Congrats. An iconic watch IMHO. Had the same model for a couple of years but it was just a little too big and heavy for my wimpy wrist so sadly I sent it on to a better place.

I saw one at my local Breitling AD yesterday and was really impressed. I think the Steelfish on rubber might be a great diver/beater.

Very nice, Matt. I think your Pro II bracelet complements the Steelfish much more than the Pro I that mine came with. This watch also wears nicely on the Diver Pro "hershey" rubber.

I really like the brushed s/s bracelet. Think I'm gonna leave this one this way and have this one to wear if I want the rubber strap

Diver Pro I is often called the "hershey" strap because of the way the Breitling name is carved into the rubber. Here it is in 20mm:

Congrats! Very nice watch, that's my favorite dial for that model. I saw one tonight in a case at an AD when I was getting my Abyss sized. I showed my wife and we both were drooling over it! Enjoy your new watch!

Colt GMT might fit small wrist better.
