DID BREITLING MEET ALL MY EXPECTATIONS???

HELL YES IT DID!!! and many more. im blown away by my new seawolf, i cant seem to stop looking at it. the watch is 45.4 mm wide and 18mm thick so its not a small watch but not to big either, it weighs in at 159 grams so its very compfortable to wear. the fit and finish is perfect in every way, i went over the entire watch with a magnafirer and can not find a flaw anywhere. the watch is not at this time running within cosc specs, its at +7 to 8 seconds a day. im not worried about it yet, i will give it a couple weeks to see if it will come down and if not i will send it in for regulating. the packaging is second to none. i had to laugh at my self, never owning a breitling when i first opened the watch box, there was no watch to be seen and i about flipped out. but there is a second soft case inside which holds the watch. the seawolf is a great addition to my collection, it has taken the top spot, but the rgm is a close second. my collection has gone in the same direction as have others who have been doing this for quite some time, its no longer about quanity, its now all about quality!! thanks guys. steve

Welcome to the club. Great watch great brand.

Great pics Steve!

I feel just like you do about my Seawolf, it is the KING of my collection!

Glad you are enjoying yours so much!

Impressive Steve, I'm envious

Nice pick up.

Enjoy that bad boy.

what's not to like with this Breitling, great looking in every way.

I think I like this dial color the best

Great watch, great pictures! Congratulations!

thanks guys, its awesome when you get a new watch that is every thing and more that you had exspected. hey ron, when i saw the slate grey dial i knew it was the one i wanted, when i called to buy it, they only had the blue dial in stock. but i stuck to my guns and waited until he got me the grey. thanks again steve

Steve you rock my friend! i own three Breitlings and they all have meet my expectations and then some, if i could just get the damn blue steelfish from Big E i would have all the bases covered and could be looking for an on-deck hitter!! Alot of guys dont care for Breitling and to them i say YOU SUCK;-)

hey trevor, i dont know how anyone could not like breitlings? but everyone has diferant taste. i have noticed that guys that have breitlings in there collection never stop at just one. i for one will always be on the look out for number 2 ect. they have a lot in there collection that i realy like the designs of and i now know there quality. thanks again trevor for all of your help. steve

That looks really nice.
That's the color dial I would get.

I'd like to have the Seawolf or the Skyland.

Now I'm leaning toward the Seawolf.

Great pictures of a great piece.

Enjoy.

Again, awesome watch. I've only owned one B'ling (an Aeromarine Colt GMT) and was very impressed with the quality. I'd love to own a "mini" Steelfish (42mm) or the Seawolf (possibly in titanium).

Congratulations Steve! I too have become a fan of Breitiling. Glad the watch was to your liking and them some!

Steve, when I saw you had picked this watch up, I knew it was most likely going
to be one of, if not THE favorite in your collection sir ! ..I don't have a Breitling,
but remember how Alan, Trevor, and others said that the watch is at such a high
level, that it all becomes about quality, not quantity like you had said. It's
something to hear how much you are enjoying this watch. Literally sounds like
the kind of watch that you will never grow tired of. Between the historical brand,
FANTASTIC looks, and TOP notch quality, this Seawolf just has to be pure FUN
to have, and it also must be incredibly satisfying TOO ! ..It's very cool to see just
how much you enjoy, as well as appreciate this watch sir ! ..Thanks for the update,
along with extra pics by the way !!!

Thanks John but i was hoping for a brother in-law price since i've hooked Big E up a few times!!! Eric is never going to let that killer piece go, i just like to bust his, well i just like to bust his! Eric is a great guy and that Breitling was one of if not his first really fine watch he purchased and i like to remind him of it every chance i get! That said i think 1700.00 is too much when you can find a new piece for 2 grand if you look hard enough!!

I hear you Trevor.....just hoping to break down Eric a little so he would feel bad (as he should for all you have done for him ) so then he would basically just hand the watch over to you. SORRY for the HIJACK of your thread Steve......I apologize.

Congrats, it sure is beautiful!
A timepiece to be very proud of.
Great color on the Breitling, and the pics are excellent.

Great watch. Really tremendous. You did a fine job with the pics. I love everything about the Seawolf. The dial and numbers on dial. Of course the bracelet. The case size is just about perfect. Just a beautiful dive watch. Congrats to you. I can imagine how pumped you are. That is a watch I want to add to my collection someday soon.

Welcome to the Breitling club! I bought my first Breitling in '96 and still own that one. I have always been of the opinion that Breitling offers the very best quality and good looks you can get for the money. Enjoy yours Steve!
