I see, well so far I have received (after a lot of delays, but kept the pressure on Al), four watches Al had for eight months or more.
Jonathan's IWC 7 Days (RG Member Northernmonkey), this was supposed to of been a full movement service, but my findings proved it was not serviced at all, it kept stopping, so I carried out a full movement service, and returned it to Jonathan in a matter of days. Al owes me £149 for this.
Colin's IWC Top Gun (RG Member colinwhufc), again, Al said this watch had been serviced, but yet again it has d not, so I carried out a service, and returned it to Colin in a matter of days, he has since received it, and is over the moon with it, having not seen it in almost a year.
Paul's IWC MKIIV? (RG member whufc), yes, you guessed it, this was supposed of been serviced, and only needing one part for it to be ready to go, but alas when I infected it, the movement had not been serviced, and in fact, the movement was damaged, the centre seconds gear was messed up. This I have since fitted a new movement, and Paul has received it back, and happy.
RG member Sphere24, Al returned his high value watch via a lower cost Royal Mail option, when Sphere paid for Special Delivery Next Day, needless to say, the watch has gone missing now.
Graham's ROO (RG Member Kernow, and aka Kernow here), his Roo arrived to me, Al said most of the work was done, and the movement just needed a pallet fork, and it would be good to go. As you can see from my photos, and video earlier, this movement was also damaged, pinions broken off, hands glued on, and the funny thing was, the pallet fork was fine.
Charles (RG Member Firnatime) Paid Al for a full service and other mod, around €350, Charles watch was returned in Tesco carrier bags in bits, Charles is currently wanting a full refund.
