Here are a couple of pics.... and a wrist shot.... Great watch at a great price. There were a hand full of speed bumps to get it here, but it all worked out in the end. Actually took him sending me three before I got a good one. The first one showed up DOA, he immediately shipped a 2nd after I emailed him a tracking number of returning the one I had back to him.... 2nd was caught by customs, and he immediately shipped out a 3rd, which got here. Took almost 2 full months (give or take a few days) from payment to watch on wrist..... but as they say... that's part of the rep game. (though I do not share that same belief) He got a little slow at returning emails towards the end... but he did deliver. So buy at your own risk. This is not an endorsement of his services, but only the product he provided.

house of souvenirs has a very nice and very cheap one, too. I think I paid $98 for my asian movement one. I took it to my trusted watchsmith that works at the AD and even side by side they were hard to tell the different without getting down to the nitty gritty. On the wrist you really can't tell. And even up close only someone that has intimate knowledge of the hand stacks, the spring bars, etc are going to be able to tell them apart. I'll try to post some pics. And the thing with the gray surrounds on the hour markers... mine look black. not as dark as the hour markers, but still look black to me. ::shrugs:: I will try to snap a couple pics with my phone cam and post them real quick....

oops.... I googled that but this is where it led me. lol found the link in your post. thanks!!!

I couldn't find a section for non trust dealer reviews, so I am posting this here. When I ordered my watch I know they were a trusted dealer on one of the site, but I can not seem to find which one now of the few forums I am on. Anyhoot.... has anyone heard from Lawrence with house of souvenirs lately? He stopped replying to my emails since the 10th. We had a hickup with the original watch, he promptly refunded my money since he did not have another one in stock. Even did so before he received it back. He contacted me when he did get another one in, I paid for it, he shipped it and provided the tracking number. I know it sometimes takes a while to get a tracking number to update, so no worries when nothing showed up until a week went by. He said he would check into it, then contact me and stated customs got it on his end, and he would send out another one that day and send me new tracking info. That was on the 10th. I have heard nothing since. Up until now, he always responded to my emails the same day. For all I know it's on it's way, but almost a week with no reply to three of my emails has me a little concerned. Even though he is not a trusted dealer here, there is nothing buy good that can be found about him here. anyhoot.... any heard from him?

and P.S. - why the hell does he have to "let you know" he filed a complaint with paypal. hahahaha You screwed him. He doesn't owe it to you to notify you that he is going to actually do something about it. So why did you post that like he was the one being the ass? haha
