As Driver8 said, Breitling has a long track record of not removing old models from the site, just like they don't make a big deal of announcing when a model is discontinued. |

This keeps coming up here! (and other Forums). The Steelfish was discontinued in Nov or Dec of 2010. Breitling will keep a discontinued model on the website until most of the AD stock of the model has sold. There are several discontinued models currently on the website. It's no different than a year ago when the Superocean remained on the Website even while the Superocean II ("abyss") had a splashy section entirely devoted to it. Or when the Skyracer stayed on the website for many months after production ceased. Or the Mark VI remained on the Breitling for Bentley website. Production has permanently ceased, but new models are still in the stream of commerce. |

I've found the perfect combo for mine. Black dial with black pro2 rubber. Ratchet clasp. That I've fully brushed the top. Edges left polished.... Just like the Fish ![]() |

I picked mine up about a month before they discontined it. It's a shame, because it's my favorite model, and honestly one of the only ones I would actually pay that amount of money for. The other models are great, just not for me. |
