Good reading Gumba! I think Mr.Boots makes a very good statement in the Doxa quality thread ....it's not that hard to say Sorry and that we made a mistake...those words would have made all the difference in the world if Doxa and the powers that be would have said it imhohand6.gif

The 'unofficial Doxa forum' thread on the 'official Doxa forum'...   very amusing reading, especially the part about hiring lawyers to pursue the slanderers... good luck on that one...:shock:

Not the Goofballs that bother me rather the numerous "defects/problems" that seem to be coming to light.  Lume on some watches the tube and crown on other.  I guess I expect a statement about warrantee service and QC to be more forceful.

i have just bought a 750t pro . had it for a month ,it really is  a stunning watch ,the whole experiance of buying the watch was fantastic .Every question i asked was answered promptly ,it was great service .The watch arrived within in the week  and is superb .

 i just thought i would share my experiance of the doxa company, i understand its not the most fashionable of opinions but its mine and freely given.

Incredible.  Doxa actually believes that any criticism of their product can be countered by a lawsuit. 

I own two Doxas and think that they are excellent watches.  But given the recent arrogance of Doxa I would have to think long and hard about supporting Doxa by buying one of their watches.

I'll exercise my freedom of choice and right as a consumer to make a statement by denying Doxa my business.  Try and sue me for that Doxa.

It is my fervent hope that Doxa cleans it house and returns to a position of credibility in the horologic community.  Time will tell.
