  1. I had the same problem with my crystal and considered sending it back to Andrew for repair. Then I read about this fix and ordered a crystal press from Amazon. It was $30 with free shipping, which was the price of sending back the watch to Andrew. It took four days to arrive and four minutes to fix my GMT IIc. The crystal sits perfectly now and I took it to the pool today to test it out - works perfectly! Thanks for this suggestion.
  2. I tried the 46mm on at an AD in Singapore and it is huge. I have a 7" wrist and already find the the Chopard GTXL large, which is only 44mm. The small Heritage is 38mm and to me it feels much more wearable on a regular basis.
  3. After reading this post, I checked my GMT IIc Asian, which I received on Thursday and it has an uneven crystal too!!! Writing Andrew now...
  4. I ordered mine from Andrew two weeks ago and finally got it on Thursday. Like the Rolex Noob Yachtmaster I bought last month, the watch itself looks really good. It has a quality feel to it and for 99% of the people one might meet no one would suspect it is a replica. The Asian movement is very smooth and the power reserve must be more than 24 hours after a few days wearing it. The lume is also very good for about 5 hours. Where the watch is less authentic is in the band. The GMT IIc clasp is terrific, but the links are just not like a Rolex. I have a Seiko diver, and it is five years old. I've worn it everywhere, and the links are still silky smooth and show almost no signs of wear. It feels like a high quality integrated whole. The GMT IIc is supposed to be 316 Stainless Steel, but whatever the chinese use for chrome it dinks and scratches very easily. I've had it just a few days and there are already small scratches on the band, and it doesn't feel like the band on a $5k watch. From a quality perspective, these reps have a long way to go in comparison to Seiko. In the future, I won't buy reps that have ss bands based on this experience.
