Will the Avenger series be updated at Baselworld with Wings logo kept?

Since Georges Kern took the helm, we have had the new design language applied to the Navitimer 1’s, brand new Navitimer 8’s and of course the Superocean Heritage. On one of his Instagram posts he has said that the new Avengers will infact be keeping the Wings logo as it’s more sporty and fitting for the Avenger line, so do you think we could be in for new Avengers at Baselworld 2019?

I think we'll see some new dial choices and perhaps a 40 or 41mm Avenger chrono which will be thinner than the current Avenger II which comes in at just over 16mm thick.

Yes I agree about them downsizing, the current ones are just too big and thick. I like the look of them, but the huge size has always put me off buying one. If they add a B01 movement too I would definitely purchase.

Yes there will be a revived avenger series with wings logo! The wings logo will remain in the sport models (avenger, progessional, superocean etc)

Yes, but a thinner chrono with the B01 movement would be preferable

Looking forward to new Avenger offerings. Love my Avenger Blackbird. A rough and tumble watch that looks better dirty and used than shiny and clean.
