Hello L, thanks for the reply. Just noticed the bezel area between the "Swiss Made" word is not alighted properly. Seem a little slanted with the alignment with the bottom dial Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seem a little slanted with the alignment with the bottom dial Do you mean the 6 o'clock marker? It could be a little off, see if you could get a better piece. My unsolicited advice is to be realistic about reps and the QC. Perfection is often desired but hard to achieve. I had a watch rejected 3 times because each time they present a watch with the flaw corrected, another different flaw popped up... In the end, it was a matter of which flaw I could live with more.

Yes. The 6 o' Clock marker alignment seem off. Quite obvious if look closely. Shall reject this piece I guess hahaha. Close to perfection but cannot be 100% as these are reps Hahaha, thanks for the advise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Try another piece if it bothers you, and see if you can get a better piece. Remember however that your pic would be much bigger than the actual dial is, so everything is amplified. Even in genuine watch dials, I have seen flaws, some of them rather ridiculous.

ArcAngel Posted November 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Guys something strange four screws on side of case (two each side) three silver /metal color one black on crown side? Pics 2 and 3 Hello Mike. Are you referring to this the side screws that is black? Not sure about it, might be due to the angle being taken or shadow causes that. Have emailed toro for another piece due to the 6'o clock markers alignment is off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted November 28, 2014 Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Yes three silver one black ,what's with that.................. lighting well maybe but I doubt it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcAngel Posted November 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2014 Yes three silver one black ,what's with that.................. lighting well maybe but I doubt it. Hahaha. Have requested another piece from toro and waiting for his reply. Better to be safe and look clearly at the QC photos before approving haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcAngel Posted November 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 29, 2014 No replies for 2 days after requesting for a replacement after I have rejected the first piece upon viewing the QC photos Replies were swift fast when enquiring for payment modes but after payment, there is no reply when asked for replacement 2-3 waiting days should be sufficient for a customer that have already paid for the piece?

Bc1221 Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 That's normal. Esp over the wkd. A noob buying a 7750 rarely ends well. I hope you've done your homework on those. I would have accepted the watch. I think it looks great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Yup normal and yes A7750 can be problematic but at least no seconds at 6 which is an almost guaranteed time bomb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you've done your homework on those. I would have accepted the watch. I think it looks great. Would have accept the piece if the 6o'clock marker is straighter. Wouldn't 100% perfection but least not that obvious Edited November 30, 2014 by ArcAngel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike on a bike Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Seconds at 6 O'clock position on the sub-dial does not work well with the A7750, there are some fixes we think /hope will stand the test of time but as yours at nine not relevant.
