Well its been in the works for some time, went into Andrew Michaels here in the UK, and fell for the Avenger gange liked the seawolf but only having 7 1/2 inch wrists thought it may be a little big on me so went for the Avenger GMT II, told one of the first in UK with numbers instead of battons. Would also like to say how fantastic Sam at Andrew Michaels was in helping me with this purchase.

Very Nice! Looks like the case is slimmer and much more wearable with long sleeves.

I like that a lot... I wish we could get some up here in Canada, but we don't seem to be getting any of the new models.

Cheers and enjoy, and please post more pics!!

wow when i first saw this on breitlings site I KNEW it was gonna be a winner! it looks awesome on your wrist. I really like the thickness.

at less than half the price of a Rolex GMT 2C this is bound to turn some heads.


i very rarely get a chance to say this but, GREAT JOB BREITLING!!!!!

Indeed. This year's focus on evolution rather than revolution appears to be a hit not just with those of us here who have been disappointed with the direction that Breitling has been going in the last few years, but also with the public at large. Hopefully it's a sign of things to come, and most importantly......

Great watch!

Genuine enthusiasm and excitement from many corners, without reservation. Trying to remember the last time I saw that here. Probably when the new Navi dial variations came out (the Serge collection), but it reminds me of when everybody was buying up Steelfish (including me). Just reading this thread is enjoyable.
