Really tempting but above what I am ready to commit- I am desperately trying to convince myself I do not need the Avenger GMT and it comes the same price.

Last year their preorder prices were much more affordable.

Though very impressive with the day/ date and quick set up of the gmt.
I would have personally preferred either to be less than 14 mm
or at least lose some of the legibility but the day/date wheel to be in the dial color.

Anyway, every time i look at it and my hands itch

Hmm. Did not expect to like these, but the black dial version is actually quite nice. Would like to see a real-world pic.

Do not think you would see that anytime soon- not sure there are any real pictures of the model, beside the last year’s with the aluminium bezel insert.

Even the black and blue is still to be shipped, I think....


Though I personally failed to refrain- with the river edge guys -the price got even more tempting and I ordered the green model, now the waiting starts.
