Hi guys:001_smile: I wanted some advice regarding what Breitling i should get for my next watch, and I figured some of you would have some opinions on the ones i have been looking at. I am currently looking at the Steelfish (A17390), the Shark (A13051), and the Superocean (A17360). I am a student so my budget will only allow me to buy previously owned sadly:T

Hi. See which model looks best on you, and which you can go with pricewise. It is good brand. I always recommend to try before buy.

What he said. Really, pick the one YOU like best. All 3 are great watches, though the Shark is an older model and hasn't been made in over 10 years so factor that into any price as it'll probably need serviced. But honestly, pick the one YOU like best and don't rely on what a bunch of strangers you've never met tell you is "best". That way no matter what it's the right choice


For me, the "best" of the 3 is the SuperOcean. Although I'm quite biased as you'll see below.... :thumbup1:

My SuperOcean and one of my favorites in the collection...

And being used as it should - DIVING! :thumbup:

Thanks for the replies:wink: Russny; I will definitely try to see these watches in person and try them on before deciding, thanks for the tip:001_smile: Scott; That's exactly why I am stuck right now, I like all three a lot. But I really hadn't thought about services:001_rolleyes: so I guess that makes the choice a little easier when it comes to the Shark. The only thing in my opinion that gives the shark an edge against the other two is its seconds hand with the the B :001_unsure: I can see why you like the superocean, that dial, and especially in blue, is a real looker!

Here's some side by side steelfish vs. super.

The steel is a little bigger and thicker.
