That's a great shade of blue. Is that the standard blue?

Very nice Dave, I have a mate who has a 22 SAS Breitling Seawolf he is looking at off loading. Seems the market is getting flooded. Jules

I think it's a little darker than the standard blue. It looks great, I saw one for sale about 3 months ago.

Holy shit. At first I thought it was all brushed.

If they are going to polish the case sides, they should polish the sides of the links.

Still cool, but I'd have tripped had I bought it from the first pic alone. :salute:

There's one of these and a couple of other military editions on ebay at the moment. The AD I bought my Seawolves from has a few: the Ark Royal piece has the same blue dial; a real beaut.
