Well, you guys and gals have made a fool out of me. But then again it may be the Ling itself, but it has made me crazy. I bought a new Skyland Avenger (SA) a couple of weeks back, and have posted about it. I love it. Yesterday I gave a Rolex TT Submariner back to a friend who was trying to sell it to me because it just did not impress me. Today, off I go to the Breitling AD to look at a Super Avenger. Wow...beautiful watch. However, it just seemed to be a larger SA and it seemed to make no sense to have two two watches so similar. So I start looking...he had three trays or different lings. I was like a kid in a candy store. Since I have the SA and a Navitimer 25th Anniversary, I was looking for something a bit different. Saw many I wanted, but settled on something totally different, a Superocean Heritage 46 in black face. The only problem is it is on a rubber strap. Well, I corrected that also. Ordered a mesh bracelet which will be added as soon as it arrives. I will post pics as soon as I get a chance. So, thank you one and all, my checkbook is empty, but my eyes sparkle and my heart is happy....my friends think I need help..... :idea:

The rubber strap on the SOH is incredible. You wont have a bit of trouble getting rid of it...a lot of people want one.

Yes it does look good. However, they had the smaller SOH on a mesh bracelet....It was astonishing, IMHO. I cannot wait for my mesh to come in.

Congratulations!

Both on the existing AS (Avenger Skyland) and the new SOH! I have tried out the SOH 46 on a mesh bracelet and the mesh is really thick. More important, it is also very "closed", meaning you wont rip any hair with it...

I'm with you Sunnyman - when I first saw it I found it hideous, but now that my wife has the 38 it's really growing on me. Still not sure that I can see myself wearing the 46 or the Chrono, but definitely like it a lot more than when I first saw it.

I love the diversity of that collection. That's the reason I love Lings so much.. the whole range is nice, and there is tons of variety too.

Nice SOTC! :thumbsup:

Thanks for all the comments. I passed on the Super Avenger because I was wanting some diversity in my collection. But now I have been offered a used blue face super avenger for a decent price, so I guess, it might be added after all. More than likely I will have to offer something up for sale later on, so keep watching. LOL.
I like the strap on the SOH, however, I really fell for the mesh on the SOH 36 at the dealer. I am getting the mesh for the 46 and will post pics whenever it comes in and I get it installed.

I took a few more pics this AM with natural light. I will put them in the gallery if you want to check them out. Natural light makes a big difference.

Thanks again for the comments. The ling fever/addiction is so so bad...
