Usil Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 I bought an Ultimate PO in March and things were horribly wrong on it. Crown would not screw in, He valve loose and could not be tightened, Pearl was cocked and it just plain stopped when ever it wanted too. Sent it back for repair or replacement and got it back in about 3 weeks. Pearl still cocked and the He valve was in the same condition but it did run and the crown did screw in. The dealer was very apologetic and said he would send me a knew watch for my trouble. So, the second watch arrives and looks and runs great but wait, there was something not quite right about it. Now what could it be? Usil
b16a2 Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 The engraving on the watch on the left is at the wong end of the clasp.
ubiquitous Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 rofl.... QC?? What QC?? BTW... That clasp is a keeper... Likely to become one of those anomaly collector's items...
bigmouth Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 text is printed on the wrong side of the clasp on the left pic...
Usil Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Posted May 20, 2007 b16a2 got it first. I saw this when I was resizing the bracelet. I kept stairing at it and had to had to get my other UPO out to figure what was not right. At first I thought that the bracelet had simply been put on backwards but then I saw the error. Ok: Noob's responce - SOB - this is a piece of crap - I want my money back - this is not right - I can't live with this - it drives me crazy... Seasoned rep guy - Wow - that seems interesting... And ubiquitous got it right - this is a fantastic stroke of luck - it is rare - one of a kind - it is a collector's item - I will make a fortune when I sell this... Usil

Richard Tracy Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 Switch out the clasp, and you have another watch for parts, including an extra movement,.. Good deal !
Usil Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Posted May 20, 2007 Ah - that is the question. Damn reps. Usil
cableguy Posted May 20, 2007 Report Posted May 20, 2007 oh man....i hope when i order my PO it will have the correct engraving lol
