Dear people in the forum

I was just recently posting in the "new members" area by saying that I intend not to make the first purchase in the next few months - but you know - the urge will just overcome.

The piece: Aqua Terra 8900 150M Master Chronometers 41mm VSF Deep Blue Dial Blue Hand
TD: Hont

Timeline so far:

21.03.2023 / Contacted Hont
21.03.2023 / Hont replied with payment details
21.03.2023 / Payment done

We will see where this road will bring us.

All the best to the rep-fans

Time to give some updates.

Must say that all those who say that Hont is slow to respond, I don't know what they are talking about. Contacting, receiving payment details, payment receiving confirmation and first QC come within the first 12 hours. TD's WhatsApp seems to be active day and night, also during the weekends. Of course, response time could be better but this ain't Amazon or finding a pen-pal.

Coming now to the product. Unfortunately - I have already RL'd 3 times. I feel bad myself, I admit, but I think that RL's have been for a good reason. In all three times the Omega logo has been misaligned and in a way that can not be unseen. Noticed misalignment instantly when opening the photos from phone, even without zooming. If something can be noticed within 3 seconds and without zoom then.. it's a no-go. And every time I have communicated that it has been because of the logo and I will accept for sure once the logo is more-or-less aligned. I am well aware that if I want gen, I will buy gen - so I am not nitpicking and expecting something unreal, though, I would like to think that it is not too much to ask to have a watch where the misalignment of the logo is less than 15°. By the fast response time I am quite sure that he just sent me qc from previous rl.

But so far I can recommend Hont. I appreciate the effort to work with me after 3 QC. I really hope that the next one will be good.

22/03/2023 - Received QC from TD.
22/03/2023 - Replied to TD that RL because of a misaligned logo
23/03/2023 - Received QC.
23/03/2023 - Replied to TD that RL because of a misaligned logo
26/03/2023 - Received QC.
27/03/2023 - Replied to TD that RL because of a misaligned logo

Overall - no confirmed watch yet, though, I am not complaining either. I understand him and his approach and I hope that eventually he will understand me too.

Regards
