The airborne 44 is nice but it's a B01 and on 22/20 when your wear it. It's not a big deal but sometimes it makes a difference based on your wrist. For some 22/20 becomes ever so slightly tiny. The airborne 41 is on 20/18.

The blackbird is in 44 & 48 and 24/20. You can't do justice to the blackbird in pictures, no matter what! You have to see it in flesh. It's so damn nice, unless you are concerned about their DLC coating. They still last, as long as you don't abuse the watch. The blackbird 44 even has a red accent around the date window but it's white on the blackbird 48.

:bow: I love the black dial with its matte finish and the different color lumes in flesh, absolutely gorgeous!

So, its your call. To each, his own! :strummin:
