The Watch Thread - Part 12

[Pagani_Z0nda]

not going for the original tudor strap with the tudor deployant clasp? yeah, i know the distressed leather look is only that, feels more like printed on and leather also not thick & beefy. but need to get that in order to also get the tudor deployant clasp, right?

Black bay only come with nato strap. I prefer leather and yes those distressed look.

 

[Pagani_Z0nda]

Very very unlikely.
They can tok the tiongs, for what sell RRP.

Tiongs also no gong gong hor... they also ask for disc de. Those can afford one, go europe and sweep

 

[gaoxing84]

I see. So you everything DIY right? Including re-inserting the bezel?

Yeap. All diy.

The real rich don't ask for discount.
Asking means throw face.
They sweep everywhere.

chuan watches stock are all technically pre-owned pieces since they're not the AD, correct? so they've to give a discount?

comfortable = can accept so long as it comes with warranty?

how do you feel about watch brands that insist that watch warranty only follows the FIRST owner (and not the watch) ie. they will not honour valid warranty is your name is not on that warranty card/booklet/paper or if you can't produced the purchase receipt?

Thought I replied but didn't go through lol. I think Chuan Watch has both pre owned and brand new. I'm just wondering though, new from Chuan is cheaper by quite a bit. Is there an advantage going to THG instead of Chuan in that case?

I'm eyeing the Portuguese white face blue hands one haha. Forgot the model number.

Got it. Thanks man.

Any new hoots to share?!

 

[AyuReady]

Not yet la, if have will share haha now wearing my iron man g shock in Perth see kangeroo

Think what TT meant was even the brand new piece in chuan watch had been purchased once from an overseas AD with dated warranty and probably a buyer name. While watch might be unused, it is technically second hand in terms of ownership.

Just technical issues, it is something I can look past for additional savings

Hehe

your s/steel bracelet version comes with a 2nd nato.

you forgot about the distressed leather look strap version (that also comes with a 2nd nato)

i'm referring that that original distressed leather look strap that comes with tudor deployant clasp.

Hehe

are you aware of any brand that insist on restricting warranty service during the valid warranty period to only the (1st) owner named on the warranty records?

because if so, it'll have implications for subsequent owners.

Don't mind my 20mm strap but... strap switching is indeed poisonous...

 

[mpcdude]

Oh yes @Gx84, when you went to bleach the insert did you remove the glue? Or you just put the insert together with the glue into the bleach?

 

[gaoxing84]

still think this is probably the only Seiko (or diver, apart from GS) you will ever need.
bracelet clasp need more work. anyone know a alternative to the clasp? don't like how the microadjustment work and i can't afford isofrane or crafter blue rubber. LOL
