What to know

The Superocean Heritage B01 Chronograph 42 reference AB0156161C1S1 brings chronograph mechanics into Breitling’s more elegant dive-watch family. Its 42mm steel case frames a sunburst-blue dial with tone-on-tone counters, a matching ceramic bezel and the collection’s signature arrow hour and spear minute hands. A blue mesh-textured rubber strap continues the colour and surface treatment beyond the case.

Manufacture Calibre 01 provides automatic winding, COSC certification and approximately 70 hours of reserve. The chronograph records quarter-seconds, 30 minutes and 12 hours, while the case retains a screw-down crown, unidirectional bezel and 200-metre rating. Introduced with the redesigned Superocean Heritage collection on 11 June 2025, it connects the modern line directly to Breitling’s pioneering 1957 dive chronograph.
