docthor Posted April 19, 2013 Report Posted April 19, 2013 This is the first of my order of three watches at TT. It arrived faster than expected...it took only about two weeks from China to Germany...great The watch itself looks pretty nice even though there is one big major flaw...the hands... But this can be "adjusted" pretty easy and will be done sooner or later. But other than that...it's a pretty nice watch...take a look yourself The movement runs stable at +6sec a day and the watch is watertight out of the box (already tested )... 2
Calebt Posted April 20, 2013 Report Posted April 20, 2013 That looks great to me, but not an expert. Whats the matter with the hands?
docthor Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Posted April 20, 2013 ...thanks for your kind words The hands are plain wrong since they should be mounted on a SubC And just today I have been told that the mag is to small...but this is something I don't care about The lume, the overall lock and the feel are pretty good to me, especially for the price
Jkay Posted April 20, 2013 Report Posted April 20, 2013 Is this quite wokky or is it the camera angle
docthor Posted April 20, 2013 Author Report Posted April 20, 2013 You're going to tell what wokky means and I'm going to tell if it is or isn't
alligoat Posted April 22, 2013 Report Posted April 22, 2013 Wokky refers to the inner chapter ring or rehaut as we refer to it, when it slopes in too much and isn't straight up and down like on a gen Rolex. The chapter ring is where rhe 'ROLEX ROLEX ROLEX' engraving is. Your watch does appear to have some wokkiness to it. Wok is the bowl that the Chinese cook in, hence wokky! Wokky is also a good indication on non-gen construction which is probably the case with this case from Trusty- not a bad watch, but WM9 and TC use better cases. I think the date mag is ok and the hands also look fine to me. Minute hand is supposed to be thicker.
Jkay Posted April 23, 2013 Report Posted April 23, 2013 Rep makers design sloped, incorrect inner rings (rehauts) in order to fit small, incorrectly sized dials without having to work too hard.
docthor Posted April 23, 2013 Author Report Posted April 23, 2013 Thanks for the explanation guys <br /><br />Yepp...it seems to be wokky...but that's okay for me.<br />One day I'm going for a TC Yachtmaster but since then this one here is doing its job pretty well
