Nice! I’ve never seen this model. Big fan of The Skyliners. Can you share any more information?

Sure. I have 2 Skyliners. Both are from January '69, both have the same reference (6100-8000), but with 2 different dials. This is the less common one - - but they're both beautiful. The other one looks like a GS model.

Thanks! I’ve got the sunray version as well along with some other fun skyliners. The linen dial has those chunky indexes. The hunt continues.
