Just received my Skyland today(well worth the wait) I absolutely love it, everything in order, all the books packaging etc.

Got one small problem - Local jeweller doesn't want to try and adjust the bracelet but after looking closely am sure I could give it a go! Has anyone done this process before and could give me any advice? Muchos gracious!

ps. Before you guyz start, no photos until it's on the wrist first so if you want to see it please help!! :D :D

Great to hear you finally got it, and that you sized the bracelet yourself!

Cheers boys! The wait has been a killer but I'm so pleased with the watch its even better than I thought, really smart. :D

@ aleister - Cheers, thought I might aswell give it a go, local jeweller wasn't so keen so I went and purchased a set of precision screwdrivers and wolla! Not that difficult at all and only took a few minutes. Now all I need is one of the rubber straps when I make my mind up about that!
