The Breitling Watch Source Forums

Hi, could anyone tell me the difference between the two? They both look identical? I know the M13380 is limited to 2,000 pieces and the M13370 is limited to 3,000 pieces. What else? I have seen a M13380 for £3,530 is Selfridges Manchester, but have sourced one for £2800 online, Ijust wanted to ensure I have the right model. Thanks for any help!!!

Difference is in size, bezel, texture inside subs and SABS has "swiss made" on the dial.

thanks for that. So I think the watch in selfridges in the SABS. Do you think this is the better watch and a reasonable price to pay. I have just sold my nav world, and wanted a more everyday watch.

SABS is /3000, ASBS is/2000.

The Avenger Skyland Blacksteel is getting more difficult to find, especially from an AD. There are still plenty that come across the bay. The Super Avenger Blacksteel is getting more scarce as well. I don't know off hand if any AD's still have them in their display cases...

The SA BS is still in production - they haven't even all been delivered to ADs yet.

This I wasn't aware of. Actually I hadn't even thought of it. I just assumed dealers put in their orders and received whatever they were allotted. At first I wanted one, then I didn't, now I'm leaning towards wanting one again...

which model do you guys prefer? And what price seems reasonable from an AD?

I own the ASBS (and I love it). At the time when I purchased it, I had NO idea that a SA model would also be produced a couple of months later .
If I was to do it again, I would certainly opt for the SA, cause I have a pretty big wrist.
In your case, make sure the SA is confortable; go try both at the AD.
Many people, with a wrist under 7", think the SA is tooooo massive....Be careful

This depends entirely on whether you prefer or can pull off a 45 or a 48mm watch

thanks for that. Looks great

There's a fellow member selling one (ASBS) in the buy/sell section; I believe for 4000US ?
I think its a pretty good price, especially if you live in the US and are paying in U$?

I'm not going to comment on the price that someone is asking on the buy / sell / trade section, but I will say that a search of the forum will find a few references that I have made to the price I paid for mine in Canadian dollars new from an AD. I realise that ADs son't have any AS BS left now, but it may be helpful.
