Breitling Skyland more news...

[piratedzeus]

Quote from PureTime (Angus):

Just saw some other dealers are offering the 1:1 Breitling Avenger Skyland on rubber strap.

But today I received a great news from the maker who makes the Ultimate Breitling Chronomat Evolution that their Skyland is releasing next week!! I dont know what are the differences between the 2 versions but I advice the potential buyers to hold your fire until the new one is out.

The current Skyland is made by the maker who makes the 2nd gen BCE. According to our previous experience, the ultimate BCE's quality impressed most of us and we hope this maker will bring us another Ultimate Skyland! Will update the pics on RG once I got it from the maker!!

This maker also makes the ultimate HBB, BB King and the upcoming Concord C1. The price should be about US$300 without shipping, more or less the same as the ultimate BCE. And bracelet version will release first.

Please feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions. My e-mail is [email:3vdjwzxc][email protected][/email:3vdjwzxc] or [email:3vdjwzxc][email protected][/email:3vdjwzxc].

Just proves...wait a lil bit and you'll have a choice and with that comes a better price after a little wait.

 

[piratedzeus]

Waiting usually pays...

AP ROO correct datewheel colour
BCE correct datefont
SSD better bezel, better bracelet
many more 8)

Very interesting... Hopefully the second factory reps the SS band at release time.
I personally will be waiting till the PVD skyland comes out. This Skyland is just too similar to the BCE; a black one however would be pretty slick.

Yeah, so that version from puretime will be 300 WITH the bracelet, whereas the others were launching with the rubber strap, still charging 300 and then probably adding an extra 30 dollars for the privilege of getting the version with the bracelet. If that makes sense [smilie=dontknow.gif] . and if you buy the rubber strap SKyland, you will NEED the bracelet so will end up having to but that as an extra. More wonga.

Yeah, the PVD version is FIT!! Looks nice and stealthy.

My next imminent purchase (next week) is gonna be a SFSO white dial asian, followed (when $ allows :lol: ) by BCE/Skyland - which out of the two will come first I dont know.

I HATE REPS they are too addictive :roll: :lol:

Just to remind everyone...

The Skyland LE is NOT PVD...it's black steel, which is chemically treated steel heated in high temperatures to change its' color...

No rep then. Dang.

Good one trevor.

 

[speedster]

Yeah, I reember reading that in Brtelecs original post on the skyland about it being blackened and not pvd. SO if they do make it in the black colour it would probably done via the PVD route(?) as its a known method for them rather than the witchery and wizardry of the blackened steel route. Who knows?! Conjecture and supposition (ha, Ive always wanted to type that phrase).

 

[anton.bhc]

I guess they would rep it in PVD anyway...but it won't have the same texture or finish as it would if it were blacksteel...

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but light reflected on black steel would be considerably different than it were PVD.

 

[fakemaster]

That is not PVD.

 

[dave123]

That was mentioned,it is blacksteel.... :roll:

The rep will be done in pvd though,if it does come out....

 

[fakemaster]

Yes it was. Wouldn't want to add more affirmation or anything.

 

[Klink]

That is not PVD.

 

[LegendofSpeed]

don't give up on a black steel version yet

 

[mickeypro]

it looks like Angus is showing them on his site with a leather strap currently. Did he confirm the bracelet version is going to be the same price?
