The Breitling Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic 40 brings a 40 mm case and Breitling’s B31 three-hand manufacture movement to the Superocean Heritage line. The 2025 redesign is offered in different configurations, including a green-dial model on rubber and a black-dial model on a steel bracelet. Breitling’s US listings showed prices of $6,500 and $6,800, respectively, before sales tax, on October 7, 2026.
What is new in the Superocean Heritage B31?
Breitling presents the B31 as part of the Superocean Heritage redesign for 2025. The brand traces the collection to its 1957 Superocean and specifically names the Ref. 1004 time-only watch and Ref. 807 dive chronograph as historical predecessors.
The central update is the B31, which Breitling describes as the line’s first exclusive three-hand manufacture caliber. Its official copy says: “The collection introduces the B31 automatic movement, Breitling’s first exclusive three-hand manufacture caliber.” The B31 Automatic 40 is a self-winding mechanical watch, not a quartz model.

Design details Breitling describes across the family
Breitling’s collection description highlights a ceramic-inlayed bezel, an arrow-shaped hour hand, a spear-shaped minute hand and a date at six o’clock. It describes mesh-metal and mesh-rubber bracelet choices across the family. These are brand descriptions of the collection; verify an individual reference’s listing before assuming every detail or strap option applies to it.

How to choose or compare a listing
- Match the reference number: AB3110361L1S1 is the green dial with rubber strap; AB3110241B1A1 is the black dial with steel bracelet.
- Check the configuration: confirm the dial, strap or bracelet, and whether the listing is for the 40 mm model.
- Verify the transaction details: compare the current local price, stock, seller authorization and warranty terms directly with the seller.
The collection includes other case sizes, but these two references establish specifications only for the 40 mm models described here; they should not be treated as a complete guide to every Superocean Heritage variant.
