dluddy Posted November 2, 2008 Report Share Posted November 2, 2008 The Skyland seemed to be one of the best selling Breitling models I have seen on the boards. Is it just me or are there a large number of these showing up in the Sales section lately? Why are people selling them off? Too Big? What say you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwhitesox Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I think it's more to do with the fact that everyone jumped on the version one rep and then they updated this with the version 2 and now the version 3 ( updated version 1 with better lume dots). I just think that people are updating from the ver1 to the later versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ta8088 Posted November 3, 2008 Report Share Posted November 3, 2008 I simply think it's because so many were sold that there's bound to be quite a few sold off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibbs Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Doesn't bother me .. it ment I could pick one up 2nd hand in the EU a bit cheaper than the dealers! As I have with my 2nd watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbh Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Too big and cumbersome on the wrist for me. Plus the lume dot at 4 was a little irritating on V2. I preferred the SOSF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c0r Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 People weren't prepared for the size. It makes the evolution seem small. I wear it daily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I think it's because there aren't enough real men out there...only people who think they are. For more info...read my review. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllergyDoc Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Poor lume killed it for me. And I figure I'll get the Deep Sea when the good one comes out, so the Sky was redundant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beefy6969 Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 Rumors has that the Ver.2 Skylands are having problems with their A7750 movements. There is a 20% chance that your recently bought Skyland will die or stop ticking any day now. There is a long thread on RWI about this. Perhaps that's why people are dumping them?
