Hi, I'm about to purchase my first Breitling, i've wanted one for as long as i can remember! I have my eye on an Avenger Seawolf Chrono with a volcano black dial on a professional steel bracelet.
Having spent many hours on the internet, especially on here, i have noticed there isn't much love for the avenger seawolf chrono?? can anyone shed any light on this for me, shall i wait a bit longer until i can afford the avenger or am i just being stupid?
any insight would be very much appreciated

The Avenger Seawolf Chrono is a very stunning watch and just the perfect size at 45.4mm. Just saw the BlackSteel version (red accent) of this watch and is IMO, one of the most beautiful masculine Breitling watches ever made and easily the best looking BS model compared to the SA, Skyland, Blackbird, etc.
From the reviews that I've read, the standout feature of this watch is Breitling’s patented magnetic pushpiece system. It is also the only chronograph that is fully operational at a depth of 3,300 feet.
"This system, a Breitling exclusive, activates the chronograph controls through the metal of the case, without any direct mechanical contact. This approach circumvents the Achilles heel found in traditional chronograph cases – the holes in the case and the mechanical pusher-movement interface. Breitling’s unique system eliminates the holes, allowing this chronograph to function at extreme depths. This diver’s chronograph is also equipped with a decompression valve and a glareproof sapphire crystal for optimal readability. Breitling’s SuperQuartz caliber provides a level of accuracy ten times superior to that of standard quartz movements."
