Breitling Superocean 36
Hey guys,
Thinking about getting the Superocean 36 but there is not much reviews on youtube. For those who own this watch, do you mind sharing your experience of the watch? What you like and dislikes....really love the look of this watch. Is the lume blue or green? |

I bought the 36 in orange for my wife as a fun summer watch for the pool and beach. She likes the watch but a few things you should know.
1. I have the 42 with rubber and adjustable clasp, which is super comfortable. The 36 rubber, for some reason is stiff and uncomfortable. Also not available with the adjustable clasp, only the tang buckle. If you go rubber, plan on switching it out as we did to another rubber strap (I think we bought a few Barton straps which are working out great. No experience with the bracelet, but I do have an Avenger on bracelet and it is awesome. 2. The 36 is a small watch, so try it on first if it is for a man's wrist. It is not like a normal 36, because the addition of the bezel make the dial very small. If your wrist is more than 6.75, I would consider trying on the 42. As far as the movement, the Breitling 17 (ETA) is COSC certified and mine runs +1 second a day at worst. Excellent I love the watch, and it has been very reliable. Great value, we wear them in the water constantly without w/r issues. Best of luck |

Great looking piece! I'm a huge fan of the SuperOcean, in fact I have a second A13340 on the way from a. eBay / Chrono24 seller in Japan right now via DHL.
Would like to see the above model in person, it has traits from my favourite Breitling era. |

Not the best example.
