UB7

This guy is nuts, but i'm sure flying over the swiss alps with nothing but a home made jet pack strapped to your back @ speeds over 100mph is orgasmic..And gotta love the product placement. He's wearing a big bang

Got my vote!

So this is watch mark's "All black" and it doesn't have the gold '2' like the tempus. And best part is, it's actually affordable @ $415. I like this much better than the tempus, and I would imagine it would be more convincing on the wrist considering the tempus is limited to 50 pieces and cost $25,000. Thanks to Micky for finding this beauty!

Very interesting, and great news! But i dont understand how they can rep this considering the gen isnt even out? Crossing my fingers that it wont cost me an arm and a leg

Here's a cool site i came across..Unfortunately its in japanese but its not hard to navigate through. It lets you pick any model and see what different color straps will look like on your watch - pretty neat

oh nice, i've never seen that one before. looks good. is it just me or does it look like they improved the writing on the rotor? theres a gen tempus on the bay right now going for 22k! limited to 50 pieces

Wow, the all black looks nice..Looks like they improved the rotor aswel. The senna on the other hand is not so nice, not accurate at all :\ The price on the other hand is not so nice. I wonder if anyone here will buy 1?

cso today

skyland tomorrow

CSO today

This also was happening on my slevin

Which 1 am I wearing today?

Gen skyland today!

Have a great week everyone!

UB7, this is a gen right ?

yes sir, here's a pic of my 2 breitlings

It wears similar to the SFSO in that they are both very thick, but the diamater is slightly bigger on the skyland -wears just a tad bigger than the SFSO. (the skyland is 45" and the SFSO is 44" i believe)

Unbelievable write up Pix, thanks for taking the time to put this together!

I agree with kruzer in most everything you said. However, trade in's are usually for convenience, and most of the time they will lowball you and not give you what you want for the watch you want to trade. I got lucky because i'm friends with the manager of the AD i buy from and he gave me exactly what I paid for the colt II towards the skyland. Again, price's for all high end brands will be increasing effective may 1st, and it will be a 10-15% increase so if anyone is interested in buying a gen now is the time. The 2nd hand market is a great place to buy if you want to save a alot, but keep in mind you dont get the warranty and sometimes they scratch off the serial # - this makes it's resale value not so great down the road. The AD i buy from usually gives me 30% off and that most of the time ends up being a much better price than the 2nd hand, and it comes with the warranty and all. If you can get a 25-30% discount from an AD, it doesn't make sense to buy on the 2nd hand IMO

@phaedo : i had my colt II auto for about 30 days before i traded it in, and my friend gave me exactly what i paid for the colt II towards the skyland. given the colt II was in pristine condition and virtually new

It wears big..Very big @ 45mm, especially on the leather because in proportion the leather looks alot smaller in comparison to the watch..On the pro 2 it wears a bit smaller. Keep in mind i have a very small wrist, 6 + 1/2 ..Go for the breitling phaedo, you wont be disappointed..The BCE is a winner, along with the skyland, the CA, and the cockpit to name a few..All of their watches are great and a little bling wont hurt ya And if you don't want any bling, you can always go for the steelfish which is all brushed..And just a little pointer, if you want a gen watch now is the time..Price increase for all high end brands is coming at the end of the month..Expect a 10-14% increase very soon

This is how my AD visit went today, traded in my colt II auto for this skyland slate grey dial, picking up the pro 2 on friday, but in the meantime here are some pics of it on black leather
