    Blacksteel owners--How is the coating holding up?

    Hey guys,

    The Skyland Avenger Blacksteel has long been a grail of mine. But I'm scared of spending that much on a DLC watch. I'd fear a scratch killing the whole thing for me. Can you guys please share your experience with the coating?

    And please post pictures (of course)
    Thanks!

    I had a Blacksteel Seawolf Chrono for a hot minute and swapped it for a Super Avenger instead. I never had a problem in my few months of ownership with a scratch through the coating. Of course I try and baby my watches. Anyway I felt like it would take some doing to make terribly permanent type damage.

    I don't think they have it in yellow. This is a Limited Edition watch. I can't even find it on the Breitling website.

    Yeah i was thinking it was probably no. I love the abyss yellow chapter ring. But it seems so small very time I see it now.
