Breitling Avenger II Seawolf with numbers or indexes
Hello and congratulations on the wonderful forum!
Now on the topic: I decided to buy a Breitling Avenger II Seawolf - Sea Wolf. As for the make and model, I no longer hesitate - they are definitely selected. The only thing I still can't choose is whether it is with Arabic numerals or only with indexes? I looked at various reviews and pictures on the web, which clearly show that the model, without Arabic numerals, has a much better luminescence, but in light, the one with Arabic numerals looks much better. Moreover, I see that most high-end divers, such as Omega, Rolex and Tudor, do not have Arabic numerals, however, mass Breitling is exactly in Arabic numerals, the index-only model is less common. Is there any specific reason for preferring the Arabic numeric version, despite the fact that the luminescence is much weaker than the other index model? So far I have not found such a topic and I would be very glad to hear what your views are on this matter! Lastly, I would like to ask you to direct me to a fair and reliable online store with good prices that delivers watches to Bulgaria? For now, see that the best price of € 2800 is in chrono24. If there are other suggestions, they are welcome! Once again, congratulations to all members! |

I’m considering the same purchase. What color dial will you be getting?

I'm interested in the two darker options.
The one with Arabic numerals, which has a tungsten color, which makes it not very legible in the dark and the other with indices that is black in color. I can see there are yellow and light blue, but I'm not interested in them. |

I love the Cobra yellow with the black rubber strap and deployant strap but it’s not for everyone.

I prefer the Arabic, military style personally. As long as the hands have lune, and the dot on the bezel I don’t care.

A little side question:
Considering the huge water resistance and the thickness of the box office, can anyone tell my, how many mm is the thickness of a sapphire crystal? I tried to find information on the subject on the web, but did not see any of these dimensions. Best Regards! |
