Carrying the A13381111B1W1 reference, this Breitling Avenger II replica houses an automatic chronograph movement inside a 43mm stainless steel case fitted with a fabric military strap. The Avenger II Chronograph has been a mainstay of the collection, known for its oversized rider tabs on the bezel and screw-locked pushers that reinforce its tool-watch credentials. At 43mm the case is the most compact Avenger in this collection, yet it still commits to the large-format philosophy that defines the Avenger range, where legibility at distance takes priority over wrist comfort. The dark dial and contrasting subdials create the high-visibility layout expected from this lineage. A solid caseback seals the construction for added durability. If 43mm sounds small for an Avenger, our size guide for 43, 45 and 48 mm Avengers compares the case widths.

Rider Tabs Made for Flight Gloves

The rider tabs on the bezel are a defining Avenger detail. They allow gloved hands to grip and rotate the bezel, a feature originally designed for pilots who needed to operate the watch without removing flight gloves. The overall case finishing mixes brushed surfaces with polished edges.

The Breitling 13 Layout: Counters at 12, 6 and 9

The A13381111B reference has circulated in the Avenger catalog long enough to have established a recognizable identity among enthusiasts. The chronograph layout uses three subdials in the Breitling 13 arrangement, with the 30-minute counter at 12, the 12-hour counter at 6 and running seconds at 9, and the date window sits at 3. Compared to the two-tone gold UB01821A1B1X1, this all-steel version on a fabric strap stays closer to the utilitarian origins. Both sit in the Avenger collection, but the UB01821A is a 45mm B01 chronograph with its counters at 3, 6 and 9, and the material choices point them in very different aesthetic directions.

Breitling Avenger II Replica on a Fabric Strap

Breitling positions the fabric-strap Avenger as a lighter alternative to the full-metal bracelet configuration. The weight difference is noticeable on the wrist, and the woven fabric adds a slightly less industrial character without softening the commanding case presence. The buckle provides secure closure while allowing quick removal. This Avenger II super clone offers the full chronograph toolset in a configuration that trades some heft for everyday wearing comfort.
