The Chrono Avenger Ti is quartz, right? Just because of that I'd go with the Seawolf between the two.

Chrono Avenger is Breitling Cal 17. Chrono Avenger M1 is quartz. I have the SW TI with yellow dial. I prefer non chrono watches, although I think the Chrono Avenger has more of a tool look. In fact, I may eventually own one.

The Chrono Avenger is powered by automatic Cal. 13 and the Avenger Seawolf is powered by automatic Cal. 17.

Seawolf Ti.
Tough case and movement.
Seeing 3000m/10,000ft on dial still brings a grin to my face.
Cheaper to service than a chrono.
Possibly best on a Pro1 with its extending link for authenticity of a dive watch?

I voted Seawolf but meant to go with Chrono Avenger. Even if you dont use the chrono, it just looks better to me.

I've owned both and both have a tough tool feel, but I voted for the CA because the chrono is handy and Leo looked so damn sexy wearing it.

If it really HAS to be ti, then the CA would get my vote. Just a nicer looking watch IMO.

I voted Chrono Avenger...love the tool look of the pushers on it, and I prefer the dial layout with the subdials on the CA. I would really like to pick one of these up as well.

Chrono Aveneger! You don't have to sit there and stare at your watch - you can cue up "Blood Diamond" and see the watch throughout the entire movie. And Jennifer Connolly. :drool:

Tom, what does it say about you that you misspelled her name to more closely resemble 'cannoli'?

It says, "Leave the gun, take the cannoli." Draw your own conclusions. "After all, we are not murderers, despite what that undertaker thinks."

Well, it depends if you'll use the Chrono function a lot or not.

But the CA is really the total workhorse IMO.
