Since I recently purchased a white dialed SA I was able to see it next to my "silver/white" Navi World and until then I didnt realize how silver the dial of the World (and my Steelfish) are. For those who dont know or havent seen them in person, trust me the SA is full on WHITE and it really makes the others look even more like silver/gray.

Very true. But to be fair to Breitling they do market models like the Navi World as having a silver dial, not white. The SA is one of the few with a true white dial,.

A common deal breaker for me, like white but not the silver.

Really? Personally I really like the silver, especially on the more traditional models like the Navis as I think white can be a little too harsh and stark. Very much depends on the model though as I think the white suits the SA very well indeed.

I really like the World and Steelfish "silver" even more now that it looks silver to me compared to the SA. But having said that I dont think I would like the SA in the "silver". I think it looks great in the bright white.

I found the steelfish (thanks D8 :wink: ) to be more of a beige skewed silver than the others. Ecru as they say in the design biz? I agree that the SA batons is as white as they come, and was actually a bit shocking to me when I opened the box. Definitley an attention grabber.

In most cases I prefer a nice crisp silver, my favorite being the Doxa Searambler silver, but in the case of the SA, the white is perfect. It just works.
