subbiesrock Posted July 22, 2010 Report Share Posted July 22, 2010 Your camera and photoshop skills are extraordinary Mr. B, plus it's a Breitling, which isn't all that hard on the eye to begin with, let's be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnCraig Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 BT, I need to swear off your photos, too damned expensive. Nicely done as always Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougaree Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Guys, I have a v3 Skyland. I'm thinking about getting a v2 just for the 1 font. Should I do it? Will miss something from the v2 that's on v3 already, which could bother me? I've read some people's postings saying that the v3 has better dial and deeper engravings on the bezel, but I don't know how much better is better. Does anybody have any side-by-side comparison pictures? Are all the v2 Skyland same quality or I should just get what BT has (graphite dial)? Thanks! Cougaree p.s. I don't mind have the dial dots fixed by Zigmeister, in fact I'm going to do that anyway, so dial dot is not a big concern with me. What I'm interested are things that can't be fixed unless buying another watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 Thanks all. @cougaree: The dials are completely "hit and miss" regardless of the version. I've seen both v2's and v3's with broken lume dots. I wouldn't order this watch from a dealer myself (unless he posts a picture of your actual shipped watch). Wait for a member trade where you can see the dots. I don't think v3 has any advantages over v2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougaree Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 v2 is the way to go then, right BT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted July 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 If you already have a v3 I don't think upgrading to v2 is that important. Those differences are minimal. I know I wouldn't. But if you don't have a Skyland yet, v2 is the one to get (imho). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cougaree Posted July 24, 2010 Report Share Posted July 24, 2010 I see. Thanks BT! I guess I should not get one especially I have already had mine redone by Zigmeister. However, if I can get one that has the bezel separated from the case... I can have the crystal Chief AR'd... won't that be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
importr Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Guys, I have a v3 Skyland. I'm thinking about getting a v2 just for the 1 font. Should I do it?

Does anybody have any side-by-side comparison pictures? Are all the v2 Skyland same quality or I should just get what BT has (graphite dial)? Thanks! I thought that the v1 & v3 had the same longer pushers than gen. Also the half guilloche on the sub-dials wasn't as well defined as on the v2. The chrome ring on the sub dials isn't as well executed on the v1 (& poss v3) as it is on v2: sometimes slightly eccentric, rather than concentric. V2 is definately the one to buy. btw, I once had 2 v1's and 1 v2, plus a spare v3 dial now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
