Breitling Super Avenger B01 Chronograph 46

The ideal companion for any challenge, this impressive Breitling manages to be simultaneously powerful and aesthetic in its own unique way. "Bound" by sturdy titanium chains, this "avenger" flexes its muscles like a Thor or Hulk from the eponymous blockbuster hit – few are the timepieces that so successfully combine a rugged appeal, impressive dimensions, and raw elegance. Many different watches have passed through our hands – some have been larger than this one, for others their creators have tried to make them more provocative and noticeable, but none of them so successfully combines a rugged appeal, masculinity, and raw elegance. For good reason, the Super Avenger has been the best-selling Breitling for the last 25 years. We have a special affinity for this particular model from a beloved brand, and if you have followed our other listings, you'll know we quite often compare the watches offered in them specifically to this one. Through the sapphire crystal with double anti-reflective coating, the blue dial is visible (a new shade of blue is used here for the first time), the hours are indicated by double markers coated with Superluminova. Unlike most Super Avengers, which have a size of 48mm, this one comes in a "modest" 46mm, making it a suitable model for fans of the series who do not possess the proportions of Popeye the Sailor. The overall impression this timepiece creates is very classy – only blue, black, and silver with a few red accents (the tip of the chronograph's seconds hand and the three tachy-segments on the subdial at "3 o'clock") – it simply needs no other embellishments! The beautiful brushed titanium bracelet, the 300 m water resistance, and the COSC-certified chronograph only reinforce the overall impression of this instrument. Holding it in your hands or even just contemplating it, you understand very well why Breitling chose this very slogan for their timepieces: "INSTRUMENTS FOR PROFESSIONALS". The watch comes with the time-proven Breitling 01 movement with a 70-hour power reserve, 28,800 vph, and 45 jewels, and the manufacturers allow us to enjoy this work of watchmaking art through the open case back. Another positive factor contributing to the interest in this watch is the many possibilities it offers for its personalization. Besides this superb bracelet, the watch looks unique with all kinds of colors of original leather and rubber straps and bracelets, as well as with all sorts of design ideas for non-original ones (almost as much as a Panerai).
