Hi everyone, i have been a member for 4or 5 months but i have been a silent member until now. Reading everyones opinions and advise has been great. I have been a huge fan of the breitling range for many years (especially the SA ,also B2 and Le Mans). I have been itching to buy a SA for awhile , once i saw the new SA with batons i knew the time had come. I finally received it a week ago ,within this week i have been looking at it often , but to be totally honest i can not remember looking at the time from all those glances i have had. I know the personality of the person dictates the brand and model which is close to their heart and this was mine , in my humble opinion i find it superior to the previous SA model , it's such a beautiful watch. I have been reading that there is a LE SA ,one question i have is , does anyone know the difference between an SA and a LE SA. I will be trying to get some pics posted, thanks again for all the info from everyone . :D :)

I decided to make it a military theme, my friend has contributed with his collection of Hot Toys.

I think the LE version of the SA you are referring to is the Blacksteel (i.e. DLC) version. A couple of members own them so there are a few pictures on here. Here are a few courtesy of Colonel Ling's thread -

Congrats on joining the Breitling club, and an official welcome after these months.
You've got your answer to the LE question, and you've got your picture instructions, so you know what to do :wink:
