I REALLY LIKE THE FLOWING 3 MODELS:
1.BREITLING SUPER AVENGER(BLACK WITH WHITE SUB DIALS)
2.BREITLING HERITAGE(BLACK ON MESH/LEATHER)
3.BREITLING NEW SS SEAWOLF(BLACK OR SLATE GREY WITH PRO2)
ANY ADVICE?
WHAT ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THOSE 3?
THANK YOU ALL!

out of the models you have chosen, I would personally go for the Seawolf hands down (with either black or grey face) and match it up with a black ocean racer strap.

I also looked at the heritage and thought it was very nice, but didn'y have quite as much pull for me as the awesome 2009 Seawolf ... I get the feeling it is establishing itself as the watch of the moment and everyone has nothing but praise for it.

If you can pull off the size of the SA, go for it. Otherwise, the seawolf.

The skyland is basically a SA and a Seawolf combined. You might wanna look into that one too.

it should be different color or non chrono at all.

If i had to choose one, it would be the SA. That is if you have a good wrist size to wear it. :D

You MUST go for the 2009 Black dial stick batton markers SA....easily the pick of the current models.........

Skyland is a good second - go into your AD and try them on....once you have tried the SA the others seem second rate....in my humble opinion........

You SHOULDNT buy any Breitling if you havent gone into an AD and tried them on YOUR wrist first. Believe me when I tell you that the pictures in the Chronolog and online are nice but cannot substitute seeing the actual watch on your wrist. Several times I have gone to my AD very confident that _______________ was the model for me and after I had ________________ on my wirst and several others....... I change my mind.

PS the ALL CAPS THING IS VERY ANNOYING 8)

My advice would be to try them all on, as they'll each have a different 'wrist presence'. Sounds pretentious, I know, but it's something I've felt in my own deliberations, for sure.
However, you'll almost certainly end up with all three.................................eventually.
Good selection though, my friend; enjoy the beautiful agony of choice.
