What do you think is the direct rival to the Sub C in Breitling's current line up?

Unfortunately after the discontinuation of the SF I don't think Breitling has anything that rivals the SubC. I guess the Seawolf but it's a lot bigger and not as versitile as the Sub.

Agreed. The old SO and SF were farily close in as much as they were both able to call themselves professional divers, but they're now gone. The new SO's (42 and 44) are probably the closest now, but IMO that's like saying gibbons are close to humans. The Sub has evolved nicely without losing its roots and is still a pro dive watch : the new SO hasn't and isn't IMO.

I agree. I don't think Breitling has something even remotely similar to the sub c in it's current line up. About the closest you get to it is the Omega PO.

i think the superocaen 44 on bracelet is a worthy comparison.

I agree, nothing that I know of in the Breitling lineup would come close.

All black SOII is the closest. But then again, its not nearly the watch that the SubC is.
