As we all know, this hobby is full of ups and downs. The watch arrives broken or you don't get it at all. For the most part I have been fortunate and have never had to rely on the sellers guarantee. Let me begin by saying that I have used Vac for several mods of watches including three on my UPO. First two were no problem and then we ran into a problem on the third. When I let J know the problem he immediately jumped into action and bent over backwards to fix the problem. His response was not what I expected at all especially his willingness to make it right.
Trust is earned through action. He has my trust and I will be lucky if he takes the time to work on my projects again.

This is a link to the Omega Database:

You can search every model and find the model number and order from Ofrei.
Best of luck.

Are you just venting?

That is terrible.

Just ordered a bracelet (which is going to be a catch and release) and a watch from Andrew 8 days ago. Arrived today (US), no problems at all.

Just bought a simple HP online for my fiance to use for her PHD. It was like $400 at Best Buy. 3GM RAM DDR3 350 GB Hard drive, quad AMD. Thing moves pretty good.

Ha. Yes it was.

The site in question now has its domain name up for sale, so please get off the new posters case (which I am also one.) He was warning everyone about someone who now has fled the web. If this was the way the guy conducted his business,as another poster states, why would anyone stickup for him (other than a personal friend?) If he was having money difficulties, a little, simple, honest communication would have sufficed, to most, and may have prevented ill words being posted about the website.
First, welcome. I see you joined today. The issue with WM9(George) has been going on a long time and has been discussed here in countless threads. Of all the threads I have read (I am waiting on a WM9 as well, paid in full), I have yet to find anyone sticking up for him. What Pete was stating is that this thread is old and all has been discussed and is out there for people to find. In this hobby patience is very important (2 years for a watch is nuts) but what else are you going to do?
I hope you enjoy the forum.

Don't panic yet. I am prepaid, and in the top 10 of fulfillment order. I am staying put a little longer.
I'm right there with Ronin and I paid BK. I have a great deal of faith in him, but he can't control George. I 100% absolute faith BK will make good.

Nothing failed by making a superior product Ken.
The one thing Ken is correct on it will take some time for you understand the many different flavors in spirits like scotch and whiskey.

Might I recommend Woodford Reserve Bourbon. Pretty inexpensive ($30) and just smooth as silk. And yes, drinking scotch and whiskey is an acquired taste. Drinking really good scotch on the rocks should be a crime.

Pretty cool and disappointing. Looks like a bar graph of a business over its' head and zero solutions to capitalize on the success.

Picture?

Got the Chopard Las Strada boxset a year ago for the fiance. Great watch she wear's it all the time. Or you can go with the Ladies Tag Link that Reg sells. This thing is bulletproof.

LOL!!!
my watchmaker ordered 2. One for me and 1 for me :-)
That's exactly what I thought.

Awesome Pull Kurt! How many were you able to source at $19 for the membership?
-
My bad. Got numbers mixed up and D-Rock corrected me. You do want the 25-295-C2. I just pulled up the tech manual.
-
The C2 is for the Explorer II. You want 25-295-C1.

Ubi:
Then I join you in calling them out. I may be an as'hole but I'm not that kind of as'hole.

Knowing what I do regarding this, I can't say I'm terribly shocked by the behavior of some specific individuals. Seems as though making a profit is more important to these people than that of a gesture of kindness or friendship
UBI, was that directed at me?
