lolo Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 What is your comments on Davidsenjpn's watches ? His products give me something that feels more or less difference to others dealer, mostly work out vintage style which I couldn't recognize whether it's accuracy made or not. Please advise if you ever purchased any watch from him, how is the quality and accurateness of his products, thanks a lot . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lolo Posted September 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I read some, but I want to get more about the quality exactly on his products...something like if most of the reps are 1:1 making.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valjoux7750 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I have not studied Davidsen's rep's for 1:1 cloning accuracy. IMHO, it is more important to have great customer service, an accurate movement, pressure tested to 50 ATM, and a watch that will not fall apart after 6 months. If anything goes wrong, there are numerous testimonials online that he would repair the watch and turn it around to your satisfaction at minimal or no cost (depending on actual failure mode). These are all attributes of buying from Davidsen that I can vouch for. Also, he can customize your 'Francken creation' or 'tribute/homage' watch for you, i.e. if departing from a "need for a 1:1 gen" philosophy is acceptable to you. For example, I got him to build a homage for me that has genuine decorated Swiss ETA 6497 movement, with face and hands that I specified, and it came out beautifully. His lume out of the box is simply awesome - my sandwich dial implementation lasts a whole night long and is brighter than some gen's that I will not name. BTW, this is the article that introduced me to Davidsen: http://tinyurl.com/davidsen-marina-militare Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking for a good radiomir california and also a pam217 myself. Have contacted Davidsen and hope he's able to build it for me. Would you mind sharing some pics of what you've got from him so far? Cheers! B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hambone Posted October 9, 2011 Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 Davidsen is a quality dealer. My purchases have been highly satisfactory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lolo Posted October 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2011 I just bought a watch from him. Basically, its quality is really good except there are some scretch marks on back cover....it might be a reason of getting discount..
