denisegold Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Good luck with Finepics! I truly believe that some of us will never see the DW's for which we paid. I wonder if we will have all the members who bashed Joe for not replying to pm's and emails to start a thread demanding Mark steps up to the plate.

b16a2 Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 Finepics will return the watches. He has had a hard time of late. I have had a watch with him for 7 months now, so everyone just be patient, a watch is a watch, wear a different one for a while. Health and career come before hobbies/services such as this. Campervan, there are some other modders on this board who do a sterling job. Depending on your country of origin and national customs policies it might be worth considering trying one of them, but they are mainly in the US.

watcher Posted April 26, 2007 Report Share Posted April 26, 2007 ummm....look in the mirror watcher. everyone has something to complain about once in a while. A fair complaint that is yet to be resolved actually. Some members continually moan and I'm getting pretty sick of reading meaningless irritating posts about nothing but rubbish half the time and I'm slowly loosing interest in this particular board as a re others I think!

Some members continually moan and I'm getting pretty sick of reading meaningless irritating posts about nothing but rubbish half the time and I'm slowly loosing interest in this particular board as a re others I think! if you look at the original post, he wasn't moaning or complaining at all -- he was asking if finepics is willing to take on any more work. i actually agree with you about the whole complaining thing....just thought your comment was a little ironic given you have a whole thread where you've been complaining about having issues with getting your iwc 3717. this is not to say that your frustration isn't warranted -- i would be frustrated too if i were going through the same thing. deltatahoe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah....you are damn right about the diminishing hope of receiving the DW from him Just curious how many of us are still waiting for the DW? I'll start with mine ....... 03 pcs of 2892 DW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promotersf Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I hate to say it but I've pretty much lost all faith in Finepics. I'm waiting for my 2892 datewheel also...patiently. I have 7 watches coming back from The Zigmeister in the coming weeks and i'm asking The Zigmeister to just send mine back without the datewheel, it's been too many months. If Mark pops up, outstanding...but a simple note advising everyone that it's delayed or not coming would suffice...and end this. I know many have had great dealings with Mark so I know Finepics does great work. For me he's a no show for now... Come on Mark, come through for everyone!

Campervan Posted April 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 Jeez Guys, new to this forum and very few posts and feel a bit guilty for this can of worms!!!! Looking to get a sapphire replaced on a fiddy (common request from what I can make out!) and am in the UK but willing to risk posting further afield if anyone can help ! Finepics was recommended to me via a friend so I cannot comment on whats going on historically but did search out a thread which said he was unwell, So I was only putting a toe in to test the water Hope I haven't go off on the wrong foot, you all seem an ok bunch Campervan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsv123 Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 I can't speak for finepics current illness, but in his defence in the past he has provided me with excellent service reluming and modding a number of my favourite reps, typically with a 1-2 week turnaround. Which brings me to a problem... I now have a few minor things I would like to get done to a couple of reps, but don't know where to send them. I am also UK based and would like to avoid leaving the EU customs area... This conundrum got me thinking - maybe we need a modding/repair services section of the member trade area, where skilled members can advertise their services to less able members like me! When they are too busy with other things to accept new work, they could pull their ads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be able to do MINOR repairs/mods that I have done trillion times in my watches and feel comfortable of doing for others.. BTW I do not want to take Finepics side because I think his turnaround time for the DWs is reaching Ridicilous timeframes BUT at the moment he is not playing sick to avoid you.. I talked with him on the phone couple of weeks ago and he couldn't even speak... I just wanted to clarify that he is INDEED sick and that's the reason he is lost. Nothing more nothing less.

dadog13 Posted April 27, 2007 Report Share Posted April 27, 2007 (edited) I wonder why members who offer mods are often sick?!!!...I feel bad if I give a promise and not fulfill or give a notice if i don't do it...people on this board take money in advance from people they do not know...the disappear for some time...then some other problems appear...C'MON GUYS! LET'S ACT LIKE ADULT PEOPLE! Finepics could be the best guy in this whole world...and he has done some great job during the years...an info to all the guys that paid can be done, if not by him, by someone close to him...for example an e-mail to all of the members that paid him telling it's gonna be a delay...if they wanna wait ok...if they wanna a refund ok... If you are willing to make a project, be prepared to all the possible things that can happen...even loosing money...it was a great thing from him to offer the DW but don't do something that you are not willing to do like a REAL BUSINESSMAN!

Guest RiverwindMDS Posted May 16, 2007 Report Share Posted May 16, 2007 I know this thread my be irritating but there are people that have a lot of money sent to finepics in watches and in mods, (payed in advance) and it is not right, and it is months that nobody can contact him. Please someone that has his telephone number contact him, because it is important for us to know if we ever will have our watches again. even I would prefer to have my awtches back without mods, but I want to have my watches back. Please someone can help me? It is important, it's a question of money, if he can't mod the watches because he is sick just send back the watches. That's the only thing to do.
