I understand that the SA tends to stay traditional from year to year but do you think they will be making any changes over the next year?


Isn't it like their best selling model? I doubt they would make too many changes to it, how cool would an in-house movement be though :drool: . I'd actually buy one for my small wrists.


I think the Evolution is Breitling's most popular model.

The SA is not, IMO, "traditional". It's bloody huge! It's very popular, but I think that has to do with it's large size and wrist presence (large watch trend currently going on). It's a new-ish design (c 2004). It's not like changing the Navitimer. If anything they'd just make it bigger.

Mega Avenger :?:
They're too big for me, I'm only 5'8" and while wrist wise I could probably pull it off I think it would be too big for me overall. I could definitely see the Evo being their most popular model, they're are a whole lot of options when choosing one of them.

How about the new Chronospace? When I tried it on, I got very disappointed. Not in the watch, it was very appealing, and it felt like the perfect weekend watch. But because I have skinny wrists, I cannot possibly pull it off :(

$9340 on speed, $8340 on rubber, or you could just buy the Navi and the SA.
