That they made this version of the Seawolf. Is it an older model? Looks just like the Skyland...
Any information would be appreciated! :bow:

It's a new model. Looks wise it is similar to the skyland but a lot more brushed finished and it is a super quartz movement as opposed to mechanical.

I will have mine next week. :mrgreen:

I will have to consider this one vs the Skyland as I do like a more brushed finish...But I also like the chrono positions and date position of the Skyland....Time to go to the AD for a comparison in person.
Hmmmm
Thanks! :lingsrock:

Forgot to mention, it is a little thicker then the skyland (18MM) but the face is the same (45.4 MM). It is water resistance up to 1000M and the push function pieces also work at that depth. The watch is very heavy, around 150G making it heavier then the super avenger!

:shock:

Definitely go try them on, that's what I did and I now have my Seawolf Chrono on the way shortly. Be careful though you might walk out with both.

I've just found it in the 09 Chronolog. Looks like they've included the 'Regatta 10 minute countdown', similar to the discontinued M1. I'd like to see a Chrono SW in titanium.

I'd like to see some type of limited edition SW chrono for 2010 but I highly doubt it.

I traded my Skyland in for the Seawolf. I got the slate dial. I'm very happy now since this time piece is dead on time all the time!!
George if you are reading this....Thanks a LOT!!

Regatta counts down last 10 min. before start of the race.
It's the Sun Compass, I'll post photo and explain tonight when I'll be at home if nobody chimes in until than.
