OK guys, I'm seriously toying with selling one of my SA's as there are a couple of other Breitlings I want (and I'm really, really trying to be sensible for a change!), and I'm finding it a little tougher than I did to justify having two of the same watch. Basically I need to free up some funds to help me justify getting either a bronze dial 6.75 or (if I can find one cheap enough!) a Flying B Chronograph.

So which SA do I keep? The white dial or the black dial? :huh (Oh yeah, I should point out that whichever I keep it will be on the bracelet).

I voted keep the white as it is the one I'm after - I was tempted to vote the other way and offer to buy it but would want the bracelet too.

I'm having similar thoughts about my Monty. Not sure yet what to do.

I'd say to keep the white.. Personally, it's my favourite of the SA's but thats only my opinion. It also seems to be a dial colour which is pretty unique to your fine collection. Best of luck in choosing which one to sell and on your quest for the 6.75/flying B. I'm sure I speak for everyone here when i say i'm looking forward already to seeing some pics!

What!

Here I use you as the motive for getting a second 6.75, and what do you do? Trying to get back to one of each? Shame on you Driver!

But seriously, if your going that way (and I can understand you in a way) I'd also keep the white.

Driver8,

Keep the white although your going to keep it on the bracelet for the time being...they sure look sweet on a nice tan Croc.

No brainer - white all the way - less temptation for me.

Keep the white one mate, and if you need a home for your croco, give me a shout :wink:

Thanks for your input guys. The white is steaming away with it in the polls.

I was kind of leaning that way anyway.... but then I look at the black and I love it too! Wah!!!! (I just bet I end up keeping both! :roll: ) I'll keep you posted.

Driver8,

My brother, I cant blame you for now reconsidering the option to keep both, the SA is absolutely stunning regardless of color.

Every time I look at mine its like WOW all over again.

I have a few other Breitlings (Navi-World, Headwind, Chronomat) on my wish list before considering another SA but if all goes well I would certainly pickup a white SA (that's if they don't come out with a white AS).

I voted to keep the white face, as well. But you'll probably keep both anyhow so you should have put that in as a 3rd choice :P . Cheers!

Keep the silver dial.

If the black dial had matching black sub dials, I would keep the black. Since you own a silver Navi-World, though, it makes the desicion tough.
