Seawolf Yellow Dial Marker Colours

Recommended Posts

Dingo1974

Did the gen version of this ever come with white dial markers or is this a sure tell of it being a rep?

 

All the gen pics i've seen show black markers so I'd just like to check.

 

Thanks

It's not black, it's just the light reflection. Markers are shiny.

An Expert at this forum said no. B)

 

What was the reasoning behind the "no" advice if you don't mind me asking?

Wrong, the yellow dial Avenger Seawolf has black markers, not shiny ones, if you see a YDSA with silver or shiny markers, it's incorrect, it also comes with either 'stick' markers or Arabic numerals :popcorn:

And who was the 'expert', I don't know any experts on these fora ?

Well, expert was a metaphor, but it's probably someone here on the forum who knows more about the seawolf yellow dial than others I belive.

Or should I say he is more interested in Breitling, than mostly others are :D

He believed that this watch was not good enough. It was his opinion....and I felt the same. :)

I don't mind admitting that Pihlippe asked me about the one on sale at RWI with the white numerals as per Luthier's pic above. In my opinion, it is not a good rep of the Seawolf due to the white numerals, since, as Baldrick has also pointed out, they should be black.

 

Better to save your money for another day I reckon! :thumbsup2:
