 Matt, my opinion was not meant as a personal attack.  It appears as though you took it that way...and I'm sorry you did so, but a subsequent lecture from you on your opinion of the state of our society is unacceptable!

As to personal responsibility, you are preaching to the choir.  I'm an old guy who served his country in the military, during war time, voluntarily.  I did 2 combat tours in Vietnam, one recon and one as an Infantry Company Commander.  I not only had personal responsibility for my men, I was responsible for their very lives.  So do not lecture me about personal responsibility.

And while we're at it, your questioning my personal integrity as to how I handle warranty work does not sit well with me either.

That said, we are talking about a $1000 dollar watch with a 1000M rating...we are not talking about hot coffee, rapes, murders or scratches...we are talking about a freakin' bezel that fell off in a couple of feet of water on a watch owned by a guy who takes immaculate care of his watches. If you want to rant about society, feel free, but if this is the stance of MarcelloC watches as to honoring warranties (BTW...I can't find instructions as to bezels and the care and feeding of glue on my Marcello C warranty), then mine needs to go on the market now and I need to stop recommending them.

You know what, watch manufacturers need to accept some "personal" responsibility too.  If a freakin' bezel falls off of a watch in 3 feet of water, they need to admit that something is wrong and fix it.  I am tired of a society of manufacturers that doesn't accept personal/corporate responsibility for their mistakes...that smacks of Invicta!
