Wow! You have wonderful taste! SA black dial, batons, and PRO II. And SOH, black dial and mesh strap! To me, those are perfect configurations. Congratulations!
Cheers,
Carl

Excellent.

Try the mesh on the SA too, it does fit at 24mm and looks excellent too! :lingsrock:

I've already tried that, but i think it doesn't fit the proportions of the SA. The SA is a chunky massive watch and the mesh bracelet is too delicate for it. I've tried the Chrono-matic 49 on mesh but it just didn't feel right. Don't get me wrong I love the mesh but I feel it suits the SOH best.
But should play around with this in near future I'll definetly post some pics.

I have both my SOH and a Chronomatic 49 on mesh and they feel good to me!
Personal preference but the mesh on the Chronomatic adds to the old world feel.
Also, the Breitling leather strap and deployant clasp is so stiff it would take years to wear in.
Now the strap (whic cost me about US$700 lies idle)...

Very nice pair you have.

I was very tempted by the black dial when I picked up my SA but went with the white in the end.

LOVE the black dial. More every day. A very different "feel" than the white. You absolutely need both!!! :P

Two SA's?... not for me. I'd rather buy a different model. Unless were talking Blacksteel + White Batons :)

Probably very wise.

I DID have 2 SA's at the same time for a while - the black dial with arabics on the bracelet that I still have, and I also had a white dial with arabics on croco too for a while. Both great, and it was hard to sell one, but I definitely made the right choice as it freed up some space for my 6.75! :thumbsup:
