Greetings!

Here are some pics of my very first Breitling - CA with black dial on brown leather strap, I am also getting the black rubber strap.
I managed to get my hands on one, before they ran out, as they have been replaced by the skyland avenger... :)
It is extremely comfortable to wear and very easy to read; I am quite thrilled about it these days...

I would like to hear your comments and experience with this model.

Regards,

Yosi M.

Nice watch - congratulations!

I have a CA too and I like it for the matte, rugged look. However, you should remember that it's quite easy to scratch the titanium (easier than SS), so if you'll get freaked out over any scratch remember to be careful while wearing it.

I have that strap aswell....when the weight of my SA gets too hard to handle with the full braclet i put on that strap...so comfortable

I looked it up and it is the watch used by Dicaprio in the film "blood diamond"

I love the SA, but since I have a s.s Panerai, I decided to give my arm a break for a change...

It is the same piece that Leo wears in Blood Diamond.

I personally liked the film very much, but what really got my attention was Leo's fine acting! He was great.

Really cool watch you got there!

It looks beautiful in that brown leather strap, and I am sure with a black rubber strap it will also look great! Use it in the best of health!
