Icon20 Most desirable Breitling Superocean Heritages styles?

Good evening gentlemen,

I have just let go of my first Breitling, it was a Superocean Heritage I size 46mm. I am looking to go and get another. What are some of the most sought after models in your humble opinions?

Navitimer for a classic or Super Avenger if your wrist can support it

I like the superocean heritage 57 LE 2 but I think the other variants are very nice. Something different yet very much a Breitling. Very wearable at 42mm and the colors have so much depth.

After a visit to the AD this weekend. 2 really stood out for me.

A13313121B1A1 Superocean Heritage chronograph 44 (black dial) Very impressive watch and sits just as well as a 42mm.

The other is more classic, AB2010121B1A1 Superocean Heritage 42 in a black or blue dial. Mesh bracelet. Both are stunning.



I'm eyeing the 44 mm with the Chronograph day\date. Beautiful piece.

I’ve got the blue dial Heritage chrono with the B01 movement. I’ve had it just over 2 years and I love it. I tend to wear it on the rubber strap more but I also have the mesh which is really comfortable. I also have the Econyl nato strap from Breitling but I’ve only tried that out a few times. The shade of blue they used for the ceramic is perfect and the sunburst dial is stunning in the sunlight.

My current favorite model is the blue SOH II B20 in blue with the metal mesh bracelet, AB2030161C1A1. It's at the top of my next Breitling to buy list.

44mm is the perfect size for me and I like how the date disk wheel in the 44mm version is dark instead of white, as it is in the 42mm and 46mm version of this same watch.

Good observation! I'm going to check one out at a AD in the morning.

i'd be all over a SOH 57 in yellow or orange if they come out with something like that.

Hey, Tell me how you like\hate your chronograph. I am SERIOUSLY thinking on getting one. In fact going to look at one today after lunch. What kind of time is it keeping? Fit and how does it wear? 43 mm right?

I LOVE it !! Is a big watch at 44 mm but the fit is perfect on my 19cm wrist and in general the shape of the lugs makes it wear perfect! The time keeping is excellent at +1 to +2 sec/day . If you like it,go for it !!
