Superocean II

Stopped by my Breitling AD today and picked-up the 42mm Superocean II. I like the look of the 24 hour military dial...

Very nice! I'm a huge fan of Breitling dive watches. They're so unique and a true aero-marine tool. I really like that it has the original logo applied to the dial! Enjoy in good health

Very nice!

With Breitling always emphasising their aviation watches it’s easy to forget that they make superb divers watches. Long history of them too.

Some of the Superoceans I love, some less so. This one I totally do. The face is classic military and superbly legible. Every detail is right and the quality of the piece is first class. I think they work well on the calf strap too.

I came close to getting one of these myself, and am now regretting not doing so. I don’t like the new model as much.

Thanks. I was particularly attracted to the military 24 hour dial. I saw it at my ADs before Christmas, but didn't pick it up then. Kept thinking about it though, and went back this week and it was still in the case, so I bought it. My AD was nice enough to throw in the snow globe from Breitling.
