elbo Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 Wanting to get a nice White 1680, wondering if they have become available again from MBW? Or if they ever will?
highoeyazmuhudee Posted June 13, 2011 Report Posted June 13, 2011 watches are available in limited quantities while they last, miscellaneous parts including cases are not, but all you really want is the case and possibly the dial if its not a 5513/12. the rest is worthy of trash day, and their assembly needs third part intervention to properly QC it (their movements are horrendous). what they need is someone to clone their cases so theyre not constantly at the mercy of the eccentric mr piek, and no joshs case will not do. the future is uncertain as his brother "his boss" Pichay has passed away (May 2011), i learned of his illness in February which he could only describe in limited english as "broken inside" and the shortage of misc parts began. so who really knows whats going on there or whats going to be happening. mr piek seemed to rely heavily on his brother to order/get/make these watches, im uncertain of his ability to adapt to these changes and step up to continue his brothers MBK legacy. i dont even know if mr piek knows where to order these polex watches from, his brother seemed to be the ring leader.
