The Breitling Superocean Heritage 57 Highlands is not just a diving watch; it refers to heritage, style and versatility of style in lifestyle. As a homage to the original Superocean of 1957, the Scottish outdoors viewpoint gave this limited edition a lot of its current charm; it feels more at home in the rolling Highlands, as it does on a seawater adventure.
Its retro look with a 42mm case, warm colours and high quality leather straps get it right between hardcore practicality and sophisticated appeal. It is a diver watch, but not simply a watch that survives underwater or tells a tale of a voyage across land, sea, and all in between.
Background: A Heritage Diver with a Twist
The Superocean Heritage 57 range is in honor of the first diver that Breitling released in 1957. That watch was simple, readable and classy, and it was meant to be used in scuba diving but at the same time was the type of timepiece that one would wear every day.
The Highlands version builds on that base and incorporates inspiration of the Scottish countryside. It is not only pure professional diving but versatility, style, and charm of heritage. Having colour tones and strap choices that remind of the outdoors, it takes the Superocean Heritage family into the lifestyle category - the watch would be popular among collectors and fashionable watch enthusiasts.
Key Features: Heritage Meets Lifestyle
42mm Stainless Steel Case
The case is 42mm and polished of stainless steel, which gives it a strong but smooth presence. It is lightweight and slim where tool-heavy divers are fat, and it has a retro-appeal that makes it every-day wearable.
Highlands-Inspired Dial
The dial is the same clean design with oversized indices as the 1957 Superocean, but with all-neutral palettes to match the Highland scenery: warm brown, green, as well as neutral colour palettes which meet the vintage style with the modern lifestyle.
Unidirectional Bezel
The Highlands model has an original style bezel insert that replicates the classic bezel of 1957 and adds a feeling of authenticity and allure as opposed to traditional modern ceramic bezels.
Automatic Movement
It contains a Swiss automatic calibre which keeps time well and at the same time sticks to the traditions of mechanical watchmaking.
Strap Options: Leather & NATO-Inspired
The most characteristic one, perhaps: the Highlands edition is either made on expensive leather straps with a warm and natural color or straps made of NATO-style cloth, meant to be used in the field. These straps make the watch the real cross over between the diver and an outback companion.
100m Water Resistance
Although not a deep-diver similar to its siblings, the Highlands still has a fairly good 100m water resistance and can be used in swimming, sailing or simple use in the seashores.

Being a limited edition, the Highlands is highly collectable among those who wished to have something not fitted in the regular Superocean Heritage line.
6. Versatility Beyond the Sea
Completely at home on a hike over a weekend, in a country lodge, or at a city dinner, this is a diver that is much more than a diver of the sea.
