That looks really good there, and I sooooo want to love it..... but I just can't (for all the reasons I've given on here a few times before).

Such a shame, as it looks The Business! :?

I still say they need to bring out a ceramic or solid tantalum version of the SA..... with matching bracelets. Now that'd be cool!

I love the watch, but I'd fire the marketing director.

Real men wear black?. Alright, so what are all the other costumers who bough other models?.

I don't know, maybe I've been a little bit too much, but it just doesn't feel like the right thing to say.

I rest my case about it being the single most bizarre idea Breitling have ever had to make the SA Blacksteel look so similar to the AS Blacksteel.

Yep, like I've said already, I believe the SABS de-values the ASBS limited edition status. Sure, don't get me wrong, it is a fantastic looking watch, same as the AS, but why oh why make them so similar?

But seriously, how the hell can they depict an AS on the website... that is just so "amateurish".
