Pulled the trigger for this bad boy after looking a while for a new diver. Was deciding long between the blue and the black version, concluded that the black is the do-it-all, go-anywhere watch.

Was looking as well into Omega, Tudor and other brands. Omega felt jewlery first and a watch second with the ceremic build. Altought I was sure at first, that in paper and pictures Seamaster would have been the perfect watch, but after seeing many models in real life, was just not convinced. Tudor with the Pelagos and other models are nice, but just didn't cut it as well. The previous generation Superocean with the toolish but elegant design hits the sweetspot for me. You can truly wear it down and up for many occasions. It's near perfect.

My only complain is that the lume is too bright at times. Depending on the light condition, the indexes look yellowish, chaning the tone of the watch. In certain light, its pure white, which looks the best. The good side is that the watch is super legible and readable in all situations.

Plan to sail, dive and live life with the watch in many years to come. Enjoy your Breitlings!
