Toro' Audemars Piguet 57th Street

[bpdd]

I've slept 3 hours all weekend. Not due to this watch though :facepalm:
I'm battling an episode of diverticulitis. For those that have this, know how painful it can be.

If I had a nice new AP , it would help take the pain away !

Get well soon!

looks like the assemblers used a freaking nail gun and shot those screws in. I bet the factory over drilled their bezel screw thread in the case and when the worker went to screw them it in they have to tighten them more so then norm, therefore given this beauty the look of a titty twister.

Anyone ever thought, that's it's not the bezel's cavities too big, but screws too small??? 0,1mm smaller, and you'll get huge gap.

good point, maybe they screwed up the bezel big time. I have not seen one perfect watch

And that minor gap as small as it seems will cause the screw to twist if it gets over tight. Makes sense, which is a catch 22. Bitch if the screws are loose or bitch cause they are too tight and have twisted excessively.

I believe the new CD Diver will be a killer watch.

Thanks guys for the well wishes.

I haven't cancelled yet. I'm waiting for the final picture. If its no good, I'll surely be out. I definitely want that CF Diver. Hopefully that can turn into a Bumble Bee one day.

Lmfao, yeh could spend the extra and stay at the crown plaza, it's really nice here, think it might be another panda Ss or new V2 ti themes for me

 

[Luthier]

It's way cheaper to order bigger screws, than new bezels.

 

[TESLA760]

Yeah Luthier. But in cases like mine, the bezel is FUBAR

Shark, you can stay at the Days Inn and feed your family at Golden Corral. That way, you can order 4 new AP's. :hehehe:

 

[Luthier]

When this saga started? 6 months ago, approximately? No way ANYONE can make a perfect watch in China in 6 months. NO WAY.

 

[TESLA760]

Luthier , I may be wrong, but the dial and hands are the only two parts of the watch that are new. The rest are standard ROO parts.

 

[Luthier]

Then it's even worse.
Oh, no, pushers too. They're odd shaped, compared to gen.

 

[TESLA760]

Pushers are the same as other Roo's.

 

[Luthier]

Too rounded, compare to gen.

 

[Luthier]

Ok folks. Ignore my bezel issues. Here is a side by side with the GEN. Hopefully you can see the dials and compare for yourself.

See?

I'm cancelling and staying there then

the corral rocks them big fat yeast rolls

Wow what's happening, not a good month for AP geeks.

 

[TESLA760]

Well, after much debate with my inner self, I have requested a refund. Even if the bezel gets fixed and the screws are aligned perfectly ( I doubt that will happen ) , the watch just has way too many issues. I know what they are, and it will bother me to all heck. I'm frankly very disappointed. I was really looking forward to this. Oh well. Someone else will have #11
