sugaray 0 Posted January 7, 2011 I just got a DSSD from Mary and it is my favorite watch and dominates my wrist time. I have 6.5 inch wrist and it is the biggest watch i could ever wear. The Breitling yellow avenger seawolf is one of my favorite watches that I have yet to own. I know that the breitling is about 1mm larger then the DSSD in size and thickness. How does the Avenger seawolf wear in comparison to the DSSD is my main question. I would be ordering the ULT. version from Mary. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sugaray 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Anyone have these two watches? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greg_r 81 Posted January 7, 2011 I don't have the seawolf, but the DSSD wears exceptionally large for a supposedly 43mm watch. It feels bigger than my 47mm Panerais and WAY bigger than my 46mm Breitling SOH. I strongly suspect that if you can cope with the DSSD you'll be fine with the Seawolf.

djprone 0 Posted January 7, 2011 I've tried on a gen seawolf at an AD, and have around the same size wrist as you. The gen does wear quite big to be honest. But the main thing about it was the thickness - it seemed to be over half of my wrist width. I quite liked it though, i did feel really blingy on my small wrists, but that was part of the charm i guess. Sorry, i can't be of any more help so i'll just Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sugaray 0 Posted January 7, 2011 I think i might splerge and get it lol. You can never go wrong with a watch from Mary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted January 7, 2011 The SeaWolf is larger and heavier, but better balanced on the wrist because the bracelet is wider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RS9 1 Posted January 7, 2011 I've a 6.5" wrist as well and I'll say that the Seawolf is huge. It outweighs the DSSD IMHO and turned out to be too big for me to wear. BTW, it feels quite a bit bigger than the Avenger so take that into account. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sugaray 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Its one of those things where I love this watch but deep down i feel it would look boderline silly on my small wriste Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) It's just kind of plain-looking. The Skyland's dial is more interesting to look at, IMO. Edited January 7, 2011 by AllergyDoc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Star 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Agree with Doc, that the Skyland has more personality but the Wolf is a great daily beater. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KBH 7 Posted January 7, 2011 The SOSF might look close in the pictures but the DSSD is MUCH bigger in real life. Mostly because of the thickness and the weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
part_timer 0 Posted January 7, 2011 Apologies for butting in folks..Is there a rep of the above Seawolf with a Yellow dial? If so, where best to get one? Cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted January 7, 2011 (edited) Apologies for butting in folks..Is there a rep of the above Seawolf with a Yellow dial? If so, where best to get one? Cheers. There are two yellow-dial SeaWolf reps for sale on RepGeek. Edit to add: No one apologizes for butting in around here.

Will mull joining another forum over though, cheers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AllergyDoc 40 Posted January 7, 2011 Pretty any of the dealers should be able to get you a yellow one. Josh's site Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sugaray 0 Posted January 8, 2011 Thank you everyone for all your help! I like the spimplicity of the seawolf (i cant be trusted with a 7750 mov't). there is an AD for breitlings about 45min. travel from my house. Im going to try to go up there and try on the real deal and see what i feel then lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alistairw 0 Posted January 8, 2011 I have the DSSD (from Robert), Yellow seawolf (from Andrew - Trustytime) and the Skyland Avenger (from Mary - WatchInternational). I find the Breitlings to be better balenced on my wrist than the DSSD - personal thing IMO. As previously mentioned the band is wider and just keeps it all in check. DSSD and Skyland are both exceptional watches, for me the Yellow Seawolf gets the most wrist time of the three. Either of the three are worth buying you won't be disappointed.

sugaray 0 Posted January 8, 2011 I still think that this watch is beautiful to say the least but deep down i feel that it is too big for me :_( i might end up getting another diamond dial datejust from mary instead if the breitling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
