Breitling SuperOcean Automatic 42

 Breitling has just launched a redesign of its sporty sea watch. The new collection retraces the pared-down aesthetic of the original SuperOcean Slow Motion from the 1960s and 1970s, while adding modern features and a bright palette of colours. Plus, it’s no longer strictly a dive watch—surf with it, swim with it, hit the beach bar with it. In the 1960s, the emerging sport of scuba diving was all the rage, inspired by the adventures of ocean explorer Jacques Cousteau. In diving, timing was everything—measured almost exclusively in minutes—and Breitling wanted to not only provide the best tool watch for the task, but to give it a sense of style. To create this early SuperOcean, Breitling’s designers eliminated any superfluous features that didn’t support the lifesaving needs of divers underwater. A high-contrast dial ring was introduced to the crucial minute’s scale. Out went subtle indexes in favour of chunky luminescent batons for easy readability. And, in the boldest move of all, Breiting Superocean

Hublot Big Bang Unico Essential Grey

It’s not often that a grey watch is released to fanfare, but given Hublot’s history of often colourful ceramic releases, it’s actually quite cool to see a reminder of what they can do with old fashioned metal. Although metal may be an unusually standard material for a limited-edition Hublot release, the Hublot Big Bang Unico

Hublot Big Bang Integral Indigo Blue Ceramic

Material is a huge conversation in the watch world currently, considering the rise of bronze cases in some big name brands, and even stranger options such as Tudor releasing a silver watch. I once wrote about the democratisation of ceramic bezels, and it feels like a similar thing may now be happening with ceramic cases
