  1. I want to send my MB off to be lumed and serviced. Also need my main chrono hand reseating/tightening to stop it sliding out of position. And finally I'd like the datewheel changing to one with a more realistic type/font for this particular watch. Who is best for this in UK/EU? Regards
  2. got to love how the chrono hand resets to 1.5 seconds and not 0 :S : (
  3. Yeah man thanks! I tried searching but to no avail... Now I understand I've ended up with a watch I don't want due to not doing my research properly woo go me! I wanted a smooth running "long and thin" second hand haha. PS. how smoothly should the chrono hand run on an A7750? and are the other two mini dials the power reserve?
  4. Mont Blanc Timewalker Chrono is the watch... so.. what is commonly the second hand on a cheaper/common watch is actually just used for the chrono? the seconds at 9 are running nice and smooth. but i always thought the main second hand would move also? and the other two mini dials were chrono?
  5. oh now it's moving if i press the top pusher, then it stops again if i press it again.. and bottom pusher resets it to 12? surely this isn't right is it? also it's really juddery, not smooth/swift like it should be?
  6. My MBTW just arrived... and the running seconds at 9 are running, minute hand is moving... but the second hand isn't : ( it's the asian movement. is it DOA? : (
  7. My poor watch is now sat all lonely in the local PO! I can't go and collect it until tomorrow due to the Post Offices in the UK only opening until 12.30pm on Wednesdays grrr!
  8. hahahaha quality! my [censored] nearly fell then! but 2 weeks : ( makes me sad but it'll be worth the wait!
  9. I ordered my first rep watch on saturday from Josh! I checked the tracking on ems which has been stuck on left despatch center for 3 days. I also checked the parcel force tracking which has also been stuck on "left country of origin" for 3 days. I know i'm probably whinging about nothing but shouldn't it be in my country now if its left china? Someone tell me it's all going to be alright and my watch will arrive please! Danny
  10. Sorry for bumping an old thread but i just want to say... I CAN'T WAIT FOR MINE TO ARRIVE!!!
  11. Hey guys, I've just bought the above watch. It hasn't arrived yet so I can't check if the sunken datewheel has been fixed or not on these reps. But if it hasn't, if possible, how would i go about raising it? Is there anybody you'd recommend i send it to who can do that for me? Regards Danny

  13. Hey guys!! thanks for all the replies, that example of the chopard Dan is absolutely stunning. I've ended up buying a Mont Blanc Timewalker Chrono (white face) from Joshua. Just an impulse purchase actually because it looks great imo! Can't wait for it to arrive, if there is no probs at customs that is Dan
  14. Thanks for the reply! I'm based in the UK... If there is no worries sending these to the UK then I'll go with the most reputable dealer, but if not, which of the dealers are UK based? Danny
  15. Hey everyone! Just thought i'd introduce myself as i'm guessing i'll be on here a lot now. Once I catch onto something I get obsessed, hence me owning 15 pinball machines now just because of one, pesky online auction I saw 5 years ago! I am looking to buy my first rep watch and I really would like a Rolex (because everyone knows the Rolex name). Also I've been looking at the Chopard watches a lot too... I'm just looking for peoples opinions on which dealer provides the best examples of both these brands. I'm looking through the forum also, but just would like some fresh opinions. My price range is only $400 per piece unfortunately! Thanks Danny
