Nebakanezzar Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 got my PVD 195 from david today. initial once over, it looks really good. I did notice there are a few nicks in the finish....but very small, an mostly on the edges....I will try and post some pics tonight after work and let you guys decide if they are big enough to be an issue... But is a very sweet watch! *EDIT* Upon closer inspection, watch is quite awsome. Really good AR on the crystal. the nicks in the finish dont even show up in the photo's, so no biggie. Lume on the hands is killer, but the dial will defenitly need a re-lume job. another observation, the second hand does not sweep as smoothly as my 7753 196. Strap looks pretty decent, was actualy barley able to get it on the first notch for some wrist shots...Custome strap was a no show today Ok, here are the pics!

Willith Posted May 19, 2006 Report Share Posted May 19, 2006 Nice to see you got your watch and it's working well. I received my 202a a few days ago, but as they say "if you don't have anything nice to say....". So, until he and i work this all out I'll wait to post my review.

But for what it is worth, David seems like a stand up guy, so I am sure he will take care of you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thealphabeta Posted May 20, 2006 Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 I read the weekend wristcheck first and then saw this thread. I happened to think in the WE wrist check how lovely it was and was going to PM to find out where it was from, it does look lovely my friend!

Hi Willith, One thing I have to say about Davidsen, He is a man of his word. I know he had quite a few problems with the first batches of PVD watches. This is a big learning curve for him and everone is lambastering him. Davidsen has brought many items to these forums which we could not get otherwise. Give him time Willith, I will guarantee he will satisfy you or refund your money if necessary... Be Patient! I know we all want answers right away. I know is working on all the issues he has with his watches at this time. Just my opinion! mikellem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion! mikellem I agree, he is working with me and a few others I have had contact with to fix the issues. It just concerns me that some of the issues I have should have been caught before the watch was shipped. Now, I get to test my watch smith skills to see if I can fix this one up. He is sending me parts and I'm sending parts back to him, but what a pain. Once I get it all fixed up, I'll post some pictures and I have a special strap someone sent to me that I will have on display too (a little teaser, no it's not the one I ordered from Veni).

Nebakanezzar Posted May 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2006 I just wanted to note the awsome service by David. I gotta say David is Da Bomb! I guess he saw this post, he PM'd me that he has made new casebacks that fix the "SecialEdition" and wanted my adress so he could mail me a free (yes I did say Free!) replacment!
