..I wish Ben the best,but whenever I hear,"Chinese cases being shipped off to Switzerland for final assembly and inspection",I just don't see that plane taking off from China...price the watch accordingly and I'm there.
Yes...fair enough, and I agree...within the current watch industry (with likely some big names included too), it seems like "it's not a matter of what is true that counts, but a matter of what is perceived to be true that counts", which as we all know is a shame.
It seems like all we can do is our best due diligence...and seek the best advice that we can from those in the know...I appreciate the inputs guys.
Ben seems like a good guy, and like you I wish him the best...I must admit he really has me with a compelling design.
