I've used a lot of dealers for my watches lately, and let me tell you Lucy is THE BEST.
So to start things off I originally ordered the V1 version of the 441, but they recently came out with the V2 and switching to that was no issue! Props to Lucy on that. Lucy was also able to source the ceramic bracelet for me which is awesome. No Leather for me on this one!
It took about 2 weeks for Lucy to get the watch as the first batch of V2 sold out very fast. Again, not Lucy's fault so no harm done. Once she received the watch she immediately started testing it. I don't think many TDs do this. In her testing she noticed that the date change was sticking. So...she sent the watch back to get fixed. This is my favorite part about Lucy. She thoroughly tests your watch before even sending QC pics. So after about another four to five days she got the second watch and again tested for a couple days.
All went well and she ultimately sent QC photos and I approved.
Even though the process was long, hint hint to you noobs expecting this hobby to be super fast, it was a great experience. I received the watch relatively fast via EMS last Thrursday and I haven't taken it off since.
All the functions work great. 12 hour GMT, independently moving hour hand, power reserve wheel that doesn't spin free, etc. So far it keeps great time. Not sure on power reserve as I haven't stopped wearing it.
On to the pictures!! I didn't show the lugs as I already F***** one of the screw heads up. I need correctly sized screwdrivers. Embarrassing! Still works fine and isn't too bad.
Props to @truetime168 !! Lucy is now my go to dealer for sure!
