I heard that all these watches make a bezel "clicking" sound when you push directly on the bezel from the 12 "o" clock position. my Skyland Avenger V3 Blacksteel does it. and I sent it back for replacement but the replacement was worse, so swapped it for the previous one I had. I been told its a common fault with these.

Dammit....so is it V2 or V3? V3 for closest to Gen dial and better movement?

if i'm seeing it correctly it's a V2.

If you take a picture of the bezel @ 3 o'clock i can tell for sure.

Curcio, Please tell. I can't tell if its V2 or V3....looks to be the same.

An uninformed guess would be V3 due to the shading of the sub dials. The V2 had more pronounced dots in the shading, but again I could be wrong.

Mine is just coming back from LFH : movement swap (ETA 7750), case swap, waterproofed, re-polished bracelet, the dial was relumed by Ziggy....Really great improvements...

V3 dealer?

Do you know which of our trusted dealers sell V-3? And do they call it V-3? I know there was some confusion about labels.

If I'm not wrong, its easy to see the difference between a V2 and a V3 looking at the number 1 from the 10 and 15 at the bezel.

From the picture daytona4me posted at the beginning of the post V3 is at the left and V2 at the right.

Just take a look at yours to see which one looks like!

I just bought last week a V3 and I'm anxiously waiting its arrival!!! Hope not to get any customs problems!!!

Cheers!

Look below and you will see the V2 & V3 Slate dial Breitling Skyland on my wrist..

That's correct. The V3 has the "flagpole" number 1, and thus is on the left.

My side of the story, V2 - V3 versions

My side of the story

V3:
+Better lume dots (sometimes)
+The "arrow" under the pearl is more sharp than V2.
+The thicknes of numbers is more correct on the bezel.
+Lume dot above #11 have a more correct distance.

-The red part on the second hand is to short and wrong color.
-Red color on "Automatic" is a bit off, should be darker.
-Nr 1 and 3 is way off on the bezel, 1 is a flagpole and 3 is straight.

V2 = batter rep; v3 has sometimes better lume; v3 has decorated movement... for me it was v3 as it was cheaper =)
