Breitling Superocean Heritage AB2020161C1S1

The case measures 46mm across and 14.99mm thick. Case material: Stainless steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

Automatic, Breitling Manufacture Caliber B20, COSC-certified chronometer. Power reserve is 70 hours.

It is rated to 200 meters, about 656 feet. That is a diving rating: it is built for scuba use, not just for getting wet. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.

Per the documented Breitling scheme: the leading letter is the case material, A = stainless steel; the caliber group carries a leading B for an in-house/manufacture Breitling caliber, here B20; a letter later in the reference is the documented dial-color code, C = blue, which matches this watch's blue dial. AB2020 is the short case reference for the 46 mm Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic (the 42 mm is AB2010). Breitling does not publish this scheme. It is compiled from collector documentation and reads as a reliable guide rather than a manufacturer specification.. Reading the reference is the fastest way to confirm that a watch is what the seller says it is, before you get anywhere near the movement.
