#5 | Breitling Colt<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

Breitling first launched their Colt<\/a> collection in the 1980s, but it was originally meant for the armed forces. Its military roots are very evident in its robust build, broad unidirectional rotating bezel, and the brand\u2019s signature rider tabs.<\/p>\n

When Breitling opened the collection to the public, it won over audiences with its combination of sturdiness, reliability, and a dynamic but readable design. With an attractive price point, it soon established itself as Breitling\u2019s most accessible model.<\/p>\n

Available in 36 \u2013 44 mm sizes; black, blue and silver dials, and a variety of bracelets.

The original Breitling Superocean <\/a>was introduced in 1957 and marked the brand\u2019s first foray into diving watches. In 2015, Breitling launched the revamped Superocean \u2013 this time, with modern updates.<\/p>\n

Just like the Breitling Superocean II<\/a>, the Superocean Heritage is inspired by the original Superocean of 1957.\u00a0To preserve the spirit of the original model, they kept the vintage look and combined it with cutting-edge technology.<\/span><\/p>\n

Available in 42 \u2013 46\u00a0mm sizes, and a choice of rubber strap, stainless steel mesh\u00a0bracelet\u00a0or leather strap. \u00a0SEE ALL BREITLING SUPEROCEAN HERITAGE\u00a0><\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
