Ladies and Gentlemen,

Please follow the link below to my new review on Breitling's amazing Super Avenger. Find out why I think the SA is consistently top of Breitling's hit parade.

As always your comments are very welcome.

Superb review Ricardo. Your observations are spot on. The Avenger series is probably my fave, and your review does it justice. I am fortunate (or unfortunate) to have large enough wrists to wear the SA comfortably. Consequently, it's a curse because it keeps me from enjoying the "normal" size watches. As much as I love my Rolex GMT, it sometimes looks too small for example. But again, your review was excellent, and a fine tribute. :D

I just want to commend 46crew for rocking the blue dial SA. Every time people are wearing SAs or considering buying one they always lean towards the black or white dial. That's part of the reason I bought a blue dial... because with such a popular watch I wanted to get something that wasn't as common. I know a lot of people say that black and white goes with everything and blue doesn't. That's simply not true, blue is also a very versatile watch dial color and it's stunning on the SA.

Thanks buddy! I couldn't agree more. Blue is my favorite color in clothing, so the blue dial is a natural match. I love it. :D

No. Straight chronograph.

I also got the blue dial and have wanted one for years. I also got a professional bracelet and a blue leather band which mutes the shininess and gives a more dressy look to the watch. But if I he'd my way which I never will I would love the Transocean QP. Anyone have 57k to give me!

I gave myself a black faced SA, 3 years ago. About 3 weeks ago my wife gave me another, white faced with batons, SA!! They are really great to wear with the proII steel bracelet, rubber Ocean Racer and black or brown calf with deployment! I just love them!!
