My Gen Tag Link Calibre S..... Love it

my last order with a TD was something similar.... adked for a model, yes it is in stock pls pay.... i pay and 2 days later "sorry the factory does not have it and thwy will have some new ones in 2 weeks"...... ok [censored] happens I choose another one..... bezel insert out of line... i reject and they INSIST there is nothing wrong.... I answer back i need to seek help in the forum... next day the show me that the bezel insert is fine, it was just the picture taken from the wrong angle... yeah right! bottom line is, myself as well did not name the TD in this occasion (perhaps not as bad as your case) but it seems wherever you have a negative feedback from a TD you will get shot by other members saying that all is heaven. since i joined this forum i have learned a lot, done plenty of research and trully believe that this cases must be open for the rest to see. At the end of the day a feedback is a feedback, good bad or medium it allows members to make informed decisions.... and not only on watch models. how many times do i see newbys asking "who can source the best Omega?" and the answer is.... "welcome n board...and read the fn forum!" Why can we be more open when serious miss trust has been experienced by a member and a nominated TD? At the end of the day we trust these guys with our cash sent to the other side of the planet. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Good job man.... So if the TD refuses to change it there is a solution. I may have to take this route as I was told that this is a very common problem on the SMPs. Would you consider this an easy job? Or where you sweating while trying not to f&@k up the watch? The cousins uk tool, how much was that?

hi people, i am having trouble with one of the TD (i will not mention who at this time). From the first qc pics i noticed that the bezel insert is not in line with the rotating bezel.... something more than one of you has come across as i did my reaserch in this and other forums. The TD insist there is no problem.... perhaps my watch lingo is not getting the message across, or i am a bit to anal. Thoughts and help tips are appreciated. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

can you align the insert in the bezel? I am having some trouble accepting a SMP because of this... even worse when the TD insist that It is aligned Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD how do you do this Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

Hi chaps, I am currently in the middle of my hols in sunny Bodrum, Turkey afd find myself an IWC which i honestly do not know if its a replica from an original model or not... either way I like it a lot. But first a review on Bodrum market and the replica shops.... seriously not the best quality and price, tons of quartz models and qc rejects from the top end replicas. And of course the mechanical movements are from japan and swiss....yeah right! If you mention this forum they bring top notch watches from a briefcase but want a wooping £500.00 for them. However a day on my own while wife and kids enjoy the pool i saw this IWC. I think is a cracking looking piece which would need some mods. The crystal is single AR but i believe its mineral crystal rather than sapphire. The build looks decent and the dial details are well made and the full see thru case looks great. The rotor if inspected closely looks a bit tacky. What suprised more is the quality of the strap... nice thick leather looks the business wi no need to replace it in a number of years. Al of this for £85.00. My thoughts are to either replace the crystal or do a proper double AR so suggestions are welcome. I live in the UK so any tips will be much appreciated. My apologies for the quality of the pics from the ipad and looking forward for your comments. Cheers B Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
