I don't think you can find too many AS BS from AD's anymore. They're rapidly disappearing...but the SA BS is still being produced and you can locate one fairly easily with a little bit of research...or your AD can order you one.

The bezel on the AS is a little different than the SA. Plus, I think the SA has "Swiss Made" on bottom of the dial and the AS doesn't. I'm sure I might be missing other details, but they're pretty similar.

Subdials and bezel, it really does have "swiss made" on the dial (didn't notice).

Yep, some red on the subdials the words Swiss Made and size. They even screwed it up on the breitling website :shock:

Does Breilting still make a Blacksteel Skyland? It is not in the Chronolog 09.

Nope. One year only in a run of 2000 units worldwide. Same deal with the SA this year. Only 3000 for this one though.

Guys....dont forget the logo on the tang buckle; SA=embossed AS=flat (not sure about the terminology)

MY STORY>>>>
I purchased my AS BS thinking it would be the "ONLY" blacksteel from Breitling.
All of a sudden, out of left-field the SA BS comes out! Obviously, I would have preferred
the SA over the AS :(
Truth is, it gets very little wrist time ever since the SA joined the game and I am seriously considering trading it for something else 8)
