Well i've place a deposit on a seawolf avenger yesterday, but i'm now not sure of the face colour. Tried the yellow one on but i wanted to see the black one so they are going to get one in for me (cheers Goldsmiths) Image
What do you lot think?Image

Just for a bit of fun i've tried to put up a poll too.

I really like them both but I feel the black would be daily wearer.

Yellow is far more striking and bold IMHO, but black will be much easier as daily wearer.

Go for the yellow Mr Sherlock! If you were only going to own one watch then black would be easier to wear everyday, but if you have a number of watches then yellow has got to be the way forward. I always reckon the yellow goes very well with the colour of the titanium too.

I agree with the point made earlier if its your first watch then I would go with the black.

Cheers for the replies guy's, I already own an omega seamaster and the breitling won't be an everyday watch, but i will be using it for diving every now and then.
I had never seen a yellow one "in the flesh" so to speak and thought it would be to bright, but it wasn't, now just gonna compare the two when they get the black one in.
I'll keep you all posted

Sherlock :D

Its quite simple:

If You have less then 3 watches, go for the black one, if You have more or plan to have more, go for the yellow one.

Yup!! I have to agree w/ alien, Yellow is a bold color. I was going to get one and my wife told me that I needed to be careful because it was just a BIG YELLOW WATCH, and in ten years it would still be a BIG YELLOW WATCH. But if you like the color and you have several other watches, I say go for the color that you like the best. 8)

I like the yellow, it's different. For practical purposes, I voted for the black face. I own two black face watches and they go with just about anything. Either way, you can't go wrong. They are both great looking timepieces.

I tried on the white one just the other day.. and I like it the best now!!! But Between the two, it is about how many watches you have.. you have lots? Then go for Yellow, but Black is the safer bet.
