Seems the people who come aboard the NFW boat are a pretty dedicated group of folks. Those who get the chance to meet George become an avid follower. The products are good, service up to snuff and that personal connection to many that have common ground only adds to the "right feel".
There are some great timepieces to add to my collection yet. Here's my addiction:
I own the viperfish, one of the most unique watches in the industry. Case alone has over 40 parts...awesome watch! Watchgeeks ( the now defunct site, helped design this piece).
I have noting but great respect for George Fox. I had about 14 NFW watches at one time, mostly Auto Pilots with 3 ViperFishes mixed in, most of these were bought directly from George, always good contacts and fast shipping from G. I never had to use his repair side of the business but heard nothing to make me shy away from it if necessary.
I sold this beadblasted Shumate this summer to help fund other purchases but really liked it, especially after blasting the case and bracelet. Have a Vector 42 that I actually dug out the back of my box just last weekend and threw a decent strap on it. Great watch for rough housing with the kids and not having to worry about it.
Haven't talked to George in a while now, wonder what he's got cooking up next.
In the wait for another fine NFW autopilot. This is the first white faced version George has done. The description is a White faced Autopilot with a red seconds hand, heavy lume, brown leather pilot style band, 10 year battery life Miyota quartz movement, and my version will sport the distressed (by hand in house) outer bezel. Looking forward to this one. Pics upon arrival.
Been a long sleepy NFW forum .. wow (2017) ... still enjoying all my NFW watches in rotation .
