So I am very excited, my new 2009 Breitling Avanger Skyland got here today, I opend the box put the watch on and it's absolutely beautiful, BUT, my biggest fear was that it may look to small and I think it does!! A bit disappointed....

What do you guys think???
Any input would be appreciated!!

looks ok, but you can pull off a super avenger

I wouldn't go any bigger than that. Looks right to me. SA would be too big IMO.

looks great! Keep it for a while and see whether it grows on you, otherwise swap it for a SA.

Looks right to me though macro shots can make the watch look bigger on the wrist. Try it for a while then send it to me if you decide it's not for you. Enjoy it and wear it in good health.

I know the camera tends to foreshorten things, but that looks absolutely fine to me.

If people think that looks too small then I am getting way too old!

If someone posted those pictures and asked if we thought that they could carry off an SA then I would say no.

It looks good, I'm sure you are just used to the SA. I would suggest wearing it for a little while as well and see if you get more comfortable with the size. It's YOUR decision after all. It does look plenty bit to me!

Looks great. A trick that I've learned: look at your watch on your wrist from your mirror. That way you will see how others see you. When I first saw a TO at the AD, I thought it might be to small. Looked in the mirror and it was perfect. Give it a try

Cheers

I think it looks great on your wrist. Buyers remorse perhaps.
