Breitling Aeromarine Avenger Seawolf

Hi I know that Breitling is High End watches and that they use other's movement change some parts and that is it till Chronomat B01. I am very interested in this Avenger Seawolf becouse of it's beauty and especialy the crown which is master piece maybe one of the beautiest. I know there is ETA 2824 25 jewel, Chronometre certify, 300bar/3.000m/10.000ft/ depth resistance,etc........ but I never own Breitling and not really interested in mass production manufacturers-brands, but this is one of the most beautifully time pieces for my taste of course.So my posting here is to hear some info about it's quality, durability, precision and any thoughts and suggestions about this watch are good and bad from people who have had or do had this watch.
Thank You.....

Hey Mate,

Which watch are you interested in, the older Ti model or the new SS model. I have the Ti version that came with a Pro II bracelet that was swapped with a rubber strap as soon as I got home.

I have had many Omega, Rolex and Tag watches but the Seawolf Avenger is the first watch that I have kept and will have for a lot longer.

It is accurate, reliable and comfortable. The finish is perfect and I couldn't be haqppier.

Cheers

How about a little sunshine!! I love my Sea Wolf. When I picked this up I immediately got rid of all other yellow watches in my collection. This is hard to beat for a Yellow B'ling.

Durable and reliable; a great watch. My only bellyache is the lack of dive / wetsuit extension on the Pro II bracelet. Makes a nice change from wearing the Sub'.

just one thing: since we are at the topic of the seawolf, isn't the new size and that too in steel just too big and heavy?...on paper, I mean stats-wise, it doesn't look like everyone's watch...other than that, the applied,stensiled markers and sheer beauty of it is undebatable

I got a 7" wrist, it looks pretty good. It take a week or so for me to get used to the size and weight. The SS band feels comfy and looks great.

Looks great in yellow Ultra - wish I'd gone for that now instead of the blue.

Another option for you. This is my Breitling Mark VI. I think it's one of the best looking Breitling out there. It's got a platinum bezel and it's very sturdy. Happy Choosing. :)

Here is my SS Seawolf on rubber. I have a 7 1/4" wrist and it is not too big at all. As with most Breitlings, the brushed bezel blends into the case and draws the eye to the dial making it appear a bit smaller.

I have owned a lot of watches but my 2 Breitling automatics have been the most accurate and it's not even close. This Seawolf is 3 months old and has not lost or gained one second since I brought it home! Now that's accuracy.
