Breitling Superocean Automatic 42 Black Dial Black Rubber Strap Watch For Men

Performance and style for all your water-based pursuits.

Rooted in the bold simplicity of Breitling’s dive watch heritage, the Superocean Automatic 42 combines the clean, legible lines of the iconic Slow Motion with modern robustness. This is a watch built for real-world water sports and everyday wear alike—where timing matters underwater and style counts on land.

Heritage reimagined for today

From the 1960s dive-era race against time, this model distills purpose down to what divers need: reliable readability, rugged construction, and a design that remains unmistakably Breitling. The result is a watch that honors its heritage while embracing contemporary materials and finishes—most notably the scratch-resistant black ceramic bezel and a bold, legible dial that stays clear from the glare of sun and spray.

Why this watch stands out

  • 300 m / 1000 ft water resistance: Ready for professional diving, swimming, and all water-based adventures.
  • Black ceramic bezel: Scratch-proof and long-lasting, with a precise diving scale and a luminous starting dot for quick orientation.
  • Anti-Reflective sapphire crystal: Minimizes glare for easy reading in bright conditions or underwater.
  • Stainless steel case with a brushed and polished finish: A resilient shell that looks refined in any setting.
  • 42 mm case, 12.5 mm thick: A balanced presence on the wrist that suits both athletic and urban wear.
  • Automatic chronometer movement (Breitling Caliber 17, COSC certified): 28,000 vph (4 Hz), 26 jewels, ~38 hours of power reserve for dependable accuracy you'll feel every day.
  • Bracelet compatibility and comfort: Black rubber strap with a push-button deployant buckle and quick micro-adjustment up to 15 mm for a secure fit over rash guards or wetsuits.
  • Dial and markers: Black dial with a silver flange and luminous hands/markers for outstanding legibility in low light and underwater.
  • Safety and practicality: Screw-in crown, solid case back, and a unidirectional bezel to prevent accidental time misreads during dives.

Design details that matter in the real world

The Superocean 42 pairs a robust stainless steel body with a sophisticated look that transitions from nautical adventure to city dining without missing a beat. The combination of polished hands, appliqué hour markers, and a luminous fill ensures you can read timing at a glance, whether you’re surfacing after a dive or navigating at night on the town.

Who is this watch for?

Ideal for divers who demand proven water resistance and legibility, swimmers who want a timepiece that stays readable in any environment, and style-conscious travelers who won’t compromise on accuracy or build quality. If you want a single watch that performs underwater yet pairs effortlessly with smart casual and sportier outfits, this Breitling Superocean is a compelling choice.

Practical tips and best uses

  • Use the micro-adjustment to achieve a precise fit over wetsuits or rash guards—no tweezers or pinches required.
  • Keep the sapphire crystal clean to preserve optimal glare reduction; wipe with a microfiber cloth after exposure to saltwater.
  • Aim to service the COSC-certified movement on a routine schedule to maintain chronometer-grade accuracy.

Performance and style for all your water-based pursuits. In the 1960s, the new sport of scuba diving was all the rage. For divers, timing was everything, and Breitling set out to give them the most clear-cut dive watch possible by eliminating any feature that didn’t support their lifesaving needs underwater. This pared-down watch was named the Slow Motion. What remained were clean lines, chunky luminescent indexes, squared-off hands and a high-contrast dial ring, all aimed at maximum legibility. Practical, yes. But what people really fell in love with was the look.

The new Superocean retraces the Slow Motion's celebrated design codes, while adding modern features, like a ceramic-inlayed bezel and brightly colored dials. Broad hands and indexes in luminescent Super-LumiNova® allow for easy readability underwater. The watch is water resistant to 300 m (1000 ft), as well as being shock-, sand- and saltwater-resistant. The bronze version uses a special alloy that has excellent resistance to corrosion, yet will still develop a subtle patina over time that makes the watch even more unique. The two strap options (rubber and metal bracelet) have a folding clasp that allows for micro-adjustments of up to 15 mm for easy wear over rashies and wetsuits. Its scratch-proof ceramic inlayed bezel will never wear or fade. For safety, the bezel is uni-directional on most sizes and bi-directional with a patented lock on the 46 mm. Best of all, this is no longer strictly a dive watch—surf with it, swim with it, hit the beach bar with it, then wear it out to dinner. The Superocean perfectly balances the nostalgia of its heritage with a fresh new look.
