Clyde, I think you shouldn't accept sub-par finishing o this watch. You are a stand up guy who realizes I am not attacking you but the brand as it isn't at all what it claims to be and the crappy plating on your watch is proof positive.

You have so many sweet watches... why accept this one that isn't right at all? face4.gif

Pax, Outwardly, the finish is perfect, My complaint is that the bracelet was assembled prior to plating so when links are removed, raw steel can be seen where the links go into each other. To me a cheap shortcut, not in keeping with the hype of hand made quality.

Clyde, sad to read about your problems on the newbie. But just curious:

1) Why is it called the TRex? Because of the t-shaped bridge?

2) What are the watches dimensions? Is it 44mm? 16mm thick?

Looks ok though being black and uncommon.hand6.gif

Wear it in good health, amigo.

There really isn't a problem only a disappointment. These are hyped to be hand made and with great attention to detail. I don't think assembling the bracelet and then plating it is quite in keeping with the promises made.

The packaging however, is some of the best I have ever seen from anyone. This is the first "big" watch I have bought that wasn't falling off it's pillow and bobbing around in the box when I opened it.  The wood box is impressive and designed so the watch stays where it was placed no matter what position the box ends up in. There are also 2 outer boxes. I was very impressed.

Size: 50mm X 15mm thick. I have no idea why it's named the T-Rex, except that the T-Rex is one their collection names.
