VRF Artisans de Genève “Andrea Pirlo Project”

[philwongnz]

Just saw that crazy nice looking Skelton on intime, does anyone know how good it is?
Would definitely buy it

This is what the whole thread is about. If you start from the beginning you will see it seems only one person on this thread has this watch, some questions on the bezel quality, and some potential alignments issues.

Puretime also put some other Artisans de Geneve Subs online. But not so exciting ones, to be honest I wouldn't buy any of them.

And yes, on the blue one they added the wrong lumeshot. The Carbon dial looks somehow nice, but nothing I would buy. And I hope the dirt on the rotor is not on every piece.

I actually really like the blue one. Who the hell will call you out on it in real life?

Has anyone got their watch yet? So apparently mine stopped working after QC and the TD is sourcing me another one but it has been a week now.

I've always thought this was a very interesting and unique timepiece. It's nice to see a factory putting in effort to replicate it but very unfortunate that they can't spell "Artisans" correctly on the caseback.

Fuuuuug! Thanks for saving me from finding that out the hard way. So much effort and the watch back ruins it.

Nobody, if you like it, buy and wear it! I'm just not a big fan of it and I think the dial of the real one looks much better, but if you like the dial of the rep, go for it.

Not a big fan of skeleton to be honest, yet this is kinda appealing to me... Interesting to see how customizable this one is... Would love for some of our more skilled members here to take a deeper look at it in hand

Mate you have absolutely no luck with movements at the moment!

When you say the hard way, you mean by looking? Yeah that always sucks. Lol

Maybe people should recommend this to watch to Tczao.

Indeed. It's sort of like comma usage in a sentence: you might not notice an erroneous usage when you're reading the page for content. It was something I hadn't noticed. I appreciated someone pointing it out. Sharp eyes and sharp wits are both abundant on this site. I'm grateful for both.

Ain't that the truth.

And like that gen air king with double 9s, it just proves sometimes the most obvious details (and mistakes) are toughest to see.

Thank you! My TD went radio silence for the last few days and it has been 2 weeks. I'm getting a bit annoyed. I haven't read any thing with Covid slowing watches down for TDs. Is not March/April.

I think it’s a supply issue with this particular watch. I waited nearly 3 weeks for my QC pics. I don’t think the Chinese holiday the other week helped either. Hang in there. He’s probably gone silent as he has nothing to tell you perhaps

I ask should I change my order, I was more worried it has issue with the movement. It's just odd this TD used to reply to me in minutes (dealt with him for over 10yrs) and now this level of service.

Who's your TD?

And if you've already accepted QC pics (10 days ago or more) it's most likely that your order has been shipped and DHL (or wherever carrier has it) is just sitting on it waiting for an opportunity to toss it on a plane.

There are many things going on here. 1st of all, most shipping occurs via passenger planes. Airliners are still far from running anywhere near a full schedule again so there are many packages that do not get shipped out right away. While it is not as bad as it was in March (I waited a month and 2 months for 2 deliveries in March) it is still far from back to normal. There is a huge back load of shipping out of China every day.

The 2nd problem is that post TDs don't want to attract any attention to packages. That is they don't put "Rolex watch inside". In fact they kind of do the opposite to avoid people looking. With that, they don't declare much of a value so packages here usually get the lowest possible priority for shipping.

Sorry but in the case of reps, the needs of safety and speed and convenience don't align.

Sorry I'm not sure if this is a reply to my post, if so I haven't even received QC yet. Well I had (and I shared already) except my TD said they discovered the watch stopped working after they took the QC as I was asking them for an extra QC. Now it's been two weeks waiting for the 2nd watch.

There is an error in the spelling of “ artisans“ in the back....the “I” is missing !
