Usil Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Why does the low price IWC Big Pilot have a noticable AR coating on it and the other IWC's do not? What determines if a rep will get an AR coating or not? Usil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Economics. The manufacturer has to determine whether he will get additional sales or can charge a higher price for AR coating. If not, they won't do it. It's one more step and one more cost. I do notice that they are increasingly coming on the more expensive reps so perhaps it is becoming evident to the makers and the sellers (who hopefully are requesting it) that it does pay to do it. We are of course talking about our small subset of better reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMK000 Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 I am willing to pay 20 or 30 dollars more for a good AR (well ... any AR ... since the majority of the reps hardly have any) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yt74 Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 Why Sporatic Ar Coating On Reps? Because they are reps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
