Those of you wanting SA's but have small wrists ....

Bud,there is one color of white SA dial,white.

It can have a subtle hue under low lighting conditions,but there is not different shades on any SA,it is milk white under normal lighting and all the same.

Thanks, well then assuming you had a look at my pics, would you say mine is supposed to be the hurricane White? - which is really more silver?

If I purchase one of these gen White dials, is it something I could fit reasonably easily, or would I best to and it to someone like Smidsy here in the Uk?

Well as you can probaly see from my pics, that's not the case with the one I have.

I don't have pictures off hand to show the differences but this is how it goes.

There is White- which is the one with kind of a dull, kind of off white look.

There is also Hurricane white- This is the more dynamic brighter white. Some people describe it as almost having a silverish hue to it.

Believe me, even a lot of people on the Breitling forums do not realize this till they end up buying one. Then they see the other shade in a picture or wrist and start posting about seeing a fake. Quite comical.

This only applies to the Super Avenger, as far as I know.

:lolcina:

This does not apply to the SA,the "hurricane white" as described above being the SA dial,milk white usually,with a silver tone,non milky tone under dark lighting.

The off white or cream white like found on gen Bentley "white dial" a different story.

Yes.

Now leave the closet you took those pics in,grab some sunlight and take more pics.

Normal SA dial bud,thats how they look,all of them.

If you look at the Breitling website , you can build your own Super Avenger. It gives you a choice of a White dial, or a Hurricane white.

Gen Bentley "white dial" and gen SA "white dial"...

Gen SA "white dial" under lower lighting (still not dark lighting but all i have a pic of)...

Under darker lighting i get a silver hue on the SA,its normal...

Well sure,i can build a pink dial SA with purple polka-dots and an emerald bezel. i thinks its been done actually...:cheer:

LOL,but as for gen standard dials,they do have a silver tone at times.

 

[TESLA760]

I don't think you're understanding me. I'm not talking about a custom watch. Breitling offers 2 different White shades as a dial choice. If you doubt me, go on the website and assemble your own Super avenger. You will see the dial choices I am talking about. Believe me, I am fairly knowledgeable about this particular model watch.

Is that your SA ? I was talking to my source. He has a diamond bezel like that from a watch he sold. I was considering it. Looks very nice with 1 row of diamonds.

 

[watcher69]

Your pics just emphasize more how mine is more silver than white regardless of exactly how bright the light is - I go outside into the bright sunlight, and I am still not looking at a pure white dial - it's light silver :/

 

[TESLA760]

I completely understand the effect you are talking about. I've seen the comparison pics on the GEN Forums.

Awesome!

That being the case, I think I need to discuss a dial swap with SMIDSY then :]

 

[TESLA760]

Watcher, have you gone on breitling's site to see the different choices I was aluding to ?

 

[watcher69]

Yeah I have looked at the options on the gen, and it confirms 2 types of white, although it's obviously not possible to tell the difference on their little interactive thing.

 

[TESLA760]

No. That's why I did some poking around on other sites to see real life pics. I haven't found anything really good, but working on it.

 

[watcher69]

I appreciate that dude!

 

[darthvinh]

i have a 7 inch wrist... would I be to fragile for a SA? maybe if i get the black dial it will look smaller. i can sport a hublot big bang and rolex dssd... what do u think?

 

[watcher69]

Should be fine!

 

[darthvinh]

now where should I buy it from? saw the new version with updated bracelet out here:

I recommend Marvellous Replica

 

[RobbDizzle]

DSSD's and HBB's are smaller and thinner than SA's...it's bigger in pretty much very dimension. It'll look like the picture in the first post in the thread.

 

[watcher69]

My wrist is 7.5", and I had some concerns that when mine arrived it might look OTT, but to me, the SA seems like a beautiful fit, the lugs sit almost perfectly on my wrist and when I look down at it face on, there still plenty of bracelet visible either side of the watch - i worried it would be all watch and look huge, but it doesnt a 7" wrist should still give you something simlar without it looking too big.
