Hi there...
Anyone come across this in flesh yet? A 100-piece limited-cum-boutique edition in yellow should sell out way too quickly...
Looks really dope!

Not seen that one. Looks pretty cool.......but my usual comments of "if only it was ceramic and not surface-coated steel (or titanium)" still apply unfortunately....... |

Apparently Breitling released the LE Avenger to it's company owed boutiques already. All other AD's are expecting them by the end of Sept. They are supposed to also release the LE Cockpit B50 in cobra yellow at the same time. |

Hi there.. Thanks for the info. Yes, the boutique personnel told me today that one avenger yellow piece is headed in the coming shipment but delayed due some customs issue. They said it'll arrive in a couple of weeks but it's supposedly only a boutique edition. So, I'm unsure if ADs will get them. I think they have some 50-odd boutiques around the globe. At least 50 other ADs should get one piece each to keep it fair. Id keep my dough on the avenger and stay away from the B50 for now. Enough issues already and my B50 in blue is somehow holding up. Its as though it has a life of its own and would play dirty with me as per its own fancy, like that child's play movie! Damn funny!! pEaCe

Yes Airbus I should have clarified that. The LE Avenger & LE Cockpit are Boutique Editions and regular AD's won't be getting them. I know an AD with several boutiques that is getting 6 each of them...make that 5 as 1 is already spoken for and they'll be at duty free pricing. |

It looks great, but why only 100? Surely it would make more financial sense to do at least 1000. Maybe I'm just frustrated

Dunno about the finances, but they may be right in their own way keeping LE to limited numbers. Sometimes I hate that running around to grab one,.., "is it sold out?" " Can you reserve one for me, please?"  " S***, I didn't know it launched, I'm too bloody late but can't get my eyes off of it!" etc,..., I'm not sure if it's unfair to decide slowly on good looking designs. If only the numbers would be more, you can take it slow and enjoy the buying experience IMO. pEaCe

Hi there, It's a bit wide for my wrist too but I tried the normal production model in black dial. It had a different look since it was thin compared to my avenger II seawolf. Let's c how it looks in flesh with its full blown yellow... pEaCe
