BREITLING SUPER AVENGER ADVICE

[Marky1012]

I have the Super Avenger below and I have always been disappointed with the 'Automatic' just above the chrono dial at 6 and am thinking about replacing the current dial with a gen dial:

A bigger picture is at the bottom of the posting.

I have found this on Ebay.

My question is: Is this a simple mod to undertake? Not a chance that I would be doing it but I want to know whether this is a simple replacement or is it more complicated than that?

All help appreciated.

The Ebay pic shows the batons are a 1 peice design...........I thought Gen's always had a split parrallel baton ??

Are you sure it's gen??

Just a thought

To me it does look like split-batons

I was thinking the same thing. Hard to tell sometimes but that looks a bit suspicious to me. The 2 oclock baton looks like one solid piece.

I think the new rep batons look better than that

It was one of my first mods and it was not hard to do. 2 things I learned that day.

Use some plastic tweezers for resetting the hands, they scratch easy. Also when you replace the chronohand after switching the dial, you have to pinch the tube a little, if you don't do that the chrono won't reset to zero.

Its a gen dial.. I would not try doing the job yourself . Gen dials make the watch. I hated the silverish dial on the rep. This is mine

I’m planned to order the exact same watch this week. Are you satisfied with this watch?

 

Ps: not topic related but are the more versions available of this watch then (version1/version2..)? And to which details should I look to see the difference? Is that the split battons?
