Hey folks, I just returned from a "end of summer" family cruise to Nassau, Bahamas. I only agreed to go on this cruise because I knew there was a Breitling Boutique at that Port of Call. I purchased, I should say that my loving wife allowed me to purchase the 10' Avenger Seawolf limited edition in Blacksteel. I was also able to get a hold of the all coveted Breitling "The Book". The watch I bought was one from the back so I was the first and only to put it on my wrist and the book has never been opened so I was the first to look at its pages. Enjoy the photos!! The last is the Chrono Evo set up against my Navy NWU Uniform. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Which clasp did you go with on the blacksteel? I ordered the seawolf LE about 2 and a half months ago and I am still waiting for it. I'm hope the wait will be worth it. Originally I went with the tang buckle but after looking at pictures, and obsessing about it for about a month I decided to switch to the black steel push button folding clasp. I really think it balances the watch. Also, if you don't mind me asking, did you get any type of discount on it? |

It really completes the watch IMHO. Especially the micro-adjustment feature on the clasp. Great for larger handed people. I started my pricing at Little Switzerland and settled at the Breitling Boutique (just down the street from each other). L/S runs B/B and the price was exactly the same. I was in a "Breitling Comma" because they actually had the piece in stock so I didn't bargain. I was aware of the AD's price in the US and the Tax and Duty free pricing in Nassau beat the US retail prices hands down. I have been shopping for the blacksteel in the Blackbird and Avenger Seawolf since they were made available. The Blackbird is more of a polished blacksteel and the Avenger Seawolf is more raw and rugged in my opinion. You must be excited about receiving yours. I am excited for you. Good luck and let me know when you get yours, we can discuss the Limited Edition numbers assigned to our watches. |
