"If this guy opens up a Paypal dispute please let every forum know his name, so that he can enjoy his watch hobby all by himself!!" Yup.
"That was me, right?" Yes but happened w/ another piece also.
As I am fond of telling stories let me tell this one: Good seller EU had a nice piece like 3k , worth it IMHO. I PMed we talked about watch this and that and I had to pass. I told him "if I buy M2M from Eu I right the money/watch off if I can afford to and am willing to take the risk" in this case I was not, he understood.
Guys make sure your buyers know you do not guarantee shipping (we are not dealers M2M) , as watch held up in customs (this happen to a brand new Gen being shipped to me for three weeks ) it is not lost.
"Not responsible for any customs issues" is a good disclaimer
or mine " Can not be responsible for customs or shipping lose, watch is running tip top but lord knows how the post will handle it or if the Postmen has sticky fingers! "
Waiting on the Deep Blue Juggernaut W/ MOP dial ceramic bezel to come back in stock and picked this up for sh*ts and giggles today .
Going to get a BLk rubber from them for it should look much better.
PS on the Renato was unaware only 75 made so good buy.
"but one TD is $30 more expensive, anyone know why?" Toro is cheaper right, small TD tighter margin most likely. I find Toro and SuperMirrors a bit cheaper on everything, smaller selection but if they have what you want...............
We shall see can just sent it back for shipping. Wanted something yellow for the summer and no the yellow Avenger at 18.4 wears like a hockey puck could not go there. (love the dial though ) Also wanted to be able to get it wet w/ no worries at 300 meters I think I'm covered.
This one was a close second:
Well picked this up
I hate Renato as a rule as to big but this one came in under the wire. Swiss movement (quartz ETA G10.711) handmade at 300M depth rating and shark strap could not pass it up.

Well I really do not know , I do not bother what's the dif never wear one long.This being said the Tudor in our raffle is running +- 5 seconds (courtesy misiekped) and the Borealis Sir Francis Drake I sent out in a raffle long ago running +- 1 sec a day (no loss n three days per jpz) , I bought another but never checked SW200 movement also fraggle. It would seem the SW200's run well.
Guys as indicated before I always left custom (one man operations ) out of the running but if the factories want to price as high as they are, well so be it. I rather buy from them at that price point than play the lottery on getting a good one. FYI this has nothing to do with your TD, they have little control.
Just keep in mind guys the present nuclear reactors AKA Fukushima are old designs. more study on cold fusion and pebble reactors are needed. Although I think Nanuq's slant on harnessing the heat from the earth itself is the way to go, as solar is not cost effective yet.
Funny Tom was just discussing solar roads w/ my son yesterday.
Voted another: going w/ TC V6 now cost wise about same as some APs ( some are more) in the past did not count custom guys like Bk /TC in there but w/ prices what they are these days why not.
