"I have a feeling the 3 pack I ordered from Ofrei is simply wrong / mis-labeled. The OD is nearly 35mm. Went ahead and ordered from another source." Probably the wrong gaskets. 29 = part category 325 = 32.5mm 10 = 1.0mm I had to stretch a few out a little before installing them...aft/mkt, not genuine. Maybe you got 'regular' and you need 'bull size'. Ha! I'm talkin' 'bout caseback gaskets here. Oh no... I read it bassackwards. I'll shut up.

"...how did you manage to install the gen tube ? did it fit the case ?" All 1675 came with 5.3mm tubes and crowns. All 1655 came with 6.0mm tubes and crowns. Modern (sapphire DJ etc) with 6.0mm crowns use a 5.3mm case tube so you can put a modern 6.0mm crown on a 5.3mm case tube. Submariner 7.0mm case tubes have the same threads (where they screw into the case) as standard 6.0mm case tubes. 5.3mm case tube threads are 2.5mm x .25mm where they screw into the case 6.0mm/7.0mm case tube threads are 3.0mm x .35mm where they screw into the case

I'm getting very jealous of these 6/9/12 Tudor chronos... 1016 here:

Chanel J12 Explorer I, Louis Vutton, Datejust Masterpiece, Chanel J12, and Dooney and Bourke (not-a-rep)

I think you will be surprised how well a Skyland Avenger will sit on your wrist. The curved lugs should hug your wrist and look good. I have 6.75" wrists and consistently wear 44mm cases and even have a 50mm U-BOAT in regular rotation. For me, it's about the length of the lugs.
