Hi i'm new to the forum, but have wanted a -Ling for a while now. After looking through the 07 chrono log i had finally decided on a Chrono Avenger only to discover that they are now discountinued.
Anyone know why? :?:

:yeahthat Breitling seem to be moving away from titanium as a watch-making material for some reason. I believe that the Aerospace and the Emergency are the last remaining ti models now.

While I personally don't particularly like titanium watches, I still think it's a shame to offer less choice than before.

Welcome carve!

The CA is a great watch, I really like the rugged feel of the Ti on that model. Sadly though, I realized mine was getting 0 wrist time due to other watches, so I passed it on.

Thanks for the replies guys.
I'm starting to come around to the shiny bling of SS but the weight and look of Ti still does it for me.
I might have to look closer at the aerospace.

If you like the lighter watches then the Aerospace will be your idea of heaven! It's INCREDIBLY light!

Hi and welcome to the forum

I have the chrono avenger with a white face and love it to bits - I was after a SA but fell in love with this at a local jewellers, it was pre owned but in A1 condition so they are out there they just need to be discovered

Good Luck

John

I wear my CA everyday and love it. Non shiny ti works for me in my line of work and all the nicks and scratches do not really show.

Is there anyone out there that can PM me what the retail price for a chrono avenger was/is?
It looks like I can get one for USD 2550, is this a good price?

CA isn't in production anymore. Latest retail price on the ProII in 2007. was 2.165 UK Pounds.
I'd say that 2550 USD is a good deal only if it is in a very good condition.

They are still around new, but you have to hunt, then bargain.
