During my conversation with Josh regarding the high cost of the blacksteel compared to normal skyland.....he mentioned:
"The price is justifcable. The pvd process is expensive. The individual serial nos and the choice of numbers.. All cost money."
The question again....is it justifiable? I really like the watch but $200 for pvd and numbering......???
Looking to order a gunny strap for BP. Can someone pls share as to what is the strap size for BP. I want to use the deployment buckle that comes with the watch.
Thanks
Rude? How?
I agree....@themuck spent time to research and list out the options....especially since @pappy97 took offence at the post being reported to mods.
Rude?
Same here. Want to pick up a tourby and have sent a couple of mails to Homer over the last week. Still waiting for a response.
His auctions on ebay are still active though.
Finally Josh has listed the price for the Blacksteel....a whopping $428. The watch will be ready for delivery in 2 days time.

Am really tempted to get one. Any comments on the accuracy of the watch?
Cheers
Thanks mate. Will keep a look-out on the bay. Would you be able to confirm if the gen dial will fit this rep (the gen dial has 6 cut-off and bolder numbers on the top)......as such it should if the date window cut-out position is in the same place.
Can't wait to get this baby on my wrist.
@archibald......you are right. The gen is selling for about $11K.
Not sure about the serial no. but at least they got the model no. correct and the caseback engravings seem fairly decent.
Any tips on where to get a gen dial for this watch.....or would it be possible for you to buy one for me....if you have a source.
Cheers
The watch will be released next week. Visually....the models relased couple of weeks back with the 21K movement look to be more accurate (cut off 6 etc.). The movement though is a big question.
Yes....get double AR and super-lume on this.....and should be alright.
Wonder if a gen dial will fit this....it should if the position of the date window and the dial size is the same. Anyone can help with this?
