Hey guys,
i'm a newbie here and thought i'd share this with ya'll. Its the blackbird with black leather clasp. I'm really enjoying it and I think i'm hooked! Already looking into my next one!
This was bought at Fords Jewelers in NJ. I cant recommend these guys enough. They were great to work with and I plan on doing any future purchase there.

Welcome aboard!

Beautiful watch! I love the Blackbird - the bracelet is so cool and such a perfect match for the stealthy dial. The big date is also super cool, a bit different from so many other watches out there.

I'm glad you had a good experience with your AD. Enjoy your watch in good health.

Welcome! I was pleased no end when I found this website and forum! It has provided me with no end of entertainment, camaraderie, help and fun. The Blackbird is a favourite of mine. Although it's not a Limited Edition, I think it could well be considered a Special Edition. The back is unique, the steel bracelet with bevelled edges is unique, the large date with the black background and white digits is unique. The whole watch is real understated elegance. The black leather strap looks great with it as well, first I have seen on Blackbird. Enjoy!
Cheers,
Carl

Lovely watch. It looks great on the leather (I'm a big fan of Breitling straps anyway) but have you thought about the bracelet for it? The Blackbird bracelet is very unique and sets the case off nicely.

Either way, it's a great piece. :thumbsup:

Yea, i did think about the bracelet but wanted something a little more sporty. Also my Tag had a steel bracelet and wanting something different. But i'm pretty sure i'll get one in the near future. Its too nice not too!
best,
jason
