From the Breitling press release...

" In 1957, having already established its mastery of the skies, Breitling set off to conquer the maritime depths by launching the Superocean, a diver’s watch featuring a monohull case and armored glass guaranteeing water resistance to 200 meters (660 feet) and representing an exceptional technical feat at that time.

Designed to equip professional and military divers, and particularly special troops, the Superocean soon gained a following among enthusiasts of leisure diving, an increasingly popular activity. Over the years, Breitling has enriched this legendary line by developing ever more efficient models in simple and chronograph versions, boasting water resistance to depths of 500, 1,500 and even 2,000 meters.

The successive generations of Superocean models have distinguished themselves by their magnificent technical qualities as well as their peerless functionality and readability. Today, Breitling pays tribute to this seagoing instrument by creating Superocean Héritage, a diver’s watch that is more than ever in its element."

Hope this helps.

They're around. Prices have been run up since the SOH, but they are still one of the more affordable vintage Breitlings.

Do you guys have more tech specs on the watch? Wouldn't mind adding it to the database..

Model 807/A with an automatic Breitling 125 movement (don't ask for details on the movement as I have no idea)

Water resistent to 20 ATM / 600 feet.

Movement is accessed from the front of the watch to prevent water resistance problems with a traditional caseback.
