Apologies guys it's been a busy couple days
So both pieces were delivered on 22nd 9 days after ordering and payment made, came well packaged as usual from Andrew but most dealers will do the same, they don't want broken movements etc either
After unpacking them I do what we should all do and start my checks to make sure they both work fine and get them ready for a good clean etc
Hublot was the dirtiest I've seen on the bracelet but the head was clean as go figure
Check all those screws are nice and tight
Both were fine with no marks on them and working really well so good clean before I took these pics and job done I really wanted to try a Datejust and I'm so pleased I did the dial is bloody awesome and changes all the time in the light, Andrew lists this one as a blue dial but it's def a green mop, it's a nice dress watch but still manages to wear well with jeans too. I must admit that I always put Datejust and Grandads together in the same sentence but after having this one for a couple days I'm changing my mind and wondering which Datejust to get next time The Hublot is a fantastic looking piece and I really should love it but not feeling it, I love the very simple dial and the size is great too but I think I'm just a Rollie whore after all expect to see it in the sales section soon.............
Some more pics
So I hope that this thread showed you some of what you can expect when ordering from one of the Trusted Dealers here, I hope I've shown that your not simply rolling the dice and hoping for the best when you use them, Andrew is just one of the dealers here and I have used others here with very much the same experience from them all, above all you need some patients when you order, my best advice is this Check Stock, Order, Pay, Approve your Qc pics swiftly, and then just forget about the order and relax till it comes to your door tread your own path...................
