The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Just wondering if the bracelet on the new Seawolf is the same bracelet as on the Skyland just in a brushed version. And will it fit the Skyland?
I was thinking of having my Skyland sent to Breitling to have it all brushed like the Seawolf .
Just thinking about it...so don't hang me yet!

OK we´re not hanging you yet, but just in case that thought would go forward I´m already tieing the rope!

I wouldn´t do it, but if you feel you´ll get a kick out of it and enjoy the piece more, then you should go for it regardles of others opinnions.

... So should I start putting up the gallows?

I'll check tonight but 99,99% that they are not the same.

Its strange. I checked the chronolog and it has both cases listed at 45.4mm, so it seems like they would be the same. But, since the bracelets have a different finish, the end link numbers will be different, even if they are the exact same size. I figure it actually has to be tried to find out.

I really do relate to your wanting to get the watch brushed. I do love the brushed look myself. I have a new Seawolf, which is combination polished/brushed. It really looks amazing, but there are times that I wonder if maybe I should get the whole thing brushed.
Before I sold my Steelfish, I was going to put the PRO II from it on my Seawolf. I would have had to get my AD to order the end links. I believe they are 80 bucks for the pair.
My AD did tell me one thing. It is not difficult to get a polished watch brushed. But be very sure that this is what you want. For some reasons, it is pretty difficult to go back to polished again. I don't know all the details, but this is what I was told from a guy who is a Swiss watchmaker with lots of experience.
Cheers,
Carl
