Brice...that is HOT!!!26.gif

The Breitling Avenger Seawolf is definitely on my wish list, and this one is looking hardcore!!!

Would love to hear your impressions (especially comparing contrasting to your Steelfish X-Plus) as this steel version of the Avenger Seawolf has got to be quite hefty and with mucho wrist presence given the advertised dimensions (especially the thickness).

So what do you think??? Please do tell!!!

Thank you chris.
This watch just has an amazing dial I much prefer and always have to that of the Steelfish with its big round makers. Looking at the face the Seawolf is just incredibly beautiful and cleaner than the Steelfish, it also doesn't look bigger and really isn't. However it's thicker by a few mm and heavier, it's profile is huge!!! It's about the same size as the DB 2k I used to own but it wears better and smaller looking straight at it and more comfortable too I'm sure it's a lot due to the awesome Pro II bracelet!!
I'm dying to try it on a strap, I think it'll look cool and lighten up the load:)
I've always wanted a Seawolf but never dared to pull the trigger. But after trying the Steelfish XL, I though I could maybe handle it.... And an opportunity came up for me to get this one by putting up little cash as I traded two watches for it and just added a little $.
It's a beast for sure but it wears much better than it's size suggests even on my 7" wrist!

Thanks for the info Brice!!! Very helpful...I had seen some profile shots of this one and it looked like a beast (I don't know why I was so concerned since I have 2 Megalodons which have just a bit of profile and wrist presence too!). I agree that putting this one on a strap will lighten the load just a bit, it looks spectacular on bracelet or strap from what I've seen. This one will continue to remain on my wish list!!!!

...and I agree with Mark...we should repeat and continue this discussion in the NEW ARRIVALS Area!!!!

Enjoy it amigo!!!!
