  1. This is a Crown & Buckle strap and it certainly isn't Asian. They are made in Florida using Horween leather sourced from Chicago. Nice try though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk This is a great quality strap I purchased from crown and caliber. It is better than $150 straps that I've purchased in the past. Cost only $30! Came with an extra loop that I took off due to having a large wrist and using the second to last hole. Didn't need it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Bravo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. I love this watch it looks great has good weight but will hit everything and anything all day. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. I am in the process of ordering a DSSD from Trusty Time should I go ahead and fork up the extra $120 to have the watch serviced from the get go or wait a while. The movement is a decorated Asian 2836-2. Thanks,
  5. So I received my QC pics and the pearl was slightly off which is just no go for me. I told him to send it back to NOOB factory and get me a better one. He said a new batch will be released in 5 to 10 days. So I m awaiting new pics.
  6. Yeah I requested another. Noob is supposably releasing a new batch in 5 to 10 days. Looks like ill be waiting even longer! It really sucks because I need this watch in my life. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I wrote back stating the pearl is obviously off. Your right pcardoza the pearl catches the eye even before the dial. I would go mad wearing this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. PIC HEAVY!!!! Fellas, these are some of the QC pics I received from Tony Chen. I am new so not sure exactly what to look for but it looks like the crown isnt seating correctly and also the pearl isnt centered. Is it just me?
  9. Yeah Im noticing that. Im also seeing mixed reviews. Wish I knew someone locally here in Houston I could count on. Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. No, but I have read many good things about Tony Chen in different blogs as well as here. He is with noobwatch.com and although not a TD now I think his old site hontwatch was. I will let you guys know how it goes and perhaps he can make the TD list. The more the merrier. I also e-mailed him that if he did right I will help him out by giving him props. In this game it only takes one bad experience to ruin you and so far thats all i found is one bad experience so I am guessing he is reputable. IMO
  11. I ordered it thinking he was the TD TC, I am awaiting my QC pics as we speak. I found out he wasn't the real deal after I sent my money in. I will wait it out and hope for the best. I will post the pics QC pics here and hope for the best. If I don't like it I will not accept it. Hopefully I can get my money back. Live and learn...
  12. Yes, I ordered it from Tony Chen. I just know the sa3135 will crap out on me and even if it doesn't I plan on changing out the movement in time. It would be nice to know for sure that everything fits. I know the oem stem tube and crown will fit the Yuki and my plans are to fit the Yuki with gen crown stem and hands and have it serviced and installed all at the same time so I just want to make sure my birds are lined up and I am progressing in the right direction. So much information on the internets but some seems dated and I know there has been recent changes. Any and all information is appreciated. THX
  13. I am very new to the rep watch game but I have ordered my first watch from TC. It is a NOOB V6S SA3135 movement DSSD Blue-Dial. I know that the movement is not the greatest but I plan on getting it serviced right away and seeing how long it last. When or if it craps out on me I wanted to go with a Yuki. In the meantime, I will be combing the internets for gen hands and other parts to add to the beauty and create my own lovely franken. Is my thinking correct? Can I put a Yuki in this watch case? What parts should I be looking for when I make this swap? Is the tube and crown from a gen gonna fit the Yuki and the SA3135 or just the Yuki? Sorry for all the questions but all the information I found seems dated. Thanks in advance.
