Too bad I don’t speak German! I’ll have to ask my wife to translate lol.

Me either, but when I opened on the phone it translated the page to english for me, so could work out the watch seems to have an issue, and theres a debate with Andrew about repair etc.

Well I wouldn’t trust a Watchsmith who can’t open a snap on case back…imagine what they would do to the movement:(

Asking again if anyone has received this watch and what their opinion was. I am still waiting to pull the trigger. It’s very tempting considering and the price point as well as the photos of the GEN versus REP that were originally posted in this thread.

Yes, the member has an issue with the movement (chrono defect and then the whole movement was defunctional). But for me even worse is the story with his watchmaker. He couldnt open the case cause it is probably glued ;-) Thats a real no go.

Sounds like they need a new watchmaker for sure.

I’m also hearing reports that there are a few different dials. There is one that has the correct crème color as well as the correct aged lume pips
