I was in La Swiss yesterday and there was a Skyland with a black dial with silver reflective numerals and arms (as apposed to matte white). Is this a new dial for 09? I couldn't find it on the website......

The rumor is that the numbers are metallic on the new model, but I thought they wouldnt be out until the rest of the new models started rolling in.

Guys i gotta tell you it was gorgeous! It added a level of elegance to the skyland. And softened the contrast of the numerals to dial. Looked so good in black.

Yes it´s the new version. I thought the name was supposed to change to Avenger at the same time?
BTW The Super Avenger will have the excact same treatmant with the "Chrome" Stenciled numbers.

I will be very interested in seeing this along with the new B01. The Skyland really is the perfect watch, at least for me. 8)

Nope it wasnt the SA. I thought it must be an SA when i first saw it. I had it in my hand and compared it to the AS on my wrist so no mistake was made. The Brietling wings are still painted on.

It has been my understanding that both the SA and AS will be getting metallic stenciled numerals.

RVD,
We need to get some photos of this new version! Although I do like the contrast of the original AS.
