Here are some pictures of my two babies: Super Avenger - white dial with stencil numbers on pro II, and Skyracer - slate grey dial on pro II.

Unfortunately, I'm new to the world of SLR photography, so I'm still experimenting with my Nikon D5000.

Enjoy! :lol:

Not sure why, but that slate grey Skyracer looks the best I've ever seen one look........... and they usually look great anyway! Very nice indeed.

Absolutely LOVE the pics of the Skyracer. One question though - what's the button(?) on the left side of the case do?

It's not actually a button, it's the gear housing for the slide-rule. The Skyracer has a geared slide-rule like the B-1 and the Bentley models instead of the simpler friction-fit slide-rule that you find of Navitimers. The geared version is more water-resistant.
