Just make sure you get it from a dealer that do QC. Sucks to send it back due to bad dial etc etc... Goes for all watches though

I sent my watch to him in mid Aug so i was one of the last to send to him i guess. So your theory might not be bad. I had to pay no shipping costs and i never sent any money. It just came back.
-
Thats to bad to hear yacht_master. Lets hope you and the others get a package soon. Now since i dont know the reason for getting my watch back, im not sure who to thank. But want to thank all the ppl (including myself) that has worked hard "behind this thread" to get their stuff back. Ill also thank Jakub or/and the unknown guy who made sure that atleast some stuff gets returned to their owners. Lets hope that Jakub post an explanation when he feels that he is ready.
-
OK checked the mailbox today... mail from Poland!!!! Went down to the store to pickup my package. It contains my missing TAG from Jakub!!!!!! I never thought this would happen. No work has been down on the watch, and it didnt came in the same package i sent it with. So it has been repackaged. No explanation either. Im still a happy camper though. Now it would be great to hear what happen with Jakub. But i guess thats another story.
-
wtf, need to check my snailbox. edit* damnit only bills. But it was exiting to run down to the mailbox *edit
-
Thnx Dani for your help. Lets hope for some news.
-
Thats just sick.
-
Thnx iceberg for your help. That Corum looks real good on Daniels wrist. Not so happy when i see it on pics though. Something new to research about
-
What is Daniel Negreanu wearing in Poker after Dark?
-
Cant agree more with yacht_master. IF section on board = Valid ID.
-
No word here either. About he looking under another account. If he uses a proxy/bouncer/thor/anonymous service he will be hard to track. If he uses a ip spoof there is no way anyone can track him.

Ill just drive my old beemer. Cant wait until winter... drifting tiiiiimmmeee.e..e...... This spring ill get the a3 3.2 quattro. Need someting faster. *edit* RobbieG that 911 is a killer. Congrats mate *edit*
-
I was wondering the same, was just about to make a post out of it when i saw yours. Should we try to get a 4`th gen PO fast or wait? Seems the 4`th gen PO is drying up at the collectors. Anyone?
-
Update from dealer: He offered to send spare dials for the UPO. Even though i have no idea how to change it i belive its a good solution. The best even. Easier to find rep friendly watchguy where i live then sending the upo back to .ch.
-
Will be nice to see if those emails from j will come true or if he is just buying time. I can only speak for my self, but my end date for this story is 14/11. If no word from him after that all hell brakes loose. Always wanted to go to Poland in the fall, anyone else want to join?
-
Thanx alot for your replys, the solution seem to be that i should buy watches from dealers that do proper qc. Why didnt i listen before... I have bought all watches from the same dealer so i guess i just have to ask him what he think about it. But it is sad that my 300$ wont get me a watch without faults on it. Stop buying them? No way hehe. This hobby is not god for the mental health.. Thnx again for your time. Edit* Btw, not including my whining above, i have to say that the UPO is a monster!!! In a good way that is. My wrist have never looked this good *edit
-
Thnx for the input. I have no doubt the dealer will help me if i ask for it, question is more if its ok with all these small faults. These 3 watches are all the "best" version, and in my mind they should be flawless... Dont mean compared to the rep more that a logo should be straight, a datewheel should be aligned etc.
-
Hi, Im pretty new here and have bought 3 watches from a recommended dealer. Its the Tag Link (blue face), Carrera racing and UPO. Now all off them have had diff. errors like gasket to big and pointing out from the case, non working chrono, badly aligned datewheel etc. Did not really care about it for the first 2 watches but now when i got the UPO im starting to wonder if i should expect faults on the watches. I mean they are not for free heh, almost spent 1000$! Below you can see the UPO. Its not as bad as the previous ones but the 3h marker is not 90% straight it looks a bit tilted, same with the Omega logo. I cant see these "faults" on the dealers website. Expected? Ask for a new watch? Crying over nothing? I know its not the biggest faults on a watch, but it annoys the living ** out of me. Thnx for the input.
