  1. Looks Nice, but when will they get the screw heads right!
  2. Look at the angled insert just inside the crystal. If you look at the numbers you will notice that the 60 has been printed as an 80 by mistake. Josh has posted pics that try and hide this flaw, but its there.
  3. At this point you have two choices. As the new Super Avenger has yet to be released, I think only Josh/Andrew and Angus have access to it at this point.
  4. Its cheaper because they want to send Angus a message. Andrew doesn't have the SS bracelet listed yet as its not available, but Josh has the SS listed at the same price.
  5. I think this one is perfect, provided the "80" gets fixed. If not I'd go with the V1 half dot, the 80 would drive me nuts.
  6. Very nice! Because of the dark dial, those Tags are hard to photograph. Now that you've got the "bug", you should consider sending it for an AR treatment!
  7. Hey mate, congrats! And great choice of a watch to commemorate your achievement!
  8. Not true, Josh has the SS bracelet for $268 http://www.pc-80108.com/0000blsa10014-skyl...bph-p-4788.html
  9. iOffer seems to sell a lot of reps, as well as certain websites not affiliated with us. I imagine that a lot get sold in Chinese markets as well.
  10. I've always believed that these boards probably account for 80-90% of their sales. Google "replica watch" and see how long it will take to find our dealers. Its a good set up here, watch enthusiasts who can spot quality, not an endless stream of "tire kickers". I think these guys are making extremely good money simply selling to us.
  11. $30 shipping? I don't think you could ship that across town, let alone across the globe for $30.
  12. Its good... for now. But, one of two things can happen. One side loses the war and goes away, or the two sides come to an agreement and the cartel grows. Both scenarios aren't good for the buyer.
  13. Thats true, but this doesn't seem to be about pricing. It seems that Angus is purposely trying to sabotage J&As sales efforts. Price decreases are simply a retaliation.
  14. In the past week we have seen some very interesting behavior amongst some of the bigger dealers. Josh and Andrew debuted the Ver.1 Skyland to mixed reviews, but were clearly making a killing on this long awaited rep. Then, unexpectedly, Angus posts a message that he has a different Skyland coming soon, and buyers should hold off. He posts no pictures until the following day, when we finally see Ver.2, coincidentally priced at about $10 cheaper than Ver.1. The watch is still incomplete, has a glaring error, and is minus the Pro II bracelet. Now J&A have posted the Ver.2 (oddly there are no pics on the site, just a photobucket link) at about $20 cheaper than Angus' price. One does not have to be a fool to see that there is some unrest between our Asian dealers, and possibly between the rep makers as well. IMO this has resulted in some fair pricing for us, but what will this mean for the long term? Your thoughts?
  15. Nice collection mate, and beautiful photo as well! Looks like you need to add a Navi though
  16. This one looks really nice. Like I said, the bezel markings aren't as crisp, and the lume dots appear to be more blob like than on the gen, but over all it looks great! Too bad this would never fit my 6.75" wrist.
  17. Thanks for posting! That is an awesome watch, despite the minute errors. I'd also like to know how well the bezel aligns (yours appears to be one click off in your pics), and how the crown/tube is constructed?
  18. I agree. Unless you can live with scratches, stay away from PVD or any gold plating. SS, Ti or ceramic is the only way to go.
  19. One thing that bugs me is that the marks on the bezel aren't crisp. They looked great on the Skyland, but are kind of rounded on this one.
  20. My bad, inaccurate Breitling catalogue pic Heres another "real" gen
  21. First thing I noticed is that the 8 is cut off Heres the gen
  22. Sorry guys, my image host server is acting very slooooow, I'll post them as I can get them
