The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hello to everybody !
As a long year Omega owner I decided to change brand
So I decided to go for Superocean, I really like combination green on white, but this combination is very rare and most of the shops doesn't have this watch.
Does anyone have pictures of this watch ? Or maybe someone have this watch and would like to share ?

Best,
Nikola

Hmmmm....wasn't this an Asian LE for some nation's anniversary of some sort a few years ago? It came in both the 46 mm and the 38 mm if memory serves....sorry that I cannot remember the country. (Would the member who corrected me on said nation a few years ago shed some light on this?)

Then again, I have been so ill informed on what Breitling has been putting out that there may indeed be a white dial, green bezel available as a non LE.....

If memory serves, the green bezel/white dial SOH was a Limited Edition for the Far East market - Singapore rings a bell. I think it was either a 50 or 250 piece run and is very hard to find. I asked a private watch dealer I know to see if he could find one a couple of years back and he drew a blank. If you find one, and you like it, I'd say snap it up asap.

EDIT - JBBB just beat me to it.

Interesting,
If you look on their website you will find this combination as regular one on heritage 42.
Maybe it is new option ?

Oh right when you said it's hard to come by, I was assuming you were talking about the 46mm version, which as JBBB and I said is hard to come by as it was a Far East LE.

If it's the 42mm version you are after, then yes, it's not an LE and while you may not see many in the shops, any Breitling AD on the planet will be able to order one for you. Depending on where you are in the world, I'd suggest using one of the 4 forum sponsoring AD's.

Thanks Driver,

I will, but I'm interested how it looks ... And would like to see some live pictures if its possible...
I think you agree with me that watch may look completely different from AD pictures.

Best,
Nikola

I think just rare at the moment because it's new and still making it's way to the market.

The old Singapore LE was 100 38s and 100 46s if memory serves.

put that bad boy on green croc....awesome

I really like both of those, out of the two I would personally go for the blue.

Blue is 38 ...
BDW guys what are you think about 38 size ?
As I saw over the net 38 doesn't seam small at all ...

Sizing is, as always, a personal call. 38 mm is way too small for me @ 6 foot 3 inches, 250 lbs. It simply gets lost and looks odd (and why many of my older pieces have become safe queens and why my petite wife wears 'em).
In the end, try one on in the metal, so to speak, and make your own mind up.

I owned the SOH46 and it wore well considering the large dimensions. I would imagine a 42mm case of the same style would be a great fit for an even larger public.

Great looking and unique combo. But may I also suggest considering a rubber strap option as a second option. That would look slick!

Im just the opposite. I think the green looks awesome.

And I agree, size is always personal choice
