Hey all-

One of those hoping someone can help me identify the model being worn by UFC fighter Frank Mir. Have seen a few photos where it jumped out at me, so greatly appreciate any assistance.

Thanks in advance.

Really? Didn't look like an SA to me. The dials being that deep gray made me definitely not think that.

Maybe just an Avenger then? I can see the bezel clear enough to tell. I know he has a black Super Avenger which also looks small on him.

Thanks but I'm stuck on the inner dials being gray which isn't fitting. Appreciate you trying to help. If anyone else has a thought it would be appreciated.

The inner sub dials aren't grey, it's just a reflection from the light. If you look at the photo of my avenger that I posted you can see that the sub dials have ridges in them, when the light hits it a certain way it appears dark than it actually is. It's either a Super Avenger or Avenger...there are no other lings it could be.

Serge is 100% right on this fact, its just a reflection.

It has to be an Avenger or SA. It has a proII bracelet
Its hard to tell because his wrists look monstrous.

Not sure which that one is, but I'm guessing an SA because I have seen him with a black SA.

How tall is this guy? There's a guy I work with who is 6'6", 350lbs and had to add a link to his SA, but it looks bigger on him than that. My guess it's just an avenger.
