Breitling Superocean Automatic 46 Black Steel DLC Blue Dial Rubber Strap M17368D71C1S1 - BRAND NEW

The Breitling Superocean has been a cornerstone of the brand's professional instrument-watch lineup since its introduction in the 1950s, establishing itself as one of the most respected dive watches in Swiss horology. Designed for serious underwater use, the Superocean family has evolved over the decades while retaining the hallmarks that made it famous: exceptional legibility, robust construction, and the uncompromising dependability Breitling calls upon for its aviation and maritime tool watches. The Superocean Automatic 46 represents the larger, more assertive expression of this lineage — sized for those who want maximum wrist presence alongside professional-grade capability.

Reference M17368D71C1S1 is immediately distinguished by its DLC and PVD treatment applied over the steel case. DLC — diamond-like carbon — is an advanced physical vapor deposition coating prized for its extreme hardness and scratch resistance, giving the 46mm case a matte black finish that is both stealthy in appearance and genuinely durable in daily use. This coating elevates the watch beyond a conventional steel sports piece, lending it a tactical aesthetic that pairs perfectly with the vivid blue dial.

The blue dial of this Superocean 46 is rendered with high contrast in mind: index markers and Arabic numerals are applied to ensure instant readability in low-light and submerged conditions, a nod to the watch's professional diving credentials. The uni-directional ratcheted bezel provides the secure elapsed-time tracking required of a true dive instrument, rotating in only one direction so that any accidental knock cannot cause a diver to underestimate bottom time — a safety feature mandated by international dive-watch standards.

Power comes from an automatic movement, meaning the mainspring is wound continuously by the natural motion of the wearer's wrist, eliminating the need for battery changes and ensuring the watch is always ready for action. The rubber strap is the ideal companion for aquatic use: it is comfortable against wet skin, resistant to saltwater and chlorine, and dries quickly, making this reference as practical in the water as it is handsome on land.
