Somewhat of a wrist shot

In the case -- whenever the light comes from the right, you can really see the sub dial texture.

Here is a shot showing how thick the case is. The SuperOcean looks thin!

Congrats...she looks great!! I really like the black dial with the chromed arabic numerals.

I was at my AD today and they had a code yellow with the batons. It is not as impressive in person as I thought it would be. I think that they should have only offered it with the numerals. Also, I didn't try it on, but the case appeared to be brushed. Does anyone know if this is true? If so...then I think it is a great move.

The baton model is brushed and the numeral model is polished.

Hard to imagine the difference is just 2.4mm in thickness!! Nice pick up, the Avenger in black is very nice. (Oh, the white is good too - for Sergio!).
