I never do business with Blake. There was another time one of our friends in RWI bought some parts from him. When I asked him for a part list(6 item) including the same items, he said he can’t help.

This time I have only asked for date & day discs, he is asking proof of genunie watch. He demands pics of the actual watch I have. He said he needs to verify it. Also he pointed out that pics should be from the front and back as well as the inside of the case showing the movement and the inside of the case back cover.

He thinks this is a charity thing or a job interview that needs conduct sheet showing a criminal record .

That is strange...but know what? I guess whats going on here!
He has the date and day disc‘s in stock. So for this it would be no problem, but if you need Hands, Dial etc. I think he has to order it from IWC direct and they want a proof that it is for a gen watch. So this is the reason he wants that from you.

IWC is very strict with parts!

But its bloody expensive^^

True, but its worth it if you really like it (or just buy the gen! but for a 7750, going franken is pretty smart)

thats true, its a lovely watch. And if the movement breaks its an easy swap to an eta. Maybe a bit work on the hands.

Will have an eye open for a gen dial.

Actually I have only asked for discs and he said they are in stock but selling these is another subject and he needs to clarify that I have a genuine watch :) It is ridiculous and rude..

Recently I think he's been having trouble with ordering new IWC parts (what he told me) - so any parts outside of his stock might be harder to get. Better try chrono or ebay

No idea why he would say that to acozcan unless hes got no more discs in stock..

RobSe1 He had one in stock quite some time ago (i remember with 1x 377706 also)

this is something i also can’t understand....don’t know what the problem is, why ge is acting like that. :/
