andreww Posted October 10, 2008 Report Posted October 10, 2008 This one is being discussed at RepGeek...
alphakazi Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 HOLY $&#@!! what a beaut - obviously a gen
Dave123 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Like an idiot,i was thinking i could call up my AD and pick one up today....3-5 month wait.... Oh well.
eunomians Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Is this what you guys are calling V.2, as in the slightly different limited edition that's larger with different subdials/ etc..? I like V.1 and I'm thinking of getting it (with the correct lume at 3). Should I wait?

alant Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Recalled that watchstation may have the v1 with correct lume dot at 3.
eunomians Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 This is a gen. I don't even know if it is available as a gen yet. Either way, you are waiting! Indeed I was aware that the watch pictured is genuine. I was wondering if this model was "in the pipeline" so to speak. I know little about Breitlings aside from vintage Ref. 806 Navitimers.

I know little about Breitlings aside from vintage Ref. 806 Navitimers. Yes it is. Watchstation has a V1 updated with fixed lume dot @ 3 and triangle lume @ 12 (I call it the V3) for around $215 in PVD. Angus is supposedly releasing the V2 Blacksteel with the same blacksteel process as the gen in about 1 month, but no price. I can't imagine it will be under $300. There is no bracelet available, although some users on gen forums have PVD'd the SS bracelet.
italiano17771 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 the pic andreww posted is of the super avenger black steel. i think you guys are talking about the skyland. anyway, i really like the super bs and im sure they will be repping this one as well. if they can do the skyland, it only makes sense to the super as well. here is another pic.
Fidestro Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 italiano nailed it, you guys had this confused with the Skyland. The Avenger is slightly bigger.
JJFlash Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 The Avenger is slightly bigger. Skyland - 55mm Super Avenger - 58mm
wheaton26 Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 Skyland - 55mm Super Avenger - 58mm i'm pretty sure it's super 48mm and skyland 45mm. it's a big mother either way!
alphakazi Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 i'm pretty sure it's super 48mm and skyland 45mm. it's a big mother either way! heh - yea I'm sure he meant 45mm 55mm = the Mega Avenger 58mm, the Colossal Avenger (with adapter to use as a belt buckle)
Rikske Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 55 and 58mm measured over the lugs could be correct. My Skyland has 55 over the lugs.
triunfadorazo Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 There are a difference between andreww and italiano17771 pictures. The vertical stripes of the subdials. In andreww's are in the half right side opposite of italiano17771 half left (like the skyland) What do you think?
ChronoKing Posted October 12, 2008 Report Posted October 12, 2008 There are a difference between andreww and italiano17771 pictures. The vertical stripes of the subdials. In andreww's are in the half right side opposite of italiano17771 half left (like the skyland) What do you think? Interesting....Also note the orange hands vs. red hands on the subdials.
