  1. I have a Noob explorer II and am not too happy with the bracelet it vame with. What do is recomended for a step-up replacment bracelet? I was looking at the Yiki 20mm http://www.yukiwatch.com/catalog/item/6784664/9897852.htm , but also was thinking of the TC Sub bracelet. Any advice? Thx!
  2. Yea I realized my mistake today. The watch works just fine. Seconds and chrono all work as they should. The only issue is the crown won't stay screwed down. I pinged Andrew and he offered to fix if I send back to China. Then today I found a local watchsmith who can fix if I get the parts. So, Andrew is sending me a new crown and stem instead of me shipping back. I know it will cost more, but I don't feel like sending back to China and waiting amonth or more.... Hopefully this will all turn out right. The watch is quite nice. Just a stripped out crown I guess.
  3. I orderd a few reps last month and they landed today. Was real excited to open them up and strap them on, but unfortuantly two of the watches have issues. One of them is an Explorer II (Tursty-watch item #ROLEXP2033 - 2011 Explorer II 42mm White ROLEXP2033) which has an issue where the second hand sweeps nice but the minute and hour hands don't go from the movement. I can set the time with the crown, but it won't keep time. The second hand just keeps ticking around but the minute and hour never move... Pretty dissapointing as this one and a Omega 45mm PO are both on the higher end for rep's and I can't enjoy either of them. I would rather send to a local (Houston) or at least a good watchsmith in the US who can service them and get them sorted... Any advice?
  4. So, I took the plunge and bought four rep's from Trusty last month. They arrived today and sad to sy but two are not right. First the Planet Ocean: trusty-watch #OMG0321C - P-Ocean Chrono SS/SS Blk 7750 (OMG0321C) = $378.00. The issue with this one is the second hand is stuck at 12 and the crown wont stay screwed down. It keeps time and the little second hand on the subdial moves. But the big second hand never moves. That and an a crown that won't stay screwed down... Next up is a Explorer II: Tursty-watch item #ROLEXP2033 - 2011 Explorer II 42mm White (ROLEXP2033) = $358.00. This one the second hand sweeps nice but the minute and hour hands don't go from the movement. I can set the time with the crown, but it won't keep time. I just emailed Andrew, but not too excited about sending them right back to China and hope they get it right this time. Pretty dissapointing as these were both on the high end for rep's and I can't enjoy either of them. I would rather send to a local (Houston) or at least a good watchsmith in the US who can service them and get them sorted... Any advice?
