This is news about the launch of another new product from replica Breitling, which celebrates its 130th anniversary this year.
A new version has been added to the Avenger collection, which has been loved for its unique, simple yet masculine design.
The model is the Avenger Blackbird.
True to its name, the most noticeable change is in the case material and finish.
Instead of stainless steel, this time a full titanium case was used.
It is treated with black carbon PVD coating to prevent scratches and has a tougher visual appearance than the existing model.
Another change is that the case diameter has also been increased to 48mm instead of the existing 43mm or 45mm.
When you look at other brands these days, you might think that the oversize trend has died down, but when you look at Breitling, that’s not the case.
Although the size variations of the collection as a whole have become more diverse, when looking at this model alone, it is a bit disappointing that it is only released in one size, 48mm.
Despite the boldly increased case size, the weight of the watch is much lighter than the existing steel version.
Due to the nature of the titanium material, it has excellent basic durability as well as corrosion resistance and anti-magnetic properties, so its advantages are clear.
The rider tab-style unidirectional rotating bezel, which conveys Breitling’s unique identity, still remains.
The straight bar indexes and oversized hands filled with Superluminova paint remain the same.
Unlike existing models, the Luminova color has a deep apricot tone, expressing a subtle individuality.
We use an intentionally vintage-looking luminous paint in an old radium tone, which is often seen in the diver and pilot collections of many brands these days.
Even the base of the dial was sandblasted to create a tool watch feel that is perfect for Breitling, which promotes ‘equipment for professionals.’
The movement installed is the Breitling 17 automatic caliber, which, as you know, is based on ETA 2824-2 and has been certified by COSC (Swiss Official Chronometer Certification Institute).
Like most other Breitling replica watches, it has a solid case back and a screw-down crown with a double O-ring, making it water resistant to 300 meters.
The strap is made of sturdy fabric with a Kevlar-like feel, taking practicality and comfort into consideration.
It is a choice that matches the overall military style, and although the lug size was not disclosed separately,
Considering the case size, it is expected to be around 24mm, so I think you can enjoy filing it.
