Since I sold my black AS, I've had my only sellers remorse of my collecting. I figured I had too many black dialed watches... In it's place a black eye grey Skyracer was purchased.... But for some reason, I have not taken to it as I expected. It is an amazing dial with it's texture and color contrast, but I miss the chunky depth of my AS.
So, I was wondering if it was possible to get a black dialed AS and have BUSA swap out the dial for a grey dial while keeping the subs black?
Has anyone attempted this? Thoughts?

Since a black-eye gray dial is not an option on the Avenger (according to B's website), it sounds like you're looking at a custom dial, which I'm not sure Breitling does.

Doubt it can be done, but if it can...please let me know. I would send my Avenger back to have it done as well. If they could do it with the grey then they could pull off a BEB version as well.

Custom combos have to be listed as options in the dealer catalogue. That is more varied than the Chronolog / Pure Breitling, but I think that it's the same as the online configuration tool.
