Emerging as a tribute to the illustrious era of travel, the Breitling Transocean collection made its debut in 1958 to meet the surging demand for refined and precise timepieces of the time. Departing from Breitling's rugged aviation models, the Transocean line swiftly gained renown for its graceful and understated design. The collection now encompasses sought-after models such as the Transocean Chronograph, housing the in-house B01 movement with a 72-hour power reserve, and the Transocean Unitime, showcasing time across 24 time zones.
Having experienced a brief hiatus, the Transocean resurfaced in 2010 with an enlightened approach that preserved its vintage allure while integrating modern enhancements. The collection expanded its horizons by introducing new dimensions, including 43 and 38mm sizes, and incorporating classic complications such as the chronograph, date, calendar, and moonphase functions. A significant evolution was the adoption of the Breitling B01 automatic mechanical movement, featuring a 72-hour power reserve and showcased through a sapphire caseback.
While the collection has been discontinued, the enduring appeal of the Breitling Transocean endures, captivating watch enthusiasts with its fusion of heritage, opulence, and technological prowess.

The Breitling Transocean is a collection of watches made for the sophisticated traveler. Introduced in the 1950s, during the golden age of transcontinental flight, the dressy line was meant to complement the robust and sporty chronometers that Breitling was known for. It was revived in 2010 with a more modern aesthetic, in-house movements, and a series of complications: date, chronograph, moonphase, perpetual calendar and world time models.
Breitling Transocean models are water-resistant to 10 bar (100 m, 328 ft), making them “splash proof”. This means they are safe for swimming at the surface and other water sports, but not for diving.
The Breitling Transocean collection has been discontinued since 2019, but models are still available in the secondary market. This move came upon Georges Kern's entry as CEO of the brand. With an effort to streamline Breitling's offerings, one can still find the Transocean's elegant charm in the Premier collection, a line of watches dedicated purely to style, with the aim of bringing of old-world sophistication back to the brand.
