I must say, the SA is really comfortable on my ~7 3/4" wrist. It has a well balanced feel to it!
Tomorrow, when I go back to work, I will test it out in my work environment (in front of a computer)

Thanks to all who have helped me with all my Breitling questions!

looks all to be good...some employees like throwing things. I'll never forget I caught one throwing something of mine. I yelled like I had never yelled before...

He was very apolagetic.

I said "HEY YOU CANT JUST PUT IT DOWN THE NICE WAY? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO THROW IT? YOU KNOW WHAT'S IN THERE?"

Sorry, sir.

you better be !

UA Plumber - great reply! :uplaugh:

Spartan: Great collection! I never thought I would be saying this, but the SA with the Batons is the best of the three. That means I like it better than my AS Blacksteel, which I see you have also. Never did care much for the SA, but with the new dial, it has swayed me completely. Now - once again - I don't know what to do! The Blacksteel will, at some point be sold, but I have a Steelfish that I wear every day. I am a one watch kind of guy, now I can't decide whether to keep the Steelfish, or get a new Seawolf, or maybe even a SA. Or I can wait till May to see what kind of new surprises Breitling will have for the 125th anniversary. At any rate, I am really most happy to have this dilemma. And very fortunate too. I guess I enjoy the hunt for a new Breitling so much that I have to put myself through this again!
Congratulations on a fabulous watch. I am sure the wait must have been pure torture. I remember phoning my AD on the day I made up my mind to get the Blacksteel before it was sold. I had to take an hour off work, and I was so excited by the time I got there, I was literally out of breath.
Enjoy!
Cheers,
Carl

For me all 3 pictured are great watches; all special and unique in there own way (at least for me) 8).
All are keepers, for now!

I think my BS will see the least amount of wrist time and the SA the most with the Chronomat only on special occasions

Nice pics Spartan! That “snooping wife comment” was too much for me to keep a straight face … LMAO!! I have a few Casio’s and Citizen’s that all look the same to my wife that I wear in her presence. I generally keep my favorite watches out of her site line. Hey; come on now … I do not ask her about the constant trips to Anne Taylor! Any how; I am now tormented by the decision of a white SA with numbers or batons, and you guys are no help parading around with your fancy new “baton marker SA’s”. Am I going to have to buy one of each now?

I love my Black dial SA so much, that I wouldn't mind getting a white dialed (Batons please) one as well 8)
In my case, my SA would have to be batons and not Arabic numbers because I have a Skyland (Arabic #s) ,
a Chronomat (Arabic #s) and a Ti Seawolf (Arabic#s).....
