ryaku Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 Hi all, I've just received a marvellous watch Tag Heuer. It's really stunning and i like so much. Unfortunately it has one annoying flaw: date font isn't well centered as you can see in the pic below: Do you replica experts reckon it's an acceptable flaw?Is it common in replicas? I don't make a secret that it bothers me. Firstly i wonder if it's fixable and how easy (and expansive) it is. I thought to take it to a local watchmaker to get serviced and fix that flaw. But being a replica i don't know what to do, i can't go to a Tag heuer official dealer and many watchmakers don't work on replicas or suggest you to take it to the official dealer. What would you do? I think i'll exclude to send it back to our dealer to China, it would take long time and too customs issues. (even though i should seeing that i kindly asked to check the watch twice before shipping). Cheers
bres3000 Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 Personally, if it cost $200 or more, I'd fuss about the date. Less than $199, I wouldn't.

GhostfaceZX Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 What is involved in realigning the date? Is it just the sticker on top of the datewheel that wasn't positioned correctly?

supermanx Posted May 31, 2006 Report Posted May 31, 2006 (edited) If you dont know what your doing the LAST THING you should do is take the watch apart. wait to hear from your dealer (especially if its a dealer recommended here).

You're right infact i said.."i should" I already communicated with the dealer and the flaw regards that model, almost any sample. However i'll make it fix by a watchmaker later on, not immediately.
