It’s popularity has grown year on year with a keen following among leisure divers and watch enthusiasts. The Superocean design brief is simple – a watch that must be clearly legible and functional at depth. This lovely professional dive watch has proven that Breitling can dominate the oceans as well as the skies. More about the >> History of the Superocean here

Some recent example of Breitling Superocean sold on eBay

Most product photos on eBay are taken with great care to best represent the watch. You get to see what it really looks like (not a computer enhanced brochure photo)

All the watches shown below have been sold this year on eBay.

A Rolex Submariner alternative

The Breitling SuperOcean first appeared in 1957 – the same year as the Omega Speedmaster and just 4 years after the Rolex Submariner and Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. The SuperOcean is a classic dive watch designed to equip professional and military divers. I love everything about this watch range. Everything from it’s big bold numerals and sometimes equally bold face colours to the classic understated Heritage versions.

Perfection? We think so – the Breitling Superocean Heritage 46mm

What to pay for a pre-owned model

As with all luxury watches the key factors in the selling price are provenance, condition and full set (original box & papers). A nice clean Superocean A17266 42mm will sell for at least £2,000 – up to £2,750 for a real nice example in A1 condition, full set etc.

Similarly, a classic style   Superocean Heritage 42 should fetch anything from £1,900 to £2,500. The Chronograph models and also those with bi-colour case and strap often sell for double those prices, around £4,000 to £5,000. A BRAND NEW A17376211B1A1 Superocean 44mm diver’s watch like that shown above is currently (Oct 2022) being sold for £3,800.
