Hello all!

I'm lucky enough to be purchasing my second breitling over the next week or so, I've been narrowing down my options and my shortlist now consists of a superocean steelfish with a black face, or a avanger seawolf chrono (titanium one). I am really struggling to decide between the two, does anyone have any experience with either, or both that they would like to share?
On another note, from what Ive read the titanium seawolf has been discontinued now, should I be trying to get a bigger discount at the AD because of this ? I really love the look of this watch and the extra countdown function it has , BUT I can't get it ot of my head that it's a quartz, I love the sweeping second hand on my SOH and the fact you her the odd tick tock coming from it, I just don't know if I'd feel cheated by the whole battery powered thing!

Thanks in advance for any replies

Jim

Choice has to be persoanl taste - for me the quartz would be a no-no, but that's just me.

In terms of discount on the titanium Seawolf (which was discontinued a couple of years ago), I suspect that if an AD still has one then you may be able to get a deal. Initially when pieces are discontinued there can be a rush on them so discounts actually reduce, but by this point ADs are likely looking to shift them and free up some cash.
