Enjoy, Skyland is my all time favorite!

We took some pics today of the scratches today. So stay tuned, maybe Ant or myself will post a few up. Other than that, I agree the SA blacksteel is very nice. Hopefully Hont will send one with no imperfections next time.

Looks good. I like it, just not sure I like it for myself. Whos the bay seller?

Today, my favorite-

thanks so much guys. Full-on helped resolve the issue, aside from the 7750 needing a service.

Bezel 1's are wrong, not hooked, but flat. Pushers are way too long. Must be V2 movement, V3 dial, V1 bezel with Zulu titty pearl. Rehaut is way off. Looks to be swiss clone of GZ gen. Edit: crown guards are too short, and date is not perfectly centered. This is a $20 canal st. piece.

when I unscrew the crown, im in winding position. pull once, im in date position, pull two clicks, im in time set. I've done this many many times with ETA 2836 etc. Like ByTor, I always do it in time set mode, against most peoples advice, but it never fails. I've only screwed up keyless works when trying to reinstall in winding position. I'm good with the stem release button pressure, using the correct tip, etc. My main worry was how the chrono buttons attached to the movement. This seems to be cleared up greatly. I was able to (without decasing the movement) get the chrono hand straight again, thus making the watch back to operational status. Thanks so much for posting, you guys made all the difference. If I choose to attack it later for a more perm. fix, I will. But I may leave well enough alone, this watch has a place in my heart, I need a 7750 specialist to service this.

no man, removing the stem, removing the chrono pushers? Are the "extra stems"? I know how to remove the movement tabs, thats about all I know. I think its going to zig, STAT. If you're reading this expect an email, R... It's overdue.

I posted this in general because I really need some help, and this is where I will get the most exposure. I've removed movement/dials from cases before but not a 7750. I need someone to please point out how to do this. A tutorial, anything with pics, or some advice please! My chrono hand has come loose on my Skyland and I really want to fix it. This is my favorite watch, Its going to drive me crazy until its fixed. I cant seem to find anything that explains the process to remove the movement from the case.

You're killing me lately. You show me a Skyland.. little did I know they were not flooding the market. I want one on bracelet. furthermore.. I miss RobbieG. I want a gen SuperOceean, but I want the chrono. Those are pricey! Thanks for giving me good taste RWG. Im wiggling my ass; about poised to liquidate most gens and reps for a gen Skyland or Superocean Chrono. And so what if my watchbox is more than half empty? Steven Segal smiley would approve.

That is a shame. A boutique brand should take your watch in like a lost piece of family, pamper you, then stick you with a bill. Like a Four Seasons hotel. Piaget, eh? We may not be the biggest watch forum out there, but i'd recon that didnt help Piaget much.

Damn B. + 'ing 1. Everyone from the guy that just joined today, to me, to even someone like ByTor.. I think we're an ever-evolving bunch. I realized just today, 40mm has become too small. Months ago, I wanted a gen 11610 and wondered if Skyland was too big for my 7" wrist. Now its my attainable grail. The thing is... the rep is so good, why bother? There in lies the route of the problem with our hobby, if one had to be earmarked.

tell him to find your stuff (maybe he kept it, and would rather give it back than pay 450 eur) or to reimburse what you paid for it, otherwise you'll be forced to deal with UPS. Maybe you even know someone personally at the local news station that would love this story, you might tell him. NEVER us UPS unless you have absolutely no choice. Use USPS only, for everything/anything. If UPS loses your stuff, your a rat in a maze, and you're not getting out. Just trust me on this.

i've a noob YM dial, brand new never mounted.

I bet your stomach dropped down to your nuts when you unwrapped that and your eyes hit that minute hand. What I dont get is sending them back. They just drop ship another one, 50% chance or better that it comes back as bad or worse. So, better get going on that TZ watch school. Gotta know what to do with that replacement minute hand you're going to receive in about two months. The way I see it, we're basically assembling these watches in our living rooms ourselves, just like they do in guangzhou.

That was stranger than a hit of decent blotter paper. Wonder if I'll feel like [censored] tomorrow when I wake up.

rad shots Lani.

love the outcome. A lot of work went into this and it shows! Edit: Is that same(rayskin) strap in an earlier picture?

The MBW's came out really good. The 4-0 connecting urks me a little. Though, thats the thing with the rolex "tells".. They urk me more than any other. Knowing they can get much more complex details correct, the Rolex sport line shouldn't be so difficult.

bwahahahaha... I LOL'd. Jury's still out on this watch. I'm definitely not in love.

Thanks guys, that was serious business! Excellent review! I just got mine the other day, very happy with it. It is my graphite skylands evil alter ego!

We will do some pic taking, lets try to get together in the next week or so. Ah, I wasn't exactly hiding the 3 o' clock lume from hell, but I certainly wasnt trying to magnify it under a lens either lol. When we do your gen's, I suppose we wont have to worry about that, eh?

Hey! I recognize that Blacksteel... I "adopted" it from Ant The gen SA is rediculously nice! Wait, so is the SOH... When this guy comes to work, my jealousy kicks in pronto!

Blacksteel for the past few days
