BrianSW510 Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 A lot of people have their Skyland on the original bracelet. I used to find it too shiny, but might try it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Navitimer Posted May 7, 2010 Report Share Posted May 7, 2010 Well, i look around for a V2 with decent lume dots and when i saw this one, i knew it was the one. I'm sure you will Lurve your skyland as much as i do mine! Already have a pro diver arriving and shopping around for a graphite/dirty grey leather belt to go with it... Drop me a PM if you see one Also, shopping around for a Gen Pro 2 cos i think the bracelet is divine.. even the rep is fantastic. I believe I saw a picture at the forum of one like the one you mean on a Skyland V2. Looked awesome!!! Will look for it and let you know! If you find one yourself please let me know too!

By-Tor Posted May 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Wow... what a great thread this turned out to be. I'm not wondering that Skyland is so popular. It's an amazing rep and watch. Definitely my #2 favorite Breitling after the Fish. @Delta: Please post more shots of the blue version. I really like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAMman Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Excellent thread. This just makes me want to get my 'project' Skyland completed. It's getting a Swiss 7750 + correct-fit hands from a Series 1 rep Chrono Avenger, but I need a Breitling-style datewheel. Does anyone have a correct pattern datewheel, as fitted to the rep Skylands? Please drop me a PM if you can help. thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opti Posted May 10, 2010 Report Share Posted May 10, 2010 Well yous finally did it, you made me get one. love the bracelet look, but took a while and a bit of work to make it feel good as By-tor said in his review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please drop me a PM if you can help. thanks. Got the datewheel sorted - the hard way. Thanks to a 'heads-up' from a member here I snapped up a genuine Breitling movement, complete with daywheel, on the 'Bay. Now the whole lot is with The Zigmeister to have that movement serviced and dropped into my V2, getting lume dots & hands done at the same time. Can't wait to get this one back on my arm. It should be an 'ultimate V2'. Will post pics when it arrives home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
