I started communicating with Patrick about a DJ 41 Wimbledon on WhatsApp and Telegram;
1- Nov 29, 2024
2- replied on Dec 1
3- communication carried on about the build until Dec 3 and agreed on the build and price of Wimbledon on Dec 4.
Build and price:
“$1650 USD
cf base
gen dial
gen hands
gen dw
gen Crystal
bezel keep cf fluted bezel
but gen smooth bezel be gift for free”
4- I made bank transfer on Dec 7, 2024 for the agreed price.
5- to n Dec 26, received a message from Patrick that the Wimbledon dial has “small issues” and he will look for another Wimbledon dial. I accepted his judgement and OKd.
6- On Jan 23, 2025 I reached out to Patrick to see the status of the build and there had not been any alternative found. Since I was getting anxious I asked him if we have other alternatives and since I liked the Rhodium dial if we can change to Rhodium and he accepted.
7- on Feb 15 I received the first set of pictures for QC from Patrick(please see bellow). I was disappointed about the quality of the pictures and asked him to share better picture which he shared a day later.
8- I approved the watch and it’s going to be shipped hopefully this week.
I would appreciate your comments about the watch based on the photos and vids shared by Patrick.
I’ll share link for the vids.
This is my first experience in having a watch built and I’m looking forward to collaborating with other moderators to build unique pieces.
