Shanny Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Hi, guys! I need your help. Ordered Avenger Skyland from Precious Time, just got message from him that he has received the watch, but there are problems with the movement. So now I have a choice - PT can give me the same package or can upgrade it to SA without any kind of additional cost. The biggest factor is that I have 7+ inch wrists. So, what you would do? If there are some who wear SA with 7 inch wrists or smaller, could you give some feedback of how it looks and post some pictures? BTW. Top service from PT, always fast responses and great communication overall. Great guy to choose for your first order, as I'm doing it right now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steppen Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 why not go to an AD, try them both on and see for yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xslyyx Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 My personal view is that SA is really nice looking watch and its great! BUT at least I get tired of it and went back for Skyland! One other thing....u will not be able to weare shirts and suits! The SA is tooo damn big for it =)) So my experience is that that Skyland will have more handtime. Both are wellmade though! Why not go for both if u have the finance for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 The Skyland just about perfect in terms of size and everyday wearability. I have a 7.25inch wrist and found the SA to be too big. The Skyland is just about right, the SA just felt like something I would wear for other people rather than for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I had a similar issue (with another dealer)....my Skyland broke down after a couple of days.....sent it back...was offered the SA...took it....and have never regretted it. IMO....the SA is far better than the Skyland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreww Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I think the SA would be too big for you. Lots of guys will tell you that the have a 7" wrist and that they love it, but when you see their wrist shots it looks ridiculous. I think you will get a lot more enjoyment from the Skyland. I haven't taken mine off in the 2 weeks I've had it, and I can't say that about any of my other watches. Usually 3 or 4 days before I'm putting something different on my wrist.

Toadtorrent Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I have smaller wrists (6.5") and find the Skyland is where I max out. I tried on the SA and it was BIG. The Skyland is big...but mostly in terms of thickness. The SA is big all 'round (thick and wide). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave123 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Compared to a Skyland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanny Posted March 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks all for your replies. Great pictures Dave! Choose Skyland, it's a great rep and as I'm planning to wear this as everyday watch at first, SA would be just too heavy. This probably won't be my last rep, so I'll see how Skyland looks on me, maybe I don't need anything bigger, maybe I need. Thanks guys for your help!

I have both black and grey but grey is.....wow what can i say. Specially in sunlight.....its AMAZING I ordered the black one. Just looked at lanikai's comparison shots. Don't know, I just liked the black one on rubber better than the grey one. And if I really like it, I might also get the grey one for complete set, as it's hard to choose Edited March 12, 2009 by Shanny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave123 Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Dave123 are they all genuine?? I know your GMT and "diamond" SA are genuine but what about the rest?? The SA Blacksteel is genuine (obviously,no rep yet) and the blue baton dial pictured had a gen dial installed into the rep,the skyland was a rep and the black numerals SA was a rep on a gen strap.

Rikske Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Skyland on 6.7" wrist. For me the biggest I can go without looking rediculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
