This one is for me today guys

Although all of my watches,except SS daytona,are with date windows i would say that i definitely prefer rep watches without dw,mostly due to the fact that the majority of reps have got that part wrong(7750 ASIAN sunken DWs,Rolex misaligned dateweels,wrong fonts e.t.s)and i just do not feel ok with that. But when it comes down to gens i surely prefer them with date and day-date windows. John

Got it b Thanks mate,i am on to it right now. I really like yours though,so i think i'll go for that. Thanks again b John

Great work Samurai!!!way to go Is there something special we should take notice before or during the re-polish procedure with Cape Cod?

Welcome

I don't know...maybe its a bargain...but then again...VC + 1920's = 1000 euros...something doesn't fit...so unless you have the ability to take it to a VC service center or a watchmaker who really knows... This is my personal pov though,i dont mean to affect you in any way. Thanks for listening to my opinion John

i'll drink to that 1066!!! Welcome aboard Nav

lots of fun and wisdom in this famiy welcome mate

welcome

6 watches held in customs?where are u located?did you ordered them all at once?please forgive me for asking but it seems a little strange that all 6 were held in customs.sometimes it takes a little time to get cleared out of the customs,this does not mean that they were seized.

Nice to talk to you also mate.Just for the record i've been reading your posts from my day1 in RWG but i never got the chance to say hi. As for the crowns...i agree...go figure!!! C u later R.

Point taken,your opinion is greatly respected Robbie.Of course most of the things we do or say are based on our personal experiences.And of course i am not using my bad experience as a standard,that would be most inappropriate .I just thought it would be a nice chance to post an experience i had ,not regarding the quality of the watch but mostly the customer service i have been given by both the gen and the rep dealers. Thanks for reading my post but mostly thanks for your reply,your opinion is always appreciated. John

I couldn't have said it better BT... I would like to post a personal experience regarding the rep vs gen thing. I had to pay 80 euros for a crown problem on a gen TAG CARRERA CHRONO although it was within warranty time (8 months old in a 2 year warranty limit)just because the authorized service wouldn't cover any crown damage issues only mechanical damage...cost of the watch nearly 3000euros. Since then i had 3 reps (total worth of 900 $)with the same problem sent to my CN dealer,all of which were repaired free of cost and shipped back to me on behalf of my dealer's expenses (total shipping cost of 75 $). Could some one explain to me why should i waist 3000 euros or more on a gen and not get the proper customer friendly service i should get for a purchase at this cost?And on the other hand i get a more than customer friendly service from an unknown CN person-dealer,all for free... Beats me... Thanks for listening guys.

I couldn't have said it better BT...

I ve got the white dial version,purchased 14 months ago from my dealer. The watch is good and accurate enough,the ony major flaw is the lack of AR which is unique to Breit watches and takes the watch on to another level.But nothing to worry about,a double AR treatment from Chief will fix this. It is a very eye catching watch,the side ruler is functional and accurate and regarding the 7750 reliability on this watch i have had no problems till now.In case you are wondering about the small pin pusher button on the upper left side of the case it is used to scroll through the weekdays. Wear it well and in good health for it is an awesome watch John

Totally agree with this one. Besides if someone would ever doubt the authenticity of my watches i would dare him to buy any of them from me along with the paperwork This would be the only way for him to take a close look at the paperwork Papers are for sale purposes only.You dont just walk around with your house papers in your pocket,or do you? Cheers

Great presentation b16 Thanks for the effort.
