pamfcuked Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 Pam 112 noob factory from trevor. Is the qc pics ok? Hope the knowledgable people on the forum share their opinions? My first rep and I'm feeling a little uneasy! Thanks in advacne!
pamfcuked Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Posted June 15, 2012 Thanks man! But is the back of the watch ok? Cause from the pics he put on his web and the qc pics he send , I felt like a part was missing. I'm not sure whats the part called. Its near the O of Offincine.. Hope I'm not reading too much into it as its my first rep.
Member X Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 You mean it might be missing the adjustment screw in the swan neck assembly?
pamfcuked Posted June 15, 2012 Author Report Posted June 15, 2012 I think so? its a long screw like structure. Is this bad?? Thanks in advance.
slask111 Posted June 16, 2012 Report Posted June 16, 2012 Is the cp a little sunken into the cg? Could just be the photo though. Otherwise its a great watch. Love it!
StormTooper4 Posted June 17, 2012 Report Posted June 17, 2012 Correction , you are right My Bad the swan neck regulator doesn't look complete , ask for another one. should look more like this
pamfcuked Posted June 17, 2012 Author Report Posted June 17, 2012 I haven receive the actual watch yet. I will double check when it arrives and take pics again.. I told Trevor but I think he didn't bother. I only realize it after I look at the pics and compared. Sigh. Thanks guys. Hope the watch is ok.
PolonusTM Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 The real problem is that the missing screw can be inside the movement somewhere. You can expect DOA condition, unfortunately. Of course that is nothing a good watchsmith couldn't sort out in few minutes for you Is it Noob version? Looks like it is - too shallow serial number engravings...

Er what if there's no screw in the movement? Will the watch still function properly? Yes its a noob version Polonus!
pamfcuked Posted June 18, 2012 Author Report Posted June 18, 2012 (edited) Anybody read this before? So actually or maybe the swan neck may not be in working condition and just purely for aesthetic purposes? I'm not sure now should I sent it back if it doesn't have the ms screw? but on his web , the watch he displays have the ms screw.. hmm. guys what do you think? http://www.replica-w...84847.html?amp; Edited June 18, 2012 by pamfcuked
PolonusTM Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 Whats DOA? Er what if there's no screw in the movement? Will the watch still function properly? Yes its a noob version Polonus! Dead On Arrival This particular screw on swan neck becomes quite loose, sometimes. I had two watches where I actually had to seal these screws using wife's nail polish to keep them safe. Otherwise they were falling out by themselves. So it is possible the screw got out after the assembly of the watch and will get into gears. The whole swan neck solution on rep movents seems to be more of apparance than actually - regulation. It will work without the screw
StormTooper4 Posted June 18, 2012 Report Posted June 18, 2012 As mentioned the regulator screw could well be floating around inside the movements and cause permanent damage . If its working when it arrives is could still cause problems if it rattles around. Ask for a replacement
pamfcuked Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Posted June 19, 2012 Thanks guys for the advice! I will be getting the watch today , already arrived at my place. Gona check it out when I get home.
pamfcuked Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Posted June 19, 2012 Hope the screw is not in the watch when I check it later!

pamfcuked Posted June 19, 2012 Author Report Posted June 19, 2012 Got the watch guys and true enough , no screw in the swan neck. I don't think its in the watch as there are no weird noises just normal ticks. how should the crown guard feel? Super tight? Im not really sure. I emailed Trevor asking him how he's going to help with this. Sigh my first watch and trouble already.
pamfcuked Posted June 20, 2012 Author Report Posted June 20, 2012 These are the pics , what do you guys think? Should I send it back? I don't think the screw is in the watch. I think its QC error , they didn't even put in the screw..
slask111 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Posted June 22, 2012 It also seems to have the low bar A, i thought the updated 112 had the correct font. Still waiting for my own qc pics from Trevor of the 112 (been a week now from payment). Thnx for posting this.

Still waiting for my own qc pics from Trevor of the 112 (been a week now from payment). Thnx for posting this. Isit suppose to be the same as what he shows on his web? I'm not sure , I thought the one he send me was pretty decent minus the missing screw. I send the watch back to him today. Awaiting a new piece. Trevor told me he's busy with his driving license test and its over today , so I guess he would get your watch and take the QC pics asap! You're welcome!
slask111 Posted June 22, 2012 Report Posted June 22, 2012 Trevors after sales service seems to be top notch. I hope you get a good watch soon. Ah driver license, explains why he has been away. I will look out for the low bar A on my QC pics and report back. Maybe someone can confirm that the new updated 112 should have the correct font? Thnx for the info pamfcked.
pamfcuked Posted June 23, 2012 Author Report Posted June 23, 2012 Hope so. It might take awhile for the new watch to come back to me though. Yes please share about the updated font. Not really sure about it. no worries slask111! Hope you get yours soon!
