pcardoza Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I've wondered the same thing, especially since they are listed as having Swiss ETA movements..... I'd be more excited if there was a blue dial model listed! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 I'd take it a bit cheaper with out the Swiss, lord knows what your getting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lumbee Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I saw Seawolf and immediately though you meant Zodiac. I was disappointesd when I saw it was Breitling. I wonder why nobody has made a rep Zodiac Seawolf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcardoza Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I got one of them when they were available the last time ~~ 18 months ago. Also with the Swiss ETA. Gotta admit it runs and keeps time perfectly. It's one of my favorite pieces and a loooong term keeper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't decide if I want black dial or grey dial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I do not know guys figure 418 + shipping then send out to get movement serviced ( may get a good swiss may not) then have work done to ensure water tight ( make sure crystel set right, gaskets , silicone them whatever............). Now I just was looking at some micro brand divers a lot less, new movement you just hit the water.(not like I need to get one have plenty) I guess the question is do you want to hit the beach with a non descript brand watch that looks pretty good and gets the job done or pay a bit more and have a Breitling Seawolf on your wrist. I have gone both ways over the years and really do not care what people think (no one knew what I was wearing anyway on the rep ones 99% of time) but I do like the look of this watch regardless of brand. So could have in and ready for vacation but still would have to bring a gen diver or two just in case it craps out with 8 days daily in the Atlantic. Tough call.

pcardoza Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 And, on top of all that, I sprung for a GEN SuperOcean Black/Yellow strap to go on it for an additional $275!

tframo Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I wore my Seawolf everyday in the ocean swimming and snorkeling. No leaks. Just a freshwater rinse right after I might pick up the grey dial as well. Need one for the collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 TF , out of the box or did you send it out for a go over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tframo Posted June 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 I got it from nikkisixx. Not sure if he had it tested or serviced. I just checked the seals and case back and dunked it in a sink of water for a few hours. Didn't leak so I figured it could handle swimming.....
