hello everyone,
as I am going through these trusted sellers on here and I want to get this Sky Dweller simply because I want to try something different. Has anyone here owned this model or ordered from someone you like can share? if you have owned one then please tell me if this model is a good watch to own . Do you have any issues with the level of quality and the movement? Which factories make these better? I have seen so many factories making these watches like ZF, NOOB and many more and I really have no idea what to choose.

Regards,
Vina

Noob was the best available, but even that version had some fairly visible flaws to the trained eye. If you can find one, that will be your best bet

Hm, not that hard to find?!
InTime has a pretty decent collection of all, even the new models, from Noob:


nice:




ok (28 of the datewheel looks different from the other models for some reason :unsure:):




very nice:




very very nice:






Thinking of ordering the RG Blue Green, although the 41mm are bit to big for my taste, hm not sure ... so I can't really say something bout the quality of this "new" Noob factory :unsure: ... but the pics look good so far :cool: ✌️

I suggest you look at a Gold Sky in person. The rep will come nowhere near the presence of the Gen.

Yes the Yellow Gold with Blue Green dial is the one I am trying to buy. the reason that I'm still hesitant, like you mentioned, Sead from Puretime also tells me the Sky Dweller models aren't as good as the Subs, Daytona and DJ in terms of quality and performance. This is why I'm still hesitant about it.

I know these are just reps but why don't they use movements from like Seiko NH34-35 something like that like the Pagani's. Pagani Design watches are also Rolex copies, but they at least use Seiko movements. I think they run better. these copies are copied extremely well but using Asian movements is hard to understand!

This is a Pagani Day/Date I have that used Seiko automatic movement. it runs pretty good!

💯
Having handled a Gen Sky, the rep doesn’t come close. @vinarama Subs, DJs and Daytonas are definitely closer to Gen (Looks, movement and function).

@g00n : the photo in the pool , is that Sky Dweller a Rep ?

For being a Rep, is not that bad...i never saw a Sky in Gen form, and i am sure that it is WAY different comparing to Rep....but in that shot yours is beautiful !

ok thanks for all of your opinions. As Puretime and Chasingtime also confirm that the Sky Dweller isn't that good. I really like this model but I have to drop due to its quality. now it's time to look for another model!

Wow.

So even the TDs themselves admit the poor quality Reps? :unsure:

They must be really bad then...
