tefunk Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Here's my King group buy Carrera. The stock rubber strap was a terrible fit for my 6.5" wrists so I got a $15 Thorton Watch rubber. Quality is what you'd expect for $15 but it fits like a glove. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Just a curiosity, can you use the TAG Heuer clasp with a leather strap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosk Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 On the SS bracelet, are the pins super tight? I have not been able to remove a single pin yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowlearner Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Thank you and I'll keep this updated. I sent King an e-mail today. How long should I wait for a reply from King? It's been 2 days which may or may not be a long time. Joshua always replies within a few hours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryaku Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 How long should I wait for a reply from King? It's been 2 days which may or may not be a long time. Joshua always replies within a few hours. A couple of days is a reasonable time for King, as far as i know she usually connects to the internet once a day, not that often. She's not very comfortable with english language and sometimes she prefers not to give extra clarifications but that doesn't mean she won't take care of you. Use a basic language in your communication with her. Which option would you prefer? - watch replacement - new spare dial Suggest her your favourite solution considering that option number 1 entails that you'll have to ship the watch back to China before getting the new one and it takes time.

slowlearner Posted February 20, 2007 Report Share Posted February 20, 2007 Thank you and I'll keep this updated. I sent King an e-mail today. Well, one month later and I finally received a new dial. Now I have to find someone to install it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Category 5 Posted February 21, 2007 Report Share Posted February 21, 2007 Well, one month later and I finally received a new dial. Now I have to find someone to install it. Do yourself a favor and get an ETA datewheel while you're at it. No sense in not replacing the only noticable flaw in this watch while the dial is already off! Anyone know where to find the part on ofrei.com? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spooky driver Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 Well, one month later and I finally received a new dial. Now I have to find someone to install it. did you get it sorted yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slowlearner Posted March 9, 2007 Report Share Posted March 9, 2007 did you get it sorted yet? No, not yet. I have the replacement dial but haven't had time to find someone to replace it for me. I don't think I can do it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchPete Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 OK here we go: look and feel: finish: rubber strap: deployment strap: dial: very good and sharp, little blur on subdial ring (only with loupe) hands: Date allignment: little bit off Engraving: Engraving rotor: letters U and C bit blurred: Movement: a bit slow, see what happens in a few days Build quality: Overall impression: Advise: MUST HAVE! Very nice watch! Where did you get it? What did you pay for it? How much are the shipping costs to the netherlands? How long does it take for shipping? Is the rubber strap really nice?

gallop2 Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 got one from Josh, my 1st rep ever, looks good for me, i don't have a gen to compare. there's one small piece of fine metal inside the watch, moves around and sometimes visible. it looks like a scratch in the glass but for now it's gone, it decided to stick around somewhere hidden.hehehe,. also there are times it will lag 1 to 2 minutes a day. anybody can suggest on how to get this watch running on time?
