Hi All

Well this is technically my second post here but im a long time reader. Picked up my first Breitling about a month back and thought I might show you guys how I went. I decided on a 2008 White Batons dial Super Avenger as per the thread title. The SA was my first choice due to its presence, size and cost. It was incredible value for money IMO and I was lucky enough to get 30% off. (before all this price rise talk). Im also a keen Panerai fan and bought a 111K around the same time.

This is some serious hardware to say the least.

Nice pics and SA, but what really got me going was the strap on your Panerai... what is that lovely thing?

Very great pics indeed!

The un-packaging of a new arrival is one of the nicest things. :)

Throw the chronolog up against the wall and see what page it lands on... it's a good enough choice ;)

lol. Like I had mentioned, I initially wanted to grab the 6.75 instead of the Panerai but I just love PAM's.

With the budget being blown a little on those two purchases I cant stretch for the 6.75 right now but am considering a Monty Legende or Heritage Chrono.

Part of the thrill is the chase. Go to the local ADs and start trying them all on. One will call to you. They always do!!! :lingsrock:
