millemiglia Posted September 23, 2007 Report Share Posted September 23, 2007 Isn't it TOO cheap for a genuine SWISS ETA 2824? I remember an old post where a lot of fuss was raised because the cartel sellers were misrepresenting this movement as Swiss although it was a chinese replica (a la Valjoux 7750) Your thoughts?

I personally have the white dial one (before Jay did the double ar coating) and I can also confirm that mine contains the 2824 movt too... Fyi, Jay's profit margins are lower than the rest...

I don't mind our dealers get their reasonable profit; but I do mind they're not honest..... I always trust my dealer give me the best deal; I won't going to bargain anymore. All I need: send me what I paid for. Best Regards, Raymond Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tobico Posted October 6, 2007 Report Share Posted October 6, 2007 sounds like there is no reviewon this watch yet.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmt Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 sounds like there is no reviewon this watch yet.... For what it's worth, Joshua says its from a new maker that is very 'immature' and he is not confident of the quality. Also, anyone know if the gen has single, double, or no AR? The one on Joshua's site has no AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 I will post review as soon as I receive this watch. I ordered on 20 September, shipped via AirMail... should have chosen faster shipping. Anyway, I see one member has already got this piece. dtan888. It comes with double AR as advertised.

runne Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 We will just have to wait for the review of the buyers of this watch. It looks stunning, so hope it delivers in quality and reliability as well!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b16a2 Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Don't want to add to the speculation, but it would appear from his pictures that the crystal has double AR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bravoz Posted October 10, 2007 Report Share Posted October 10, 2007 (edited) it is the same version as his VACS010.. the one with the correct cross.. dial, hands, case and bracelets are all the same i think Is it just me or it's missing the ' on top of the GENEVE Edited October 10, 2007 by Bravoz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxse Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 yes it is missing the ' accent mark. A big tell IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmt Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 Josh is just crapping on Jay's products... End of... That's why I said "for what it's worth"... you are most likely correct, sir But, the question remains, what kind of AR is on the gen?

takashi Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 (edited) Well... bad news. Watch got missing in shipping. Silix is sending me a replacement.

jmt Posted October 13, 2007 Report Share Posted October 13, 2007 So are you saying that the gens have NO AR COATING? Just wanting to fully understand... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missing in shipping? Did you get a tracking number on that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takashi Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 I don't know how it goes but I received an email from Silix that a replacement has been sent. This time I got tracking number, registered air mail. AR coating appears very faint (looks like only single sided coated). Gotta go to an AD and check it out again.
