I just got my Super Avenger last week and it needs a diamond bezel. I live in the orange county area, and all the jewelers in the area tell me 3000 to 4000$$. On ebay i found a guy that will do it for 900$$. His reviews are really good, but I hate buying stuff online. Has anyone on the forum done business with him before? Here is his link, thankyou,

never done any business with him personally but my good friend who took care of me when i needed a bezel for my superocean will definitely give u a great price with an original bezel. im looking to get a new one for my super avenger now also but im probably going to go with a channel set bezel. its a bit more expensive but in my opinion is a nicer bezel. probably about 1500-2000 at near cost. anywhere else would run atleast 3000. his ebay name is abreitlingday. he has perfect feedback and i know he will do the right thing. hes a great guy and extremely honest. he only deals with breitlings so he really knows his stuff. not to mention the superavenger that he owns that i saw in person and wanted to steal lol. if you speak with him tell him dane referred you. his name is alex

Well,for $800,can't expect vvs.....

He claimed vs-si in his ad,i actually didn't ask my jeweller that,probably si at that price,color wise they are clean,thats all that matters on a watch bezel,imo.....si is fine with me,maybe there is a mix as he claimed,dunno....

Clear,nice sparkle,$800,thats all good to me,looks great.... 8)

One of the only Super Avengers I've seen that I like that looks nice with the ice around the edge.

Perfect!

just be weary of abreitling day diamonds. the diamonds aren't the best quality out there, but like i said in an earlier post, it's hard to tell with the naked eye.

i've taken one of his bezels to my jeweler and he did confirm that it was ss1-ss2 quality color h-i. If spending 3k+ on a watch, why not spend the money for good stones to go along with it? His diamonds look like sugar cubes.
