one model i want to see a real picture of. im not sure the pics online are showing its true color. almost looks cream colored to me.

if its actually silver as we know it, that might be a hot looking watch.

I haven't seen it but it does have a yellowish tint to it. Im hoping it doesn't look like that in real life.. But if I were to get one I think I'd go with the black dial anyways.

The stratus silver dials on the 2013 models look more cream then silver. They completely turned me off. But oddly enough the 2012 version of the Avenger I got (also considered stratus silver) but changes drastically in different light. Some angles it's pure white while others off white/cream. If it wasn't for the color changes it would have been a no buy for me.
The difference I think is the color difference of the sub dials in the new ones. Makes the silver stand out more unlike the Avenger or even stratus silver Navitimer which has all silver dials with very little color contrasts.
Here's some photos I took of the new SA's.

thanks for the pics!! just what i thought. looks more of a cream main dial. it would have been sweet if the whole thing was the color of the sub dials...

Could you describe or tell any differences in the fit, I've heard the new SA2 has elongated lugs compared to the SA and can't seem to find an AD fo try one out before I order either the original or SA2.

I've owned a B04 GMT chronomat and even though smaller than the SA it didn't fit my wrist like the SA due to elongated lugs and a flat pancake like fit.

I'm anxious to hear any feedback! Thank you in advanced!

Hmm, not sure about elongated lugs. I was more concerned with the new colors so much that I didn't give the lugs much thought.
The case is thinner for sure, and overall the watch is a little lighter. I found it quite comfortable overall, but again I wasn't doing a proper side by side for lugs or curvature.
Sorry, wish I could have been more help.

Thanks for the quick reply! Incompletely understand I guess ill just try and wait until I can try one on side by side to make a decision! I'm just paranoid after buying the B04 and it ended up being too long (lugs) for my wrist.

Thank you again!

Kyle
