this is my brothers SA Custom black mother of pearl face with factory diamond markers and factory diamond bezel... my question is have any of you guys ever seen a SA customized like this? I have been in contact with an AD and they are stumped... let me know what you guys think... He bought this watch used about 5 years ago he had it apprased the AD said it was about 15k worth

BTW i just ordered my SA white baton should be here in 4 weeks.. hopefully mine will look somewhat like that after i get my diamond bezel

Never heard of a mother of pearl faced SA. I've never an SA like that. Not saying it's fake. Just never seen one of those. I'm sure others will chime in.

Wow, I've never seen an SA like that either! The MOP looks great, different. Where did he get it from? When did he have it customized? I'm not sure if the baton marker dial was even available five years ago, if you're saying he had it customized that long ago? I've only known the baton markers to be more recent options of the SA model, but I'm sure the experts will weigh in as well.

I love the pearl dial but the diamonds on the bezel are too much...

Yeah, again, just looking at the face it looks like a new style baton marker or something close to that rather but as I said before, I'm not too sure if the baton marker dial has been around five plus years, so I'd have to see a few more pics from different angles to know for sure.

Not saying its a fake but a few things I dont like. First it does have a Pro 1 attached to it not a Pro 2. So that tells me its older (Pre Baton Dial). Also, and this could be from putting the dial back in not quite lined up perfectly but...The date window looks angled a bit, the chronograph hand tip looks a bit to the left, and also the Breitling wings logo looks crooked. Just my 2 cents

Actually now that I look the wings logo isnt crooked its def the date window that throwing things off a touch.

I don't know if it is fake or real, but that date window sure makes this look funny... Bad work on the dial, but besides that I now know why I can't get myself to go for the diamond bezel. Between the diamonds on the bezel and the diamond markers it no longer holds the bold and stunning look of a super avenger. I am sorry, but I don't like it at all. It just isn't what it is supposed to be in my opinion and the date window just goes to show why I don't want to mess with my perfect super avenger. I think I am gonna hug it when I get home now! These pictures make me sad for that watch.
