Built to conquer depths of 2,000 meters, this professional diver comes with a rare cream dial – a striking departure from the model’s usual black or blue dials and a bold Arabic numeral layout and luminous dot indices that shine like a beacon from the ocean floor. An ideal choice for the serious collector seeking a tool watch with understated elegance; the cream dial tones down the Superocean’s rugged dive DNA into something equally at home on a boardroom wrist as it is beneath the waves.

Presents itself in mint condition with little to no signs of wear. Features a cream dial that has a warm, vintage-inspired glow and shifts subtly from ivory to white depending on the light. Showcasing a unidirectional rotating bezel which has a bold, chunky graduated scale in crisp contrast against the brushed stainless steel. Completing the look is the brushed center links and polished outer edges of the integrated stainless steel bracelet that create a perfect combination, reflecting light dynamically with each movement of the wrist.

Functions include hours, minutes, seconds, date, and dive timing. The screw-down crown on the right side of the case sets the time quickly in the first position. In the second position, it adjusts the date using the date wheel at the 3 o’clock position. The diver can use the unidirectional rotating bezel by gripping and turning it counterclockwise only. This feature helps track elapsed time underwater by aligning the zero marker with the minute hand.

With the discontinuation and rarity of the watch in this particular cream dial variant, the A17390 has become a highly coveted reference within the Superocean collection, which is truly a watch for collectors that shows the most interesting dive watches need not be the loudest. For the discerning collector who values rarity over hype, this is a chance to own a discontinued reference with a dial color that Breitling has never revisited — a quietly iconic piece that only becomes harder to find with every passing year.
