Here are a few wrist shots of my new Steelfish. I am absolutely thrilled with it, to say the least. Taken by my buddy Dan this a.m. - a beautiful Fall morning in Vancouver. The photos may be a bit on the dark side, but I think they have brought out the true colour of the beautiful dial, better than I thought. Even in the light, the dial colour seems to bring out a very subtle green tone of the lume on the markers. This is my second Steelfish - my first had the black dial - and I am even more impressed the second time around!

A very happy guy! There is nothing like a new watch, to make a perfect weekend!

The side shots give a good idea of the beautiful Breitling leather strap, and how great the proportions are with this watch.

I am very pleased with these pics, considering they were taken on an iPhone they turned out especially well.

Cheers,
Carl

awesome pick up there. The silver steelfish looks great on brown leather :lingsrock:

Needless to say, I am sure you are having a great weekend.

Great pics. I love the SOSF and the silver (cream) with any brown band is a winning combo.

Very nice Carl! I picked up the same strap a few weeks ago and it has quickly become my favourite. My 1903 has an ivory white dial colour also and the combination works really well.

The steelfish looks great on your wrist, nice solid presence and a good size for you. Congratulations on a great choice.

Hi S,
Great to see another Vancouverite on here!
Actually, lunch on Commercial Drive. At Stella's. It's sort of my local. I can just walk up the hill 2 blocks, then I'm home!
Funny thing, I left work early on Friday, to go into Time & Gold downtown, and have what I thought would be one last look at Breitlings, before I finally decided to wait and get another Rolex. In my mind, I was hoping that they would have either a black or blue dial Steelfish, with the Pro II bracelet, to look at. They had neither, and I ended up getting this one. I am so impressed with it, I wish I could get all three!
Cheers,
Carl
