Enough has been said about the Super Avenger. Yes It Rocks!

But I want a watch which is sturdy and beautiful - for DAY WEAR

Image

I also want a watch that is elegant and I can wear for AN EVENING COCKTAIL DINNER

Image

What about a watch for my CLUBBING AND PARTYING?

Image


And for my WEEKEND FISHING TRIP?

Image

NOW LET'S TALK? Got anything more versatile and gorgeous?
I have been planning to buy my SA the last 3 months! Now finally I have my wife's approval and budget allocation! But waiting period seems a month at least! Sigghh...

I think the New Super Avenger is much more elegant than the older one (with arabic numerals) Guys?

Could only get the 1st 2 to open but get the drift!

Someone's been playing on the Japanese watch builder haven't they?

This is on on my short list (of 3) and you're right - a watch for all occasions - you missed out "dropping muggers with a glancing blow" - nice choice.

Why the wait - where are you based - must be somewhere you can get your hands on one (and one on your hand) within that time. Mind you do you have the budget for the straps/bracelets shown (only saw 2 mind) - if not the extra month may be handy.

What else is ther? I dare say there will be plenty of suggestions - Chronomat? Navitimer? Both classics and very versatile but maybe not rugged enough for the fishing trips. So - back to the Aeromarine range.

Stand back & prepare to be given more to think about.

Ah - getting all 4 now.

Don't know about the colur of the Ocean Racer but apart from that this will do all you want.

Make sure you get some spare spring pins - looks like you're gonna wear them out!

:lol:

I personally like the newer version with the markers, but most prefer the numbers....it all bols down to personal preference though....either way you cant go wrong.

I LOVE the new SA!!! Good luck with whatever choice you make.

Hope you'll get it soon enough!

I personally prefer the arabic numbers, but that's just me.
