On Thursday July 26, 2007 I ordered this watch from Steinhart in Germany.![]() Almost a month later, I received this watch... ![]() I guess it's close. It does have the same size case, crown and hands. Maybe something was lost in the translation? |

Night and day... a SS type A flieger is what you ordered and you got a PVD type B? Course the one they sent you goes for 40 Euros more than the one you ordered... :? Sorry to see you didn't get what was expected, I can imagine the anti-climax upon opening the box. Are you gonna return it? |

Well Chick Congrats are still in order Buddy! If it's any consolation I like the PVD Flieger better.....it is very stealth and tactical imo and like Steve said a more expensive model My 1st experience was not stellar with Steinhart but they corrected any problem I had....does the PVD version have a decorated movement?watch2.gif |

I feel your pain, Chick. You better get them on the blower, do some reaming and expect some quality CS. Please keep us updated. I would hope Steinhart Germany would hook you up properly. Good luck man!! |

I'm going to keep it. If they were in the US I would return it, but I don't want the hassle. Don't get me wrong, I do like the watch, so it really doesn't hurt as much. I guess I will just have to buy another watch. I have already found this Aristo from Gnomon watch. BTW the movement is highly decorated on the Steinhart.![]() Last edited on Mon Aug 20th, 2007 09:12 pm by Chick Hazzard |

Good decision on keeping it and a nice Aristo to boot. Does the movement look like this or more elaborate?![]() |

I still think they need to be made aware of their grievous error and in reality you shouldn't need to buy another flieger... that is unless you really want to... |

Personally they like most manufactures make there watches in batches. You should have been contacted and informed that they were out of that model. At least they sent you an up graded one. Enjoy :) They are having a lot of things going on over there, not an excuse but it is very fluid. |
