Hi guys,

Finally I got my hands on my brand new Breitling Avenger Seawolf II. I bought from the Saint Thomas Breitling Boutique trough the local Little Switzerland in Ritz Carlton Puerto Rico. They are the only ones in the Caribbean who had it. Bought it back on June 15 2013 and got it on August 3 2013. I had to wait exactly 7 weeks. The boutique couldn't ship it right away to Puerto Rico, because they had a presentation on July 19 in Saint Thomas Breitling Boutique, where they were going to showcase my watch, then another presentation in Bahamas Breitling Boutique on July 26.

During my purchase I also bought the rubber bracelet with the nice buckle. Because of the long 7 weeks wait and the exhibition they had with my watch, the manager gave me free of charge the leather strap.

These people were great with me. Nice to deal with and a great price for this new model $3,530 Caribbean price Duty Free :)

Here are the pictures I took with my iphone of this amazing watch. I'm in love with it. :)

I have never done a watch review, but I hope to be the first one soon to post one on YouTube. I haven't seen one yet on the Seawolf II. :)

Congratualtions ALex. Wear it in the best of health and I hope you have many happy memories of this watch over the years. Good pick up on the free leather. Worth the wait I would imagine.

Thank you very much!

The month & half of wait was good thanks to that leather strap. :)

I haven't switch any of the straps yet. It's been 2 weeks since I have it, and I'm still using the steel bracelet.

It will look good on leather. A bit left field, but once you settle in and start your ‘Ling obsession’, try a brown leather strap of this one. Might sound crazy, but you might also be amazed at the effect. If you’re worried by this idea, buy something cheaper than a real Breitling strap for starters. Only my opinion, but I think a black face with brown strap is sensational, especially with stainless in between. OK, I get carried away sometimes……. But. :wink:

Nothing radical crazy or radical about that I wouldn't say. Black dial on brown leather is often a great combo.

Yes, I agree really. I get poo hooed on that suggestion occasionally, but I just think sometimes its overlooked as a combo, if you get my drift. It can be devastating on the right watch, and I think this one might be the right contender. 8)

Thank you all!!

I checked the web to see how black dial with brown leather looks, and looks nice.

I'm just waiting for the tool Bergeon 6767 -F to arrive this week, so I can change the bracelet for the rubber and leather strap, and take pictures to post them :)

Im using the watch like everyday. I just cant seem to go out of the house without it. LOL

Great pics, great watch, and it sounds like a great experience. Congrats on the pick up and wear it in good health. Enjoy it. I have a Black Dial SA that I have a brown leather strap for. Here is a pic of it in the wild. IMHO I think it gives you a better idea than the website of what it actually looks like in real life. Not to say the website is bad or anything, It is actually a pretty good website.

The black dial with a brown strap is a great combo IMHO. It really adds a different dimension to my collection.
