Congrats, great looking watch!! The lumes look great already; how long did you expose the picture?

Hey Lani, Awesome post! Just made my decision to get a BP as my 2nd rep However I've got one more question: In this thread you mention that the DW has been fixed and isn't as deep anymore as it used to be. I haven't found this information on some other topics but am very interested if you know how it was done? Gotta go shopping in Shenzhen in a few weeks to buy it

what do you say when people notice your watch?
altralazer replied to fulanito_uk's topic in General Discussion
I had my first 'encounter' about my Skyland last night. We were hanging around outside a bar and talking to another group of guys. One of these guys was wearing a pretty Navitimer and I told him 'nice watch you got there'. His reply was "Thanks; so why are you wearing the fake?" to what I only replied "Oh, are you too?" and all he could reply was "just kidding man, nice watch" -
My first replica: Avenger Skyland Blacksteel
altralazer replied to altralazer's topic in The Breitling Area
Thanks! Yodap, also thanks for helping me clarifying the version As I was actually dreaming of getting the Skyland in "normal" steel, I don't want to buy it now and have two Skyland's at home. Considering to focus on a Super Avenger for the steel colored watch, if the dial only had Arabic digits on it -
I finally got my first replica watch last week (unfortunately only get to post about it today). It is a Skyland Blacksteel. Full Dot @3, couldn't figure out though whether it is a V2 or V3 yet. It's the PVC coated one, thus darker then the actual Blacksteel - but the upcharge to get a better version is being saved for a second watch :-) I tried to take some pictures in the office, but they don't reveal much. Excuse the quality guys, they've been taken with a very cheap camera (guess that's the next important thing to invest into). It seems like I have to get the glass modified in order to be AR. Just don't know any place where to get it done - but I keep looking.

Short update: I'm in tough with several dealers now in order to get the perfect Skyland rep. After reading your review the fifth time, I noticed that you mentioned to have gotten it from Watchstation for $168. Unfortunately I can't find that watch on their website any more. The cheapest skyland seems to be the v1, with the half-lume dot @ 3 for $198. Am I misunderstanding you or has the marketprice changed so rapidly?
-
The $108 Breitlings from your stated website come with a Quartz movement, not an automatic. Hence the price. Depending on what you're looking for, that might just not be it.

Button Down - 1 shirt only for more casual events. Button Down with a tie is a no-go.

No willpower...soo much for "a watch i like, but prob never own"...
altralazer replied to hackR's topic in General Discussion
Awesome watch! I came across the Chronofighters while looking through a catalogue and immediately checked the availability of a rep - yours looks great hackR! I fell in love with the pictures of the Chronofighter Oversize Overlord MK IV and the Oversize Diver Date Turbo Diver. -
finally got sold for EUR 3211
-
Thanks for clarification! Indeed very nice pictures, another great Breitling!
-
Being a noob and still learning, I just want to clarify if that is a Super Avenger or a Skyland Avenger? The later being what I'll get next month.
-
In the text the seller agrees to pick the watch up at his location in Germany as well. Somebody around who would like to visit him?

316L Really? Update #3.5 Gen Rolex Case
altralazer replied to Bike Mike's topic in General Discussion
Great report, very well described how to check, what kind of material it is! Although 316L can be purchased all over China the steel is imported as Chinese steel doesn't come in this grading - Mike please correct me if I'm wrong. -
@Lani, They can have them ready within max 24 hours for as far as I've tried @Mike, They just love to watch us struggle, even though we might enjoy it
-
Thanks guys! @ Mike, are you talking about spicy Sichuan food? That's indeed the best Chinese as far as I'm concerned!
-
Although the weather currently isn't quite suitable to wear them, I got them during the last summer, Prada PR57LS.

Hi together, I've been reading through this forum for almost a week now and decided to like it already! Short introduction: I'm an expat currently residing in Shenzhen, China (soon again Hong Kong, luckily!). Rep watches are a hobby of mine. I've recently talked about it with a friend of mine who recommended to check out this website for professional information-exchange...and from what I can see so far, it really is a great board with great characters!
