Same here. I am actually considering the first one, the Superocean 42 with rubber and tang buckle. This model puts off some nice beach summer vibes. I’ll probably need order a short strap from Breitling. The diver pro rubber straps are only $75.

Old SteelFish SuperOcean has one of the best diver watch dials ever made.

Sorry for digging out this old post, but this beauty couldn't be left unnoticed!

Love the subtle green bezel with the black dial, date at 3 o'clock is nice too!

Anyone know how this superocean compares to the current one in terms of movement quality/reliability etc.

Thanks. It’s an A35350

It’s a wonderful watch that might be on the bubble due to an incoming Explorer if you know anyone looking ;-)

Possible Chrono-Matic

Greetings to the real Breitling collectors.

I joined this forum & thread simply because I had no other way to possibly determine if the watch shown in the pictures is a real Breitling. Frankly, I never thought I'd own one, but I found this in a flea market in Vienna recently. Now, it may be just a really good fake, but the weight and look attracted me.

I'd be satisfied if it is nothing but a knock-off, because it is really beautiful and runs perfectly. Yet, I'm still just a bit curious.

Clearly, the face has the look of a Breitling. It has very solid weight. The back has these notations: (1) 2004 Hercules, Chronograph, Certifie, Chronometer. (2) Manufacture, EN, Suisse, Etanche, 300M, 4 Jewels. Plus the number GK2188.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. If it's not real, so be it. If it is, I'd love to know what model and whether I could find a manual for it because other than keeping good time, I have no idea what the other controls are supposed to do.

Thanks.
