Description
The Breitling SuperOcean Automatic 42 ref. A17375211I1S1 is a modern professional dive watch that exemplifies Breitling’s legacy of robust, high-performance timepieces, making it a standout in the Breitling watches lineup. The 42mm stainless steel case (12.56mm thick) delivers substantial wrist presence with brushed and polished finishes, while the unidirectional rotatable 60-minute dive bezel (black insert with luminous pip) ensures precise timing for decompression and safety stops. Water-resistant to 300 meters with a screw-down crown and helium escape valve, it’s built for serious diving and saturation work.
The vibrant yellow dial provides exceptional underwater legibility with large luminous indices and hands (Super-LumiNova), complemented by a date window at 3 o’clock. Powered by the reliable Breitling Calibre 17 (automatic, 28,800 vph, 26 jewels, 38-hour power reserve), it offers consistent accuracy and dependability. The stainless steel bracelet adds durability and comfort for extended wear.
This excellent-condition example comes as a complete full set (original box, warranty card, booklets)—ensuring authenticity and strong value at $4,450 USD (competitive with retail ~$5,200–$5,500 and secondary market $4,000–$4,800 for similar mint pieces).
Among Breitling watches, the SuperOcean Automatic 42 sits in the professional dive category—contrasting aviation-focused Navitimer or Chronomat with pure dive utility (300m WR, helium valve). The yellow dial variant offers high-visibility flair over black or blue options; compared to Rolex Submariner or Omega Seamaster, Breitling provides bold design and excellent value. Versus Tudor Pelagos or Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, it balances heritage and modern specs at an accessible price.
Occasions suit this SuperOcean for diving/snorkeling (300m rating), travel, sports, or bold casual wear—the yellow dial adds personality to wetsuits, board shorts, or jeans. Less ideal for ultra-formal (opt for Navitimer) but excels in active, adventurous lifestyles.
Deep insights: The SuperOcean line (since 1957) is Breitling’s flagship dive collection; the Automatic 42 (2020s update) features refined proportions and Calibre 17 reliability. Yellow dial variants are eye-catching and highly wearable—strong resale potential due to Breitling’s rising brand momentum.
