    I love that even with such a busy dial the time is so clear to read. Very nice pic.

    Anyone got/tried the latest version of the Avenger 43 automatic? (GMT or Standard)

    I have been tempted by one in the window of AMJs - no idea why, I have come over all funny!

    I'm not a massive Breitling lover but I wear my Blackbird loads.
    So maybe I'm a Breitling one trick pony.

    Brought this back to life with a battery change at home today, and trying on a couple of straps.
    Strap Tailor sand Velcro, and a new Breitling Grey nylon with brushed buckle.

    Looks good on both but the Breitling strap is the winner for me.

    Any Emergency enthusiasts on here ?

    I’m thinking of selling my hot custard mk2 and I’m keen to understand prices.

    The Breitling Appreciation Thread

    Little tweak to the bezel with a matte black enamel paint infill to the numerals and min markers. As close to dial colour as I could do.

    Hard to photo well but makes a real difference.
    Very much enjoying this now..

    I sold this about 15 years ago. Very chunky thing, like having a clock on your wrist.

    My 1000m SuperOcean I modified, with both polished bezel rings now brushed (avoiding the triangle and bezel pip at "12" of course), and it looks so much more stealthy and less blingy now.

    It is, yes. Breitling do know how to do a cobra dial.
