The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Received in my inbox this morning from Breitling news:

"SUPEROCEAN 42 White Water
The great white sports watch

The Breitling spirit is set to make waves again with a new version of the Superocean 42 entirely clad in white from strap through bezel to dial. Ultrasturdy, ultra-sporty and water-resistant to the fabulous depth of 1,500 meters (5,000 ft), this diver's watch with a steely character has already established itself as a champion of reliability on the wrists of those with a taste for powerful sensations. In its new White Water version, it will appeal to women who enjoy mixing style and performance, boldness and excellence. Available exclusively from Breitling boutiques, this special series with its fresh and original look is equipped with a selfwinding movement chronometer-certified by the COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute). The white rubber-molded unidirectional rotating bezel and the distinctive dial are adorned with dynamically styled numerals. The thick sapphire crystal is glareproofed on both sides. The powerful lateral reinforcements protect the screw-locked crown, while a safety valve serves to balance out differences in pressure inside and outside the case. An ideal instrument with which to cross any waters with the utmost confidence, and to sail through fashions with inimitable elegance."



Nothing to add really

Well, to sail through fashions with inimitable elegance .....
Might actually sell, but what a proud heritage the name implies - and ends up on a piece of blah.
I'm getting old.

That's certainly an instrument for a professional - a professional footballer's wife that is.

I really hope Breitling are going to drop the "Instruments for Professionals" moniker soon. It's about as in keeping with their current range as marketing arctic coats in the Sahara.

Oh darn, if it only had a bidirectional rotating bezel.

Not for me but I think the more sporty girls might like it over a Michelle ceramic.

I'm telling you, guys will buy that ridiculous watch. I've been noticing an increasing number of dudes wearing white rubber strap watches. It is all I have in me not to say,"what in God's name is WRONG with you?!?"

I'm gonna buy a white navi and slap on some big white rubber. It'll make me phat.

Looks like a cheap knockoff quartz that you'd buy at some market. Sorry Big B.

Not very impressed. I can't picture any real man wearing a white watch. Shame on you Breitling.

Horrible horrible! I deleted the e-mail as soon as I saw the blasted thing.

I prefer my CA any day of the week!

Its not meant for dudes is it? I think its written in the dude law that one shall not wear an all white watch. I just hope the b is not giving some misplaced nod to the new all white speedmaster 9300, which is an abomination in anyones language.

Anyway, i think its cool for the ladies- if i saw a lady wearing one i would think she was cool since most of them have no clue about the b. I think its a good move for them trying to broaden the brand to the womens segment which they really havent been doing enough of.
