Swiss watch company Breitling recently held one of its still-new Breitling Summit event concepts here in Los Angeles. One of the new references launched was this duo of GMT watches, the Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Men's Watch Replica A32395101C1A1 and the related Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Night Mission replica V32395101B1X1.
Things get a lot more interesting with the Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Night Mission Men's Watch Replica with its black and khaki tan themes. The GMT 45 Night Mission replica is a handsome little devil in a black DLC-coated titanium case paired with a "sand" leather strap. The dial uses a mix of indexes and stencil-style hour markers, which has always made for a good look.
The Dial
As GMT watches, these are good looking timepieces, and the red GMT hands on both the blue-dialed standard steel version and the military-style Night Mission are extremely easy to read and not easily confused with the hour or minute hand. The 24-hour scale, on the other hand, is a bit tiny and will require good eyes. This does mean that the uni-directional rotating bezel can still be used for a 60-minute timer - which, honestly, is rare for GMT watches of this pedigree.The Case
For 2019, Breitling retired the Colt collection and has merged it in with Avenger. The watches always looked too similar, and the new Avenger collection actually has a whole new construction but still has that iconic look and feel of a modern Breitling. The Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45mm replica comes in steel with a combo polished and brushed case design. Given the width, they feel thin at just 12.3mm-thick, and the cases are water resistant to 30 meters with an AR-coated sapphire crystal over the dial.The Movement
Inside the watches, Breitling uses Caliber 32 movement. It operates at 4Hz with about 42 hours of power reserve and also features the date, in addition to the time and 24-hour GMT hand for a second time zone display. Breitling has each of the movements COSC-Chronometer certified.The Strap
The Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Replica debuts exclusively with a blue dial and index-style hour markers with a case that is available either on a matching blue textile (leather-lined) strap or a handsome three-link steel bracelet (my choice).Things get a lot more interesting with the Breitling Avenger Automatic GMT 45 Night Mission Men's Watch Replica with its black and khaki tan themes.
