Opinions on the Seawolf...

I am contemplating getting my first Breitling ...

I am a WIS from when I was still very young, my focus is dive watches and have owned many brands...I must admit I never gave much thought about buying a Breitling...

I don't really like how they seem to be fixated with aviation (especially in marketing themselves). I don't like busy dials and polished watches (so that cuts out 98% of Breilting watches for me) and I don't care about planes. I am a diver and think of me more as the 'marine' kind of guy...still I know Breitling makes some sturdy, well built watches that are definitely reliable underwater so I am thinking why not give the brand a chance...

I have looked at the Superocean steelfish but cannot get around all that useless numbers and hash marks on the dial. IMHO they make it look unecessarily busy...

I like the clean dial Abyss but then it doesn't have a lume pip on the bezel....so by default I am leaning more and more towards a stainless steel Seawolf which is slightly heavier and larger than I like it to be. Any of you guys here have smallish wrists (6.6 inch) and wear a seawolf? Is it comfortable?

Also what are the general impressions of the watch?

Also do any of you own a DSSD also...which do you find the most comfy and prefer (cos then I might just go the full hog and get a DSSD )? Pics are always most welcome! Sincere thanks ...
