I just bought this watch for the second time a few weeks ago, but this time I’m not letting it get away.

I am a total sucker for the 1950 style case. The brushed finish with helium escape valve looks perfect.

The tall, thick bezel is my favorite part about this watch. It almost looks like the porthole on a ship, thus adding to the nautical feel of the watch.

One of my other favorite bits is the crown guard lever. I really like the 1000m engraving. It’s pictured here on a Heroic black calf strap with copper stitching. It’s a great match for this watch.

A Pair of Breitlings: The Colt Oceane and the Superocean Steelfish

Once I snagged the Colt Oceane for my Fiance, I felt a little left out, so she snagged a Superocean Steelfish to match hers. I think they make a great pair!

I opted for the blue face model, and I love it. The blue is not too light, so can look black in low light, but really comes alive in the sunlight. It’s pictured here on the Pro Diver rubber strap, but I also got the Pro 2 stainless bracelet to give me some options.

Stay tuned for more photos of the Steelfish coming soon!
