Ho! Ho! Ho! Got me a-day-early stocking stuffer from my beloved wife!! :D

Super Avenger Black-on-Black w Baton markers on Pro Bracelet! ('scuse the horrible iPhone photos -- excited to share the joy!)

Image

Brand new from AD in Singapore, the price comes down to about US$200 higher than US. But I don't have to deal w shipping ($100?), and hey -- it's Christmas quick-tear-open-the-gift-wrapping-and-OH-WOW!-LOOKATWHATIGOT!! instant gratification!! (priceless)

Image

First impressions: Feels lighter (yes, I know it's only by 2 grams) & amazingly more comfortable on the wrist than the EM. The baton markers & black-on-black dial looks very elegant and... I don't know, more "mature" somehow? (The volcano black w white subdials would look too similar to my EM, I feel). So far haven't knocked against anything or bashed anyone...(though in some strange sense, I actually can't wait to get the first scratch on it -- so that I can relax and begin to really enjoy wearing it!) 

Overall? TOTALLY LOVING IT!!! :D 

Thank you to all who patiently answered my questions which helped me finally decide! Did get a chance to try out the Airwolf Raven -- a real beauty! (maybe next one?) Though still didn't get a chance to try out an Airwolf w Co-Pilot (no AD I went to actually have any on display).

Hope all of you have as much joy this holiday season! Merry Christmas Everyone!! :)

My EM finally has a FULL LING brother... :lingsrock:
