Aeromarine Colt Vs Seamaster

Hey Omega Ladies & Gents (although probably more of the later)... Tyler here.

A few weeks back, I posted a couple of questions regarding the toughest Omega watch, and received some very helpful information regarding water resistance, shock resistance, and potential movements... needless to say, the Omega Seamaster Quartz looks pretty appealing on all fronts.

Now that I know what Omega model might work best, I thought to compare it to some other models. The toughest competition would be from the Breitling Aeromarine Colt (Quartz of course).

Given that both models are quite similar, can anyone offer any advice beyond which model I "like" more? Does either watch have reliability issues that I should be aware of?

Any information would be great... especially if you have any experience with Breitling watches.

Take 'er easy...
