Forum participants were extremely helpful in assisting me with my last buying decision. Just picked up a new Navi World silver with a black croc and love it. Wearing this as a dress watch. Of course, now I need another Breitling. Looking for a weekend watch and something of a "water watch" although I don't dive...just snorkel. Had a Blue Chrono Avenger Titanium a few years back that I sold and miss. Loved the titanium and the Pro 1 band.

Cant find a blue one now in titanium that's in good enough shape to consider. So looking at a new (leftover at an AD) Yellow Seawolf Titanium on Pro 2 or any Steelfish on a Rubber strap. Would like 'em both but can't do it right now.

Thoughts appreciated.

I have both. I like both the same. I would get the TI Seawolf. It is discontinued and the SOS is not. If you like titanium watches, the TI Seawolf is a keeper.

Id take the steelfish if they both had the bracelet, but the pro II might just push me to the seawolf side in this case. As long as the color works for you, I say go for it.

If it were me I'd take the Steelfish, but if you like Ti and the yellow dial, sounds like the Seawolf might be the one to go for.

I've owned both. I prefer the Seawolf. I like the size and shape of the Ti case without the weight. I could never quite get comfortable with the Steelfish, although I think it has a prettier dial. Also, they are quite hard to find on a Pro2, so I'd grab it.

Steelfish. SO amazing... but then again nothing wrong with Seawolf, either. I'm just not a big Ti guy.

I love Ti, but hate to read about problems with a Ti crown getting stripped in a Ti case. There has been a few stories here on the forum, if you use the search function. So to answer your question, for me it would be the Steelfish.

Around about how much should I expect to pay for a steelfish? Particularly the blue dial?

There have been a few through the Buy / Sell / Trade section recently (can't recall colours) so check those out to give you some idea of current pricing.
