Make sure that you spend some time trying on all the models, especially the bigger ones like the Bentley.
I purchased a new Steelfish in February, and really love it. I also love the Avenger Skyland. So much, that when my AD had a Blacksteel in at the beginning of March, I bought that too. I really love the watch, which I wore every day for for about 5 months. When I started to wear the Steelfish again, on the weekend, I realized how much more comfortable it is on my wrist. It is not as thick, for one thing, so I am not worried about it catching on things like the Blacksteel. It is far more comfortable to wear all day, and I am now wearing the Steelfish all the time including at work. I have my hands in machinery all day, and find I am not getting nearly the scratches as well. I think the Blacksteel is really just too big for my wrist. I find both watches to be equally aesthetically pleasing, just in different ways.
Anyway, I am sold on my Steelfish, and will soon be putting the Blacksteel up for sale. I find that I am not one to collect watches, and am very happy to have the same one on my wrist all the time. I had thought about a Blackbird at some point, but that will be down the road if I sell the Steelfish.
Hope you will let us know your decision.
Cheers,
Carl
