Hi Rolexman, but I can feel clicking and slight resistance. After fiddling with the crown for a long time and scoring myself a slight blister on my thumb (for real ), I managed to change the date but only at a very uncomfortable first position (bascially a trial and error position between the first and second position. Every time I try to change it again I need to spend another couple minutes trying to find that "position") -> is this good enough a solution or something else I can do? Also, not sure if tis is a problem but I realized that the date changes at 2355 for each date. Is this normal? TIA!

Dial looks okie, not very obvious tilt to the left. sweeping movement looks fine Crown is rough and sharp at the edges - is sanding this advisable? Strap - have not treated it yet.

Hi Guys I just received my new IWC Mark XVI V2 watch from one of the TDs here. It looks great to me, but have a problem adjusting the date. Traditionally, the date can be adjusted by unscrewing the crown and pulling it to the first position. Mine doesn't work, and to change the date I need to pull the crown to the second position and adjust 24 hours on the hour and minute hand. Any DIY solution to this or advice on how I can resolve this myself? i am about to get a blister on my thumb for adjust 1 to 27! TIA! I will post some pictures after I clean up this little one

Gorgeous! Unfortunately difficult for me to carry this off without having everyone asking me if it is a gen and wondering how I could have afforded it...

there are a few on taobao that go for cheap - you can use a taobao agent, I think it's 5% on top - I'm not an expert, would be good to hear some feedback as well http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.293.kXWB9b&id=15002306484 http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.69.sS40D5&id=12798208403 http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.137.sS40D5&id=12489162315 http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.101.sS40D5&id=20391968533

for Tom Ford check out taobao if you understand chinese, if not use a site translator, keep the URLs and use an online taobao agent for your purchases

just saw Petitepaula's feedback on joy - she has some hits and misses and shipping is overpriced - on the positive side she has a review function on her site and i usually base my purchases off those. fang's bags are priced on the high side but i have had no issues with all my LVs and Chanels.

you guys may want to check joy - just google fabaaa joy or fang , fangfangbags and i heard ladyfashionsky is pretty good too hope that helps

I personally like the Big Bang All Black II / Big Bang Black Magic II on Joshua's site – really like the look of the leather with rubber below it (gummy?) but not sure if the watch / strap will be any good coz i haven't seen any reviews.

Hi guys, I know I can search for most noob questions but looks like I really need your expertise on this one. My dad has a gen Omega Speedmaster that comes with a bracelet but he's been looking for a leather strap for it. I went to the boutiques and authorized dealers but they told me they don't sell the leather bracelet for that model. I've found a few strap dealers online but not sure what strap would most suit the Speedmaster and what size. HKTan also takes a long time to deliver? Any advise would be most helpful, I would like to get one in by Christmas. Thanks everyone!
