Looking to see (for comparison) wrist shots of the 33mm, and 38mm J12. Any out there? Thanks in advance.

Hey Beau!

Watches came in today, and my mom is in love with her watch. Here's a wrist shot of her with the Chanel and my dad's TAG Heuer Link (42mm) for comparison:

Hope this helps!

Best wishes,

Alex

OMG..thank you, THANK YOU Alex!! Love the pic! LOVE the watch. I'm super excited for mine to come in, and you got yours in about a week? If your mom wants to show that beauty off, and you don't mind taking more pics (close ups), I'd never get tired of viewing them! Thanks again! Glad she loves it. Your dad's watch is very nice as well. Now, what did you get for yourself??

Well, if she ever takes it off I'll be sure to take some more pictures! As for myself, I got an Omega Seamaster from Lay, and I've gotta say, I kinda feel like James Bond all the time haha

Omega..nice!! James Bond huh? So that isn't really YOU in the avatar pic?
Shame, shame!!

Alex, did you say it only took a week for your mom's watch to arrive? I hate waiting...I'm so impatient!!

Haha no, I am afraid I am not actually Daniel Craig. Perhaps I should post a picture of myself in my tux...

Well, I ordered the watch on the 10th, I got the videos of the watches on the 13th, and it was shipped out the 14th. It then arrived today on the 19th, but I understand completely, I am so impatient. I probably check these stupid tracking sites every half hour at most. But, also I ordered two watches, so if one was delayed then both wouldn't ship out yet. SO hopefully you'll get you're watch sooner, but if I had to bet, I'd say yours will probably come the 27th, but that's only if I was a betting man.

Also, the EMS Tracking site (the Chinese shipping company) kinda sucks, so I'd recommend using the Chinese version and then just using google translate to change it to English.

Hope this helps!

Best wishes,

Alex

Very helpful thanks. I too, ordered two watches! Well...I'll try not to think about it much, and just be surprised when it finds my doorstep!

You might say that, but I'd be willing to bet you'll be checking those tracking sites all the time. I got an app for my phone that I can use to check it, and I do about every 15 minutes.

So you think I should change the Avatar to something more original? Well I just might do that! What do you think of this new one?

I found a pic of the 38mm watch. I'm now wishing I had ordered that instead of the 33mm. DaNG!

Beau my better half likes the big J12's. She says they have much more bling for the bang. Don't worry, you can just buy another white ceramic with ceramic bracelet, a black ceramic with ceramic bracelet, a white ceramic with matching leather deploy strap .............. Well you know.

:q5::q5::lol:

I'm ahead of ya on that one! I noticed the black one, a little different style, I'm seriously eyeballing it!!

Does anyone know if the watch can be exchanged, if it is way too small? I guess I could always put it up for sale here, and buy the bigger one? Or maybe..I can try to change it, before it gets shipped out. Lay did say the order would be delayed a day while he waits on extra links for one of the watches I bought. Hmmmmmm...

I would definitely send a message to Lay, see if he could switch for the bigger one.

But admit is it really the size or all the diamonds you like better? :lol:

I'll take size over diamonds any day! That doesn't sound too good!!
I didn't order the one with the diamond bezel, just the diamond markers. Alex, does you mom have a smaller or larger wrist...it looks big on her arm (33mm). I dunno what to do now..so confused!!

My mom has fairly big wrists, she probably makes the watch look much smaller than it really is. If you want, you could always go to an AD to "try on" the different sizes and then buy whichever one you like more! And I think the one with the diamonds on the DIAL are perfect, the diamonds on the bezel are too much bling imo

Alex was talking about some of his "tendencies" and I asked him if this was really the appropriate forum...
