Breitling Avenger Skyland V.2 Grey Dial


rckh

Recommended Posts

I never like Breitling.....but after I found this....I fall in love with it.....Compare with my IWC 3717; both for them are pilot watch....But Skyland give me Modern, Tough, & solid feel.....Double AR is good...The SS band is 100% fit & very comfortable....the shinny band & huge case keep telling anybody around me that "See my watch".....As some of you may know...I'm freak....I don't like A7750....THX so much for Angus to swap the ETA7750 for me!

Try to contact my faithful dealer Puretime(Angus). He will offer you ETA7750 Skyland as you request!

The SS band is very nice but the high polish surface always collect a lot of finger print. Also; It's really heavy. I just recieved my "deBeer EUROPA baby croco grain with white stitch strap". Swapped & very nice looking; will take a few more shots late!

Best Regards,

Raymond

My coworker purchased the Skyland while in China and he had asked me to take it to the watchsmith for him (I live in an Asian neighborhood with a watchsmith that is quite rep friendly).

This may be or may not be pertinent, but the watchsmith remarked that the Asian movement was very good. There wasn't any unusual stress. He said that it should be good for a year or two if worn properly and kept in a winder. He also said that with proper service there shouldn't be any issues.

Maybe my friend got lucky, but I think the Chinese are just getting "that" good.

The Chinese are getting good? Check out the Seagull double tourbillon. I was on Cathay in the business lounge and they had an ad for that watch in the front of the luxury magazine. The watch now proudly states "quality since 1955". When they want to be they can be better than anyone else. :D

Now would somebody please tell me if the bezel mechanism is any good? :lol:

kruz, out of 3 breit's i have , the Sky V2 has the best bezel! very tight and firm, no play at all. i was shocked when i first got it, its that good. now, i am not sure how consistent is the quality in all of them.

Poor manners on my part. The pictures look really good, and with the croc strap from the other thread the watch is smashing. Where were you able to get the croc, Raymond?

Dear friend:

Here you go:

http://www.strappedfortime.com/DeBeerCroco...oWatchband.html

Strap for time. This's the 2nd time I ordered from them. Excellent Quality + Reasonable Price + Lightning Fast shipment = Highly recommended!

The Gen straps are way too expensive; I don't know why they ask for so expensive price for straps....maybe AD try to scam me, Ar? ...crazy for USD$688 Croco strap without buckle!

I can buy an AP Hornback for USD$320 only....

Best Regards,

Raymond

is this the same avenger precious time is selling , the 'ultimate' ?

Yes, this is the same watch PT offers....I placed my order over a week ago, unfortunately he ran out of stock and I have to wait untill his new shipment arrives....damn I hate waiting.

Theo

P.S.: I ordered the watch with ss bracelet and additional rubber strap....placed another order for a nice grey croc strap some minutes ago!

so is this watch around 700-800$ usd?

or you can get the V1 if you can handle a half lume dot at 3:00 for $200 :)

which is cheaper than buying a 2nd 7750 so, if your watch dies :) get another for 200 - then get a 3rd, STILL cheaper than getting an ETA. - and, i have never had a 7750 die on me. ;) so its a pretty good bet
