My response to this watch:

It feels a bit like a toy watch. I like the colors, and I really like the Nato on it. Princeton colors. Things feel loose in comparison to better watches, and the rotor, in particular, wobbles audibly at times. The reason, however, that I got the watch was the concept, and I do love it. In that regard, it is a poor man's Ressence. I'm very happy. I would not want to pay more than $200 for this watch, but Long Island Watch has it at the right price.

We have a just arrived section and an Orient Section, and you put it in general watch.....LOL .moved.

Post a couple more pics when you have time.

Thanks Don - will be more careful in the future. Thanks again for the referral to Long Island Watch.

The one thing about my particular watch is that it has a noticeable and audible wobbly rotor, causing the watch to rattle when shaken. Is this normal for a watch at this price? An expected quality issue at this price? Should I just accept that the watch rattles, or does it need attention, if not an exchange? Some guidance please.

Sounds like rotor might be loose Max, I would exchange for another.

Hoopy Frood 66 · 10-25-2012, 02:21 AM

Is it rattling or just spinning?

belloq · 10-25-2012, 09:28 AM

Rattling.

belloq · 10-25-2012, 06:11 PM

Replacement coming.

Long Island Watch was awesome in sending me another watch. New one works great. I cannot say enough about how good of an experience I had with this retailer.

Caddymon · 10-27-2012, 11:13 PM

Good to know Max. Its a good looking watch.

Really, its a good looking watch. Very modern and yet it appears to be almost classic in design.

Congrats!
