Anyone have real life pictures of the Avenger II Chrono?

I'm also still trying to get an accurate measurement on the thickness of the new Avenger II Chrono. Is it thinner than the Chronomat B01?

No it's thicker than the B01 chronomat. The reduction in thickness isn't as noticeable as the reduction in dial size from 45 to 43.

Is that the Avenger or Super Avenger? It looks large compared to the Chronomat.

Cheers

That's a super avenger 2, the avenger doesn't come with black chronos on the numeral dial. The avenger 2's numeral dial has silver chronos.

Right - also was obvious from the pic next to the Chronomat because it's much bigger.

Either way, it's still very interesting to see the thickness compared to a watch I own, so thank you for posting! :)

Cheers!

thanks for the pics.
So these last 2 are respectively 43 and 45 mm?

Does it exists an Avenger II with same color for sub dials and dials? I guess I saw one in an AD in blue, but I'm not sure.

Ostendorf's last picture is an Avenger II - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... r_288.html and Super Avenger - http://www.breitlingsource.com/watch_de ... er_78.html so 43 and 48.4. All of the configuration options are available on the Breitling website's 'versions' or 'my Breitling made to measure' sections of the model pages. As you can see there only the black is available with matching subdials, the Super Avenger II is available with white or black in matching subdials. Neither has blue dial with blue subs options.

hi Roffensian, thanks for your answer; I thought that the second (all black) was a II as well, because of the bezel that looks like in the modern version, with a number every 5', instead of the old one, with only quarters (accordingly with the link you posted).

About the one I saw: it had every 5' numbers on the bezel, so I thought it was a II series. Moreover, it was put side by side with a chronomatic (I guess 48mm), and the difference in size was huge, so I thought it must have been a 43mm. So, from these informations I desumed it is a Avenger II, and it all makes sense, except for the color, of which I'm sure, it was all blue.

Unless it does exists an Avenger (not II) all blue and with the bezel with every 5' numbers. This could explain the mystery.
