Breitling taps into its extensive experience with underwater adventure with the new Breitling Superocean 44 Special.
Since 1957, the Superocean line has been dedicating the finest technology to serving diving professionals and devotees of aquatic adventures. With its sturdy steel case, its ultra-legible dial and rotating high-tech ceramic bezel, the new Breitling Superocean 44 Special, available in black or blue, plunges securely to a depth of 1,000 m (3,300 ft) – you know, just in case.
In addition to a rotating bezel in ceramic, an ultra-hard and scratch-resistant material designed for the most extreme missions; a black or blue bezel, matching the dial, and a steel case that is satin-finished on top and polished on its sides and crown, the Superocean 44 Special features all the distinctive characteristics of an authentic professional diving watch.

A security valve serves to balance out pressure differences inside and outside the case when diving, while large luminescent indications ensure excellent legibility, with baton-type hands clearly distinguishing hours from minutes. A twin-gasket screw-locked crown ensures the timepiece’s internals remain bone dry, while the bezel’s unidirectional rotation system, with its ratcheted profile ensuring simplified handling, even with gloves, avoids any inadvertent extension of dive times.
The model’s sapphire crystal face is glare-proofed on both sides to enhance legibility in the heat of the action, while within, a mechanical self-winding movement beats with precision.
