Breitling Superocean Heritage B31 "Kelly Slater" automatic blue dial mesh bracelet 40 mm

A Superocean born from the waves

Launched in 1957, the Superocean Heritage has always been much more than just a diving instrument. It embodies a lifestyle focused on water, style, and freedom. In 2025, Breitling continues this story with an exclusive edition dedicated to Kelly Slater, legendary surfer and brand ambassador. Produced in a limited edition of only 500 pieces, this timepiece celebrates the lush nature of Hawaii, Slater's adopted home, with a strong, evocative and unique design.

The collaboration is not just aesthetic: it reflects a shared vision of sustainability, performance, and luxury connected to the environment. This steel version with a mesh bracelet embodies the fusion of vintage refinement and a spirit of adventure.

The model: a unique signature, full of meaning

The AB31101A1C1A1 reference is instantly recognizable by its deep blue dial adorned with a tropical leaf motif inspired by the coastal jungles of Hawaii. This exclusive decoration plays with the light depending on the angle and contrasts elegantly with the applied hour markers and signature hands of the collection. A discreet date window at 6 o'clock completes the ensemble.

The 40 mm steel case is topped by a smooth, shiny blue ceramic unidirectional rotating bezel. The retro yet luxurious steel Ocean Classic Milanese mesh bracelet anchors this watch in the line's historic heritage while offering a comfortable and visually distinctive fit.

The sapphire caseback is engraved with “Kelly Slater – One of 500,” and each watch comes in an exclusive tropical case, accompanied by a personal message from Slater himself.

The B31 caliber: the manufacturing soul of this edition

At the heart of this limited edition beats the B31 caliber, a three-hand automatic movement with date, developed in-house by Breitling. It offers a power reserve of 78 hours, bidirectional winding, a frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour, and is COSC-certified.

Reliable, precise, and durable, it gives this boldly styled watch authentic horological depth. And through the transparent sapphire caseback, it reveals part of its meticulous architecture—discreet, but very real.
