Breitling are sending an email about it today as well. Definitely a better size, perhaps they're learning.

Saw the email this morning, and my first thought was, perfect size. Perhaps Breitling is learning :wink:

An all round nice looking watch. I've always been partial to the tool-like aspect of the Avenger, and this does not disappoint at all. Once again I'm not all that partial to DLC, but I think it's a really nice edition.

That's an ideal size for me as 44mm tends to be my sweet-spot. Looks nice too. Less of a fan of the grade 2 ti (which it will be) or the DLC coating.... but it's definitely nice looking.

The bigger one looks better without the red date surround, but this size is better.

Yep, I like that too, definitely one I could see me adding to the want list! As D8 says, perfect size!

Textured dial looks great too.

Check out the machine profiling in the bezel numbers and markers!

In comparison to the Seawolf for example........
