Hey all,

Was hoping I could get a little confirmation. I purchased this Seawolf Ti from a member of this board who has good feedback/credentials. I was concerned when I received it as I was told it was 95% and came with box and papers. Though it did come with the "papers" and looks good, the person neglected to mention that the watch was purchased at a costco which I think is misleading (thats a whole nother bag of worms). Another thing that concerned me was that the booklet was for an Avenger Seawolf, not an Avenger Seawolf Ti (not sure if that's normal). Anyways, can you all confirm if this Seawolf is legit? The small 7 digit # on the caseback below the # in the box, matches the "Montre N" on the Breitling certificate.

Sorry for the crappy pics, in case you couldn't tell....this is my 1st purchase outside of an AD (and probably my last haha).

Thanks so much!

Watch looks ok, do you have a COSC certificate and warranty card?

I have the COSC but it did not come with the warranty card as it was purchased at a costco (it does have some BS costco warranty card though).

It's not an assumption, the watch is real.

The 'good' Ti Seawolf replica hasn't been available for 5 years and it had tells - the depth rating on the dial was in italics and the depth rating on the back said 300M instead of 3000M.

On the long gone, very good replica, 10,000FT/3000M is italicised on the dial and it has 300M, not 3000M on the case back.
