Rolex Sub 19 Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 Ever since I found out this website, I bought five watches and received the first two (actually three) watches. All of them Asian movement: 1. Trusty Xmas special Rolex YM The watch arrived perfect. It worked for 5 days and then lost minutes and stopped several times a day - bad movement. 2. WBK Omega GMT The watch arrived perfect. It worked for 7 days and stopped once. It worked for another 3 days and then stopped completely - bad movement Luckily, two great dealers. So Trusty sent me a new one. WBK will fix the watch for me. But for the first three watches I received, two of them dead! Actually, the Omega GMT was so accurate when it worked. My experience on A21j movements is really bad! The Trusty replacement works fine so far. It gains 25 seconds per day and now I managed to regulate it to 10 seconds per day. So far this is the best movement I've received. Another three watches on the way are: TTK Noobmariner (Long wait already) Ruby Asian SOSF Ruby Asian Rolex Lady's datejust I'm again shaking my faith on A21j movements. Thoughts?
King Charles Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 I've only got one and that's the TTK Noob. In the 3 months that I've had it, it has kept good time and feels like it will last for years. So I have only had good experience of this movement. Am I tempting fate?
Richard Tracy Posted March 2, 2008 Report Posted March 2, 2008 I think you are just having a string of bad luck. Having personally having purchased over a hundred, I have had less than 1% of them ever fail.. and those were due to moisture from I think was the sweat of the assembler... Also gave many to my young sons who played sports in them, dropped, banged, beat them to hell.. and besides a few hands falling off, bezels ect,... the vast majority of the movements worked like charms,.. To be frank, I have had more problems with Eta than Asian,....
