Q: What is the Breitling Superocean 46mm Rare Colour Full Set watch?
A: It’s a Swiss‑made Superocean with a 46mm stainless‑steel case, a striking turquoise unidirectional bezel and a black dial with date. It’s powered by an automatic, chronometer‑certified movement and comes on a stainless‑steel mesh bracelet. This limited edition was produced in 1,000 pieces and is delivered as a Full Set with box, outer box and certificate.

Q: Is it water‑resistant and suitable for swimming or diving?
A: Superocean models are designed for aquatic use and are typically rated in the 200–300m range depending on the exact reference. As this is a pre‑owned watch, water resistance cannot be guaranteed without a fresh pressure test. Ensure the crown is fully screwed down, avoid hot water/saunas, and have gaskets and seals checked before swimming or diving.

Q: Which movement does it use and what is the power reserve?
A: Many Superocean 46mm variants house the Breitling Calibre 17 (COSC‑certified automatic, based on a Swiss ETA/Sellita), with an approximate power reserve of 38–40 hours. Exact calibre can vary by reference; contact us and we’ll confirm the movement in this specific piece.

Q: How do I set the time and date safely?
A: Unscrew the crown anti‑clockwise. Position 1: wind (20–30 turns if stopped). Position 2: set the date (if applicable). Position 3: set the time. Avoid changing the date between roughly 8pm and 2am to protect the mechanism. When finished, press the crown in and screw it down firmly to maintain water resistance.

Q: How does the 46mm size wear, and will it fit my wrist?
A: 46mm offers a bold, sporty presence best suited to medium‑to‑large wrists. This bracelet fits up to approximately 20cm; we can size it for you before shipping and advise on alternative straps if you prefer a different fit or look.

Q: What does “Rare Colour” and limited edition mean here?
A: It refers to the uncommon turquoise bezel/dial combination produced in smaller numbers. This particular release was limited to 1,000 pieces, enhancing collectability and uniqueness within the Superocean line.

Q: What materials are used (case, crystal, bezel, bracelet)?
A: The case and mesh bracelet are stainless steel. The crystal is typically scratch‑resistant sapphire with anti‑reflective treatment. Bezel insert material can vary by reference (steel/ceramic/aluminium); we’re happy to confirm the exact spec for this watch.

Q: How do I operate and care for the bezel and crown?
A: The bezel is unidirectional—rotate anti‑clockwise only to time intervals. The crown is screw‑down: unscrew to wind/set, then screw down firmly. After saltwater use, rinse the watch in fresh water and dry with a soft cloth. Do not operate the crown or pushers underwater.

Q: Can I change the bracelet or use straps, and what is the lug width?
A: Yes—compatible Breitling bracelets and straps for the specific Superocean reference can be fitted, and we can size the mesh bracelet for you. Many Superocean Héritage 46 models use a 24mm lug width; we can confirm the exact width and recommend strap options.

Q: What accuracy and service interval should I expect, and how do you guarantee authenticity?
A: As a COSC‑certified automatic, expect accuracy around −4/+6 seconds per day when properly maintained. Divers typically benefit from servicing every 4–6 years, with seals/pressure‑tests checked more frequently if you swim. A Retro Tale professionally authenticates every item and this watch includes the Full Set (box, outer box, certificate). We also provide a 12‑month mechanical guarantee.
