The Breitling Watch Source Forums

this coming december im going to buy my first breitling watch ever and it's gonna be the super avenger. however, i have a big dilemma between the white dial and the blue dial. i just can't wake up my mind to pick the right color between those two. also, tell me if would look suitable on my hand if my wrist size is ''7.
i need your opinion guys about the color and if would look good on my wrist. thanks!!!

Color is a very personal thing, it would be like asking what food tastes better. That said the blue is striking and gives the fatch that extra dimension, the white would make the watch look even bigger with more wrist presense.

As for your wrist size, I have seen people with 6.5" wrists wearing the SA and similar sized models and it looks fine, it has more to do with style than wrist size.

color is a truly personal thing but i want to hear what people said about those two colors. just like you did and i appreciated!

Good choice of watch!

I would go for the blue for sure. In my opinion, the white and silver do not look as good as the blue and silver. My Ling is blue and silver and I love it!

Blue.

As far as size goes and whether it will look too big on you, then there really is no substitute for going into a store and trying it on. The diameter itself is only one indication of the size - for example a watch may have a reasonable diameter but be quite thin, or vice versa. The lines of the case etc, can serve to either accentuate or reduce the appearance of size. What I can say is that the SA is very large in all dimensions, including weight. If that's really what you want, then you can't go far wrong......

It's true as they say that the matter if your SA looks good or not isn't connected to the size of your wrist. You can have a small wrist and still look good, or a large wrist and look misplaced. It's all in the style and manner of the wearer.

That also goes for the color - color is truly personal. If I was about to choose between a white and a blue dial, I'd go for the white. I have/have had some watches with blue dials and they don't always do IT. A white dial is much easier to go in the long run - for me. That could also depend on the fact that I'm a bit short on white dials... Sure, a white dial may cause the watch to look even bigger, but then again - if you can handle the SA with style, I believe you can handle the white SA too.

You should get a custom bezel, Purple!

again a big thank you to all of you here. as far as i can see more people are going for the blue, i like blue because it gives you a sophisticated look and you can be in the group without holding the attention but i think the disadvantage of having a blue, you can't wear anything that would match to it. in the other hand white would look good in any color, i can even put a different strap and still look nice. however having a white dial will look so inexpensive to SA.
everybody that have comment me about this particular matter. I truly appreciated!!!

also to the people who would like to make a comment in near future. THANKS!!!

hi, my SA came today and its the white dial one... It is truely stunning. I was worried when i bought it about the white dial but now that its on my wrist it is incredible.
If I were you, i would get to the gym before your SA comes so that your arm can support it as it is MASSIVE!!

flavorgreentea,

I have the Blue SA and I like White dials but in the case of the SA I think that you screw yourself out of the contrast that you get with Blue or Black if you get the White dial. On the Blue and Black models those Silver sub dials really stand out, where on the White dial they just blend in. In any case you can't go wrong with the SA no matter what dial you choose.
