Anyone get the Blackbird from Silix, his price is much lower I've seen anywhere. I know sometimes his watches are "different" from the other dealers. Anyone know if it's the same one?

Thanks guys!

I will check it out... I have 1 watch stuck in customs at the moment.... This makes it even harder for me to get another one.

Just checked... It's the same piece as what other dealers sell.

Since this watch has a pretty specialized movt, is it safe to assume that all the dealers have the same one?

I have found a couple "off label" dealers that have it for even less (enough less that I am almost considering it) even though I am usually a proponent of strictly using forum dealers.

Thoughts on this one anybody?

As I am writing this I can't help but think - will the cost diff offset any potential problems I might have (customs/QC issues/customer service) and I just talked myself out of it!

Guess I will be using a forum dealer after all!

Well, just some useless thoughts I guess....enjoy and discuss.
