This makes perfect sense. Any further suggestion on how to "...learn the mechanics"? short of studying a lot of movements and trying to connect the dots between function and the slightly different keyless components and their arrangements that perform the same function? Are there any published guides that might be helpful?

Try Perfect Clones.

I've gotta Navi and a Skyland Avenger that I can't stop wearing. It's 45mm which is plenty big for me but if you've been dragging around a subaqua, you'd probably appreciate the Super Avenger at 4mm.

Photos??

ROTFL!!! I've got a few canal st 'rerpetual crqnqmeters' hanging around that are slated for practice pieces. I'll get the cam and post some photos later.

Getting confused here...I thought we were talking about skylands not supers. No V4 supers as far as I know, only V4 skylands

V4 is not a myth. Check asian7750, Perfect Clones, or InTime. make sure it's the V4 from the H-factory with the correct '1'...no flagpole. This is the biggest tell. I've got one incoming now.

Hope he didn't break the stem off flush with the crown neck...

Up here with 'da folks' in Montgomery Co. Germantown, MD Have u identified any rep friendly watchmakers in the area?

BTW...u in PG county?

+1 what he said...although considering the price of some gens these days I might drop that threshold to 25%

Check my earlier response.

I'm going for one also...here's what I've learned. H-fac is definitely better, but then u have to pay attention to versions. V2 is good and doesn't have 'the flag' on the '1'. V3 is supposed to better but it took a step back by bringing back the flag and a number of undesirable features such as poor lume. There's supposed to be a remake of V2 that corrects all that and is better than V3. Problem is trying to identify it. Right now I'm looking at Perfect Clones, Puretime, and hoping my 'go to' dealer, Ryan at Intime can source the correct model for me. For more info check the v2 v3 comparison in the Breitling sticky section at RWI.

Nice photos. I'm pulling the trigger on one (grey dial) soon. I've read there's remake on the v2 that's even better than the v3. Can anyone confirm this?

Boy! this opened up a can didn't it?
