Grand daddy of all Breitling SuperOceans

[Dracha]

Together with the ref 807 (The Chrono version) this is where it started, in regards to dive watches , for Breitling

In all years of my collecting I have seen half a dozen or so . So you can imagine how many of these are left after 55-60 years of diving and abuse

The ref 1004 , still on its original mesh strap as pictured in the ad's we know
I havent opened it yet so I am not sure of the serial number and thus the year but 1958-1960 ?

I love it.

That is the first time I have ever seen a mesh bracelet made in such a way that it fits to the case. I cannot believe that this set up is not more common. It looks incredible.

Very cool. It looks a lot like a Memovox.

[sfglenrock]

Wow...incredible pickup! Love the unique hour markers!

[greenlightning]

That's pretty cool. I've always admired the SO Heritage, and was curious if it was an homage to a past model.

Love the mesh bracelet design with the fitted end links. Why doesn't anyone do that nowadays?
