Picture of the Day: The incredible profile of the Breitling Superocean Ref 1004
Concave bezel, domed plexy, thin case... Top elegant vintage diving watch, one of the nicest, in my opinion, with one flaw... The crown. Too small, correct, but too small. Not a pleasure game when you have to wind it or to set the time.
Best,
Nicolas

Great watch indeed, Nicolas
Just passing. Here is the big brother, with the same "saucer" bezel. Even rarer. Possibly the first waterproof chrono and one of the very first pandas? Z ...
Hhmmmmm, love this one... I spent so much time hunting it in vain!
As for the first waterproof Chronograph, let me check... This one is among the firsts, in my book... If we except the Panerai Mare Nostrum Proto, in the early 50ies.
I know
Very hard. I think you should give up and sell me your ref. 1004. What do you say? Deal? Z'
So you have a thing for more Breitlings, Amanico
Crave a boon? Got a picture showing the dial, too?
I have a few, still hunting two or three, indeed.
Picture of the dial? Here you are: ...
I really like the Breitling Super Ocean. That's one fantastic vintage!
I have a new Super Ocean and I think you can really see some of the DNA of the vintage in the new ones! Thank you for sharing the pic of your classic! ...
Amazingly daring.. Full of contrasts of dial, patina, Plexi & profile..Hodge-Podge ?.. A bit, but what a nice one !! :))
I also faintly think to remember a shot of the beautiful movement !? Thx for this Monday shot. Nice week\'s start ! Best, hs
