Just bought this to add to the collection. Limited edition of 200. Beautiful watch, but I can't find any information on it. Anyone have any info? |

Hasn't been much press about it - it was released late last year I believe. |

Saw one at my AD but it didn't really call to me. IMHO the black numerals detract from the dial. Always liked the stark white numerals on black dial of the regular version. Also, the shiny hands vs white did not work for me. |

Got any pics? How does this differ from the usual blacksteel version? |

Thanks - realized I saw this in stores the other day. i don't hate it actually, but the numerals and hands would be better suited to a blacksteel like the Blackbird, where the coating is applied to a polished surface rather than the brushed surface of the Avenger blacksteel. |
