Hands on Breitling Superocean 44mm A17391

Hands on with the Breitling Superocean 44mm A17391, sticking with the Breitling theme this was a watch I had a short while back nice chunky lump of metal, automatic movement Breitling Calibre 17 power reserve of 42 hours. The Superocean is water resistant to 2000 metres which is great if you need a divers watch to dive to them depths not sure how many people actually use watches for the intended purposes. Breitling’s tend to have a lot of pilots watches, seem to do a fair few dive watches too but they do all have AR coated glass for Anti-reflection in the sun.


The superocean case is polished and brushed bracelet and the case size is 44mm featuring a black baton 1-6th Arabic numeral dial housing a date aperture at 3 O’clock surrounded by a black aperture square and a black rubber uni-directional divers bezel.  The bracelet is the pro 2 version which the pro 1 was awful hated that version Breitling must have realized that and brought a new version out hence the Pro 2 which is far nicer finish etc.

The current model diver Breitling’s all have a Pro 3 version bracelet which is even nicer again. The watch overall wears really well and is great value for money especially pre-owned secondhand market would say a great edition for a first nice watch.
