Just received my SD43 today from Lucy and I am very happy with her service and patience.
I had a lot of questions and she always took the time to relply. The rehaut was a little bit off and she had it adjusted for me by her own watchsmith at no extra charge.
Would buy from her again in the future.

OK ????
So the watchsmith adjusted the position/angle of the dial ... not the rehaut.

So wouldn't that affect the position of the date window relative to the cyclops? Or does the crystal get moved too?

Supposing the rehaut engravings are aligned with the central axis of the case then it shouldn't be a problem if the watchsmith does his job as he should do ... if the cyclops is misaligned after turning the dial in the right position he should pop it off and realign everything well (perfection doesn't exist)

Yeah, i remember all your questions. She says she ordered it as soon as she got the WU payment. I'm not in a hurry, but if it gets past 5 weeks without recieving QC's then I'll probably not use her again - thats just too long when folks who ordered theirs after me are already receiving theirs. Sorry to thread hi jack!

Yours is really a beauty knol, definitely worth waiting for. I am approaching 4 weeks waiting for mine from another TD. I rejected one due to really low datewheel, waiting for a new batch.

Hint. Hint.

Just drop her a quick email. Lucy is the best.

She’ll take good care if you. I had a grandmother who always used to say that it’s good to have something to look forward to. The rep business has always moved at its own pace. With all the new watches and demand for same it seems it is currently moving particularly slow.
