π CASE NOTES
The Breitling Superocean II 44 is a purpose-built professional dive watch engineered for extreme capability both above and below the surface. Featuring a robust 44mm stainless steel case, a striking blue dial, and Breitling's COSC-certified Caliber 17 automatic movement, it combines exceptional durability with everyday versatility.
Rated to an impressive 1,000 meters of water resistance, the Superocean II was designed as a true instrument rather than simply a sporty luxury watch. The blue dial provides outstanding contrast and legibility while adding a vibrant character that has become one of the most sought-after configurations in the Superocean lineup.
This example presents in good pre-owned condition with honest signs of wear from regular use. The most noticeable cosmetic wear is on the bezel, giving the watch the character expected of a tool watch that has been enjoyed rather than stored away.
