Anyone have a Ti Breitling Avenger Seawolf?

Post by JDC222 » Thu Jun 14, 2018 7:46 pm

I haven't seen one around here for quite some time. I am "jonesing" for one again, as it is one of the few watches that I actually miss having. I have had both the Chrono and the 3 hander.

I've been on the hunt for this one...

I’ve had three of them and I know what you mean - should never have flipped them (had the chrono twice as well)

I bought most of mine from Mark (Drstr) and one from this guy who is coincidentally selling a chrono now: http://forums.watchnet.com/index.php?t= ... 8641&rid=0

Good luck brother!

Same here; just about anyone who had one regrets flipping it.

I was just looking at these on Recon yesterday. I never should have sold mine.

I still got mine and wear it often. One of the few watches I intend to keep.

I have one on a Pro2 bracelet. Original owner of course...Breitling discontinued it right around the time I got mine, if not before. In fact, my AD had to call Breitling to dig around.

Now that the summer is here, I'll be fixing to wear it again. Good luck with the hunt.

I've got the chrono, with the grey dial. I've been thinking about selling it.

Yeah, the Pro1 bracelets were the ones liked the best. Never cared for the chrono however...

An old pic of mine...reminds me that I have a mess of photos in Photobucket that I have to move to Imgur. Not looking forward to that!

I had a yellow dial and a black dial, both on the Pro 1 bracelet. Always wanted a blue dial, but ditched that plan after I stripped the crown on the yellow one. Breitling has an inner case on these, not just a simple crown tube. So, the entire inner case had to be replaced for a simple crown stripping. Can't remember the exact price but the repair was not far off $800. Sold them both after that and lost my desire for a blue one.

This thread is definitely trouble. Had no idea there was a version that had applied numbers – that looks amazing.

Good thing I have a bitch wrist. Could never get away with this one.

My coworker just bought one of these. Not a Seawolf, but pretty awesome in person.

I've never owned a Breitling, but those Blacksteel models are really good looking.

Yup. Wears much smaller withe the curved lugs and Ti case. You can always tell the difference between the two because of the white outline on the date window on the 48 versus the red outline on the smaller one.

EDIT: Here’s some other photos I found to show how it wears on a 7.5” wrist.

You can see how the curved lugs hug the wrist.
