Post subject:  SA V Skyland
I have wanted a SA for a while and am just/was about to purchase one, however I have just seen the skyland on the web (not seen this one in person) and It has thrown a spanner in the works. I like big watches but was concerned the SA would not fit underneath a double cuff shirt and if I am not mistaken the Skyland looks little the little brother of the SA, am I right?

Can you get a Skyland with the baton style hour markers? When was the latest update on the Skyland?

Any help greatly recieved :D

The Skyland only comes with the stencil style arabics, and it hasn't been changed since it was introduced two years ago.

if one doesnt fit under your cuff, the other wont either.

lol. I have an SA and there is no way it will fit under a cuff. Thankfully for me, my new job (started 2 months back) requires me to wear t-shirt, shorts and thongs. (and I still work in finance!)

I am considering my next Breitling purchase and am seriously considering the BCE as a dress watch so that it will fit under my cuff.

ummmmm, now i dont know what to do! I think having a SA on full show when visiting clients is not the best practice if it wont fit under a double cuff!

I either select a different model OR buy the SA for the weekends> :roll:

So the SA really is unpractical for someone office based Mon - Fri!!~

It really depends on your cuff size. My SA fits under all of my cuffs except Hart, Schaeffer & Marx shirts. Fits fine under Abboud, Burberry, Hickey Freeman, Nordstrom Custom and of course custom shirts (I wear the SA to get those fitted). Just take a measurement of your wrist with the watch on plus 1 inch (2 cm) for clearance and measure any shirt you want to buy. Either that or I am just a little silly about watches. Either way. :lol: :mrgreen:
