praetor Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 (edited) source? I want to buy a case set from him in the future >.< Edited November 10, 2011 by praetor
PeteM Posted November 10, 2011 Report Posted November 10, 2011 You jest? Nico is going to cry over that news!!
lhooq Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Announced via his rep on the other RWG. I'm trying to get confirmation from the horse's mouth...
jmb Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Well, crap! I guess I'll never have a Monte Carlo! :-\
siesta181 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 This is horrid news. Hopefully, my order for a daytona is in before he decides to pull the plug... Sad day indeed. no more affordable vintage daytona builds.
praetor Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 ok so I'm going to buy something right now. he wants to be paid by moneybookers.com hmm. never heard of that till now
woof* Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Well, crap! I guess I'll never have a Monte Carlo! :-\ Yeah! That was in my near future, I've been stalking eBay for weeks pricing donors.
Ephry73 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Geezus! I need to get my 7031 finished! Well, I needed to get it started first. This sucks! # E
lhooq Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 ok so I'm going to buy something right now. he wants to be paid by moneybookers.com hmm. never heard of that till now That's something DSN uses, but I've never tried it. That sucks, since I was planning to buy spares.
slickdick Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 ok so I'm going to buy something right now. he wants to be paid by moneybookers.com hmm. never heard of that till now I have always paid DW through WU, also never had any problems with DW. Offcourse this does not guarantee anything for the future.
krpster Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Sad news indeed. All quality issues aside he has produced some great stuff at good price point. He will be missed.
Ephry73 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 How about a group buy for all of the parts we need? E
Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 How about a group buy for all of the parts we need? E With the low qualety that DW has hade in the last 6monthes i wouldent recomend that. Maybe 80% of the remainings is [censored], you guys can take a chanse but you also could end up getting a huge pile of [censored]!!!
hiker01 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 I won't miss him......all I got were mostly half junk......not unless it was modded by Spin! Bye! 1
Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 I won't miss him......all I got were mostly half junk......not unless it was modded by Spin! Bye! Thats right, spin saved his ass many times! Thats way i hade DW send my watch to spin for a fully service and modification! Spin realy saved me time and head pain!!! Worth every penny!
siesta181 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 DW parts varies as he gets them from several factories. Therein lies the problem when dealing with him directly. If you go through Spinmaster, he ensures that you get the right parts. I know for a fact that Spinny has sent whole shipments back to DW due to QC issues. But that does not take away the fact that DW's pricepoint is much more favorable than others in the vintage rollie scene. I hope this is a temporary vacation as his 7032 MC project introduced me to the vintage world.
Guest zeleni kukuruz Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 I just got a mail from him. His paypal is frozen! Probebly a member that got fedup with somthing.
StormTooper4 Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 Thats a real shame what is the real reason behind the decision
kbh Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 He was probably driven crazy by all the members who bought reps and complained that they weren't 100% like their gen counterparts. I've always felt that I'd end up committing suicide if I ever got into the rep trade on the forums.
Watchmeister Posted November 11, 2011 Report Posted November 11, 2011 My one experience - pay the money and receive nothing. Wouldn't be surprised if someone outed him to Rolex and they are going after him.
