Effortlessly reflecting the spirit of long-distance travel and luxurious long-haul airliners, this elegant Breitling Transocean Day and Date automatic men's watch is the epitome of balance and understatement. Paying tribute to the original Transocean, a grand classic which premiered in 1958, this handsome watch is fastened with a luxurious brown leather strap with white stitching and tang-type buckle. Continuing its refined and elegant lines, the 43mm stainless steel case is sealed with a screwed in caseback and a non screw-locked crown with two gaskets, and is finished with a slim bevelled bezel and slender lugs which accentuate its retro and understated aesthetics. Beneath the convex sapphire crystal which is glareproofed on both sides, the Mercury Silver dial is adorned with applied hour-markers and a subtle cross-shaped dial arrangement, as well as an extremely original display of the date at 3 o'clock and the day at 12 o'clock within an arc-shaped aperture. Water resistant to 100m, this remarkable timepiece is powered by an officially chronometer certified Breitling 45 calibre self-winding mechanical movement with a power reserve of approximately 42 hours. A beautifully vintage style which recalls the romance of intercontinental air travel, this handsome timepiece pays tribute to a bygone era with exquisite style and state-of-the-art engineering.
