Regardless of the product not just in the watch industry. IWC and Omega that I know of do not honor warranties of anyone but the original buyer. Does that make these companies any less reputable? The only thing I see O7 as doing wrong regarding their warranty is that if the previous poster is accurate they changed their policy mid stream.  Short of that I see nothing wrong in giving the original buyer the one that actually contributed to the companies coffers preferential treatment regarding warranties. Just my opinion.

Then we will agree to disagree as I see you belong to the school of "everybody else is doing it so it must be right", but let's not pretend it's because the manufacturer hasn't made a profit on the product and been paid for the full warranty period.

I belong to the school of "If it's wrong, it's wrong...regardless of who is (and how many are) doing it"!  Like my mother used to say, "Just because everybody else is rioting in the streets doesn't make it right"!
