It’s always summer somewhere! Keeping this sentiment in mind, luxury watchmaker Breitling has brought back it’s SuperOcean Heritage ’57 Pastel Paradise in the form of a capsule collection for women. Originally introduced as a divers watch with the rising popularity of seaside leisure in the late- 1950’s, this watch with its rotating bezel and bold indices is the very embodiment of summer.

“This modern-retro tribute to the original SuperOcean is an exciting addition to the Breitling family of ladies’ watches. Of course it’ll look great at work, but it’s fun-in-the-sun vibe might make you want to spend a weekend at the beach,” says Breitling CEO Georges Kern
The limited-edition, seasonal capsule collection features a colour palette including neutrals like summer white and iced latte, and pops of colours in the form of the aquamarine and mint-green options. These feature tone-on-tone dials, bezels, and straps. However, it is the tangerine version with Breitling’s signature rainbow dial, with hour markers and hands coated in Super-LumiNova that steals the show. Adding to the collection, is the quick-exchange system for swapping out the Saffiano calfskin leather straps (also available in lemon and raspberry sorbet colours) and playing around with different hues.
