Hi guys, I am rarely here anymore due to illness. I have decided to pre-occupy me from my pain.
I have chose to purchase 2 new watches. Both AP Divers, 2 different divers.
These both will arrive with asian 2824 movements
I just purchased 2 fresh Swiss 2824 movements from Switzerland..
I am looking for a great nodder who can do the following.
1) Install the ETA Swiss Movements
2) AR Coat the Crystal and Cyclops
3) Relume the dial
I will NOT use Vac for personal reasons and problems i have had with him in the past. I spoke
to Vac yesterday and it took me 30 minutes to get him to commute to a certain time window.
Then he started preaching religion and telling me I can stay alive, when the reality, my disease
kills all. I have multiple myeloma. and its NOT CURABLE. Vac should not discuss religion when
he doesn't even know my religion.
On top of that, i know a lot of old timers here. And the all email me direct. i have been told
by 3 members that they had to return watches to Vac because of problems.
His AR Coating is superb, his lume work is some of the best, his watch making skills are actually
not consistent and customers have had problems.
I hear how he has a new watch maker. i would assume that the new watch guy is doing the servicing,
That might be a plus. He worked on 2 of pans years ago, they went back twice and he could not
get them right.
So anyway yesterday i thought I would a Shot, this is a nice order for someone. AT first he would
not give me a delivery date. His answer was, I will get it done as soon as possible. Well I know
on the board who had watches at his place for 4 months, and some watches had to go back
to re-service and fix the problem.
So when I Vac that i heard form some senior members that he is getting returns, and I said with
life timeline, I can not afford that.
So what do you think he did? He said "DO NOT SEND YOUR WATCHES, FIND SOMEONE YOU
CAN COUNT ON", and you know what...i am glad he did it because if I have movement problems
and he keeps the watch 60 days plus 15 more days for re-dew. I do not have that kind of time in
the short period of life that i have left.
Then he went on to say..."Why are you playing with watches when you are so sick" If he would
have been here i probably would have smacked him.
Then he kept going on with his religious stuff, and he told me I was doing it wrong to spend alot
of time in prayer. He said thats wrong, if you would believe, you would not die.
Let me tell me stats on my disease. NO ONE HAS BEAT THIS DISEASE. IT IS INCURABLE,
BUT OBVIOUSLY VAC IS UNEDUCATED AND HE SHOULD NOT BE TALKING TO CUSTOMERS
TELLING HIM HOW THEY CAN LIVE. MAYBE HE SHOULD QUIT WORKING ON WATCHES
AND OPEN UP HIS OWN CHURCH...ESCEPT I DO NOT WANT HIM OR ANYWAY TO SAY
THE WAY I HAVE MY RELATIONSHIP IS WRONG. THIS IS PRETTY SICK STUFF.
NOW I KNOW WHY HE DOESN'T TALK MUCH..ANYWAY, IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME WITH
A MODDER FROM ANOTHER FORUM, THAT WOULD BE WELL APPRECIATED. THERE IS ALOT
OF TALENT ON ALL THE FOURMS. MOST MEMBERS STAY WITHIN THEIR FORUM FOR MODS,
WHICH IS GREAT BECAUSE WE NEED TO SUPPORT OUR MEMBERS WITH TALENT.
THANK YOU ALL FOR STOPPING AND LISTENING TO CRAZY DAY WITH VAC, AND I WE ARE
BOTH FINISHED WITH EACH OTHER. BUT I MUST SAY, HE IS PRETTY SICK TO PREACH TO ME
WHEN HE DOESNT' EVEN KNOW MY RELIGION. AND THEN TELL ME I AM DOING IT WRONG
WITH GOD. OH MY GOD, THIS IS CRAZY.
IF ANYONE WANT TO SEE THE EMAILS, JUST EMAIL ME AND I WILL SEND THEM TO YOU.
SOMEONE NEEDS TO SPANK THIS GUY.
ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND...
CHEERS, d
