Which Breitling rep CLOSEST to Gen?

Recommended Posts

seoulbrova

Avenger, Super Ocean, Steel Fish?

 

Out of the three which would be the hardest to spot as being a rep?

 

I've seen the V2 and V3's on different sites but am not sure what little tells would give a way the reps.

 

Thanks

I've heard SOH v2, but can't be sourced anymore from dealers generally.

 

Lookout for member sales.

The older SOSF (Swissfish) is also a great rep if you can get one

If I purchase one for Mary at Watch-International, which would you guys recommend?

 

Also, what would be the giveaway as it to being a rep? I realize the average person wouldn't know either way but I'm curious to know what would give it away if someone knew what to look for?

 

Much appreciated...this forum is great!

Only if that average person will inspect your watch with 20X loupe.

+1 to the comments above.

 

Also do not forget about the new SuperOcean II Abyss - this is already being talked about as a new "super rep" because it is so close to the gen.

 

From the 7 Breitling reps I have, I'd probably say that the SOHv2 and SuperOcean II are the closest to the gen, followed very closely by the Seawolf and Skyland v3, then it would be the white SOSF, blue SOSF and then B01. :)

Del's right on the money with that list. Sadly the SuperOcean Heritage v2 is no longer available and we've not had a close enough look at the replacement yet to know if it's as good.

 

Pentax: Superocean 2 is available from most of the dealers including Robert. not seen it in person, but from the photos it looks very close indeed.

And the Seawolf.

 

 

That Seawolf that del has (yellow faced) looks damn close to gen...speak to him as I think it's the canine gonads...
