hi everyone...
I'm looking for a simple-faced Air-King
or a
DateJust Midsize with Oyster bracelet for my wife
[she has a very small wrist but wants a boy-look watch]
30mm face is the go
no diamonds, roman numerals or fussy faces... just something really simple
anyone know a reputable source
or a trusted dealer?...
further
anyone have experience of timeshop.net?
thanks in advance...

would you IWC experts like to point me [a newbie] in the right direction
and comment on who you think has the best 42mm Spitfire Chrono? for sale currently...
I see a few around but most seem to be 38mm/39mm
thanks in advance...
having severe Pro Hunter envy
missed reg's last black sub
by procrastinating
for a day
anyone know of a good qual PVD Sub
[or preferably a GMT Ceramic]?...
or
if one is on the horizon???
or is there anyone out there
who will coat one I supply as a project ?...
hi guys n gals
I'm new here
but have bought five watches
through three different dealers
who are regularly mentioned on this site
in the past month
three have arrived in great condition
and are as advertised
[very happy]
I received a [$300] watch from one of these dealers today
which I am very disappointed in
as there are two MAJOR PROBLEMS with the order
I'm looking for advice as to what I should do
and expect to be done to fix this
I won't mention the dealer
as they have not had the chance to rectify the problem yet
I'd just like some help with the perameters
and what I can ask to be done
specifically...
1. the watch is an IWC chrono
the chrono hand on one of the sub-dials
HAS FALLEN OFF
and is loose inside the watch
even the most casual glance
would have revealed this glaring problem
as it is red in color
and I noticed it within 5 secs!
therefore
this watch has been drop-shipped
without any kind of inspection!!!
2. I ordered a specific brand box and papers
I received a DIFFERENT BRAND box!!!
I did my homework as best I could before purchase
including checking the member postings about purchases
and feedback on the dealer
before purchasing
[and there are good reviews]
I also read posts that detail
how some of the problems with dealers are resolved
but they are a little loose on the detail
eg.
can I expect a completely new watch
or
will it be repaired an returned to me?
who pays shipping cost for return?
can I ask for a refund of the whole cost?
[and purchase elsewhere]
etc etc etc
any advice on dealing with the dealer would be greatly appreciated
thanks
I have a mixed bag of tricks
all bought 'over the counter'
in various parts of asia
and in various states of repair
a real good looking speedmaster pro [auto]
a tag carrera pro [auto]
and my baby
an IWC Titan limited edition chrono [auto]
that I have not been able to identify anywhere
[so probably a fantasy]
that I absolutely love
they need looking at
I'm in NYC
any ideas?...
thanks guys
