The Breitling Watch Source Forums :: View topic - Dial colors for the Aerospace Avantage Tuxedo dial

I was hoping to find out what colors were produced for that run of Avantages. I know there was a black, copper and blue dial. Was there also a grey dial ?

Thanks in advance.

The Q572 looks like one of those dial colors that is hard to interpret in pictures

I think it looks like either a light black "Charcoal" or gray, definitely not a darker black.

I wonder if its like a Tungsten Gray dial in real life (my Tungsten Gray dial looks almost Volcano black at certain angles and more of a lively texturized gray at other angles)

I suspect part of the "problem" is the double AR can make the dial color look very different at different angles.

The Q572 is apparently the "bronze" dial. Do you know which number corresponds to the tungsten gray?

Yup! That's really good info. I guess I'm trying to figure out if there was a grey dial one as opposed to the black dial one. Does anyone know if the E7936210/Q572 was a grey one? (Edit - I did some more searching and that Q572 appears to be the "bronze" dial one). I'm asking because I'm looking at one and the seller is adamant that it's a "grey dial" but I think it's the black dial one. Did these black dial (tuxedo) ones have a "charcoal grey/black" color to them?

I don't know if there is a Tungsten Gray with this specific model, i was just saying that the Q572 reference dial of this model looks much more like a light black or gray, doesn't look very bronze at all But that could be because of lighting (like the Tungsten Gray dial on my Avenger II Seawolf)

The Aerospace 79362 was produced between 2005 and 2013 with some dial changes along the way. 2005 - 2006 - Aerospace Avantage, has "Chronometre Certifie" written on the dial, came in four colours: Black, Titanium Grey, Silver and Blue. 2007 - 2009 - Aerospace, has Chronometre Aerospace" written on the dial, came in the same four colours as above 2010 - 2013 - Aerospace, new textured dial, has Chronometre Aerosopace" written on the dial, came in four colours: Volcano Black, Air Force Blue, Stratus Silver and Copperhead Bronze. These four colours are the ones pictured in the Damnfoolman's post above.
