Unless you're wearing it upside down you're never going to see it. I would ask for a small refund and just keep it. Much less hassle.

IMO just ask for a new caseback. Returning the watch plus CNY a lot of headache.

If you haven't sent that back yet, I'm telling you it would be probably +/- $10 the cost to send it back compared to the cost to buy a complete, new case back. Do NOT send that watch back to China. Reiterate to Sead that you want a new case back, even if you have to pay a little bit.

I wish you could take a REALLY clear picture. If it's something easily fixed (not too deep), i'd refinish the back for you myself.

Any H or N factory 111 caseback will be a direct replacement. It's a 1 minute job that requires nothing more than a ball of wadded up tape. Do not send the watch back. Wear it, and source another case back. Post a WTB in M2M, someone has 10 of them laying in their desk drawer.

^ What he said. Wear it, enjoy it, and get a new caseback at your leisure. Returning it to china will cost you as much as buying a new back, and it could be three months before you see the watch back!

Thanks, sead advised me to return it within eu, which I have done, I'm hoping he can replace from eu stock, so cny shouldn't impact. Watch this space ..

Man. I just read all that only to be totally disappointed with the penultimate post. Nice gesture from air fix though.
