Hey everyone-
Newbie to the forum here. Hoping my first Breitling will be on Santa's sleigh! Forgive me is this is a big no-no, but just curious if anyone has tried putting the brushed Seawolf bracelet on the Avenger/Skyland? I think they are the same size, correct? Thanks.

bnewbie is the expert, but I don't think that the end links are the same so it won't fit.

End links are diffferent. Besides, it would look strange unless the case was brushed too.

Thanks for the info. I was wondering if it would look odd or if anyone had done it (and had pics). I believe the bezel is brushed on the Skyland, so was thought it might work out. Looks like the best way to go would be rubber or croco if the shiny bracelet is too much bling.

I saw the Seawolf chrono at my AD last weekend and really loved the brushed look of that, but am more interested in an automatic. They only had a blue-face Skyland on rubber, so haven't yet seen the Pro II in person.

Anyway, what a beautiful watch(es)! Hopefully I'll have my first one shortly. Until then I'll keep staring the amazing pics everyone has posted here! :bow:

An Ocean Racer with polished clasp goes perfectly with the Skyland and cuts down the bling factor considerably. One of my favorite watch/strap combos.
