P4GTR 0 Posted January 29, 2013 I'm with you guys, I can't pull off a SA. These new Skylands are great. Did they change the size? 45mm? My skyland (previous generation) is like 43-44mm. This one- Dave.. Payment sent! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HWG 11 Posted January 29, 2013 I thought all Skyland models are 45mm... Dan, you may have to make me a proper strap for this one. I have not decided if the bracelet gets brushed, stays polished, or gets replaced with leather. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mostling 40 Posted January 29, 2013 Talking about the bracelet, how do you go about brushing it? Thinking it would look nice on my Code Yellow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HWG 11 Posted January 29, 2013 just a simple scotchbrite pad, in unidirectional motions, and be patient. no fast strokes, no circular motions, just straight lines. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mostling 40 Posted January 29, 2013 Ah, gonna try on the inside first then and see what happens. Thnx! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HWG 11 Posted January 29, 2013 I think there is a tutorial about it here somewhere, but I just winged it. I used a dremel with a fine finish pad for detail spaces. Also, the brushed bracelet of your wolf will fit your skyland... try that change first to see if you like the look. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have not decided if the bracelet gets brushed, stays polished, or gets replaced with leather. I didn't like the brushed bracelet on the skyland case, YMMV. The Skyland looks good on leather, you know how to find me D. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mine is rather quiet. Keeping good time so far. The chrono pushers were a little tight when I unpacked it, so I took off the case back, shot compressed air in, greased the seals and its running fine.
