mrshagz Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 Just saw it on Breitling webpage.. is it too new for a rep? does it exist??
Guest HaloArchive Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 No Seawolf Chrono yet my friend There is the Skyland Chrono, any a couple others but, no Seawolf. I am sure it will be out sooner or later though. However I feel that the Breitling phase is slowly going away O.o

Guest HaloArchive Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 Slowly going away!? Wheres it going? is there a new trend? It is the fact that there is just a decreased interest for Breits lately. I remember when they were the hit with the BCE etc. I think it is because they have gotten so close to GEN now that there just, isnt that thrill of modding these anymore. At least that is what I think. Maybe Ubi or someone can chime in.
yodap Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 If you are talking about the quartz chrono seawolf it won't be repped I'm 99.9% sure, because of the movement inside. Get a Skyland!
andreww Posted July 28, 2009 Report Posted July 28, 2009 Yeah, doubt we'll see this one as the split timing superquartz is not an easy movement to rep. One interesting detail on this watch is that the pushers are magnetic, and they activate the chrono through the case. Thus, it can be used in depths up to 1000 meters, and there will never be leakage via the pushers.

The only watch In the world that has this capability.Chock one up for Breitling Mike

Luthier Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 (edited) I recently bought SuperOcean Chrono replica. http://i428.photobucket.com/albums/qq4/jstudio107/DSCF0010-1.jpg Edited August 2, 2009 by Luthier

Tom Hawkes Posted September 11, 2009 Report Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) Yeah, doubt we'll see this one as the split timing superquartz is not an easy movement to rep. They could as well put the eta movement from the flatline in it instead of the thermoline one.. the functions and layout are the same and I don't think that runs for too much.

Tom Hawkes Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 there is an eta 251.262 in the flat 6 chrono rep.. watch sells for 399usd. that movement is also used in a precista military watch from tz which is sold for around 210 euros i think.

True, that subdial layout looks correct, but the date window on the Seawolf Chrono looks to be much closer to the outer edge.
Tom Hawkes Posted September 24, 2009 Report Posted September 24, 2009 I think there is no difference between the ETA 251.262 and the ETA 251.232 besides the latter being thermocompensated. Both movements are used in gen Breitlings and both are from the ETA Flatline range.
