I pray that they dont destroy the Avenger line. I know its wishful thinking, but imagine if they actually kept the rider tabs but just updated them to look more modern? Maybe no rubber or ugly lugs/endlinks? A modern bezel font that actually looks right?

Wishful thinking, I know.

I would really like to see a 42-43mm version similar to the old Skyland with white arabics :) .

Thanks for sharing.

Being honest, the thought if them farking with the Avenger makes me nervous........ I can't imagine an Avenger with either a rubber bezel or a metal rider tabless bezel..... and hope they can stick with a a bit of tradition.

I krrp thinking of the "newer" Superocean's and how they look nothing like what to me, was one of the nicest Breitling's going.

I for one love the rider tabs and felt/feel that if needeed, they could have still kept the tabs but angled them and not have any part of it over hang the inner bezel...... IMHO that would have been a pretty easy solution.
