Anybody else got this? Just got it today and the watch is beautiful and in almost perfect shape (there's a small mark in the strap I can live with). This said I feel like it is unusually loud for a Swiss auto, the ticking is noticeable, not timex weekender loud but definitely can be heard in a quiet room

Yes I got mine today and I’m returning it because of the noise and the crown action. The crown is wobbly and there is some clicking when setting the time. Not impressed.

I will say this is the first negative experience I’ve had with OWD though out of the 4 watches I’ve bought from them

I got mine today and it is perfect. No issues at all, in function or looks. I will keep an eye on it though.

@AndyS I think you’ll find that AliExpress charges sales tax. For me in SC they charge 6% state + 2% county - So while your $104 sounds good, my landed cost would be $112.42. Buying direct from Addies they collect no sales tax for me so $119.99 minus $12 (10AD) = $107.99 - So $4.43 less. I also find that buying direct from Addies, Heimdaller, WatchDives, SanMartin - they just ship faster vs. ALEX. So check your state/local taxes and direct may be the better option. As always YMMV.

AddiesDive has a new model on sale + another $10 OFF.

Can not tell you how jealous I am, the watch looks amazing but not willing to keep one with issues

Everyone, gentle reminder that if you're adding commentary ( aka "not a deal" or NAD ), we ask that you include a deal as well. This is to keep this thread on topic...deals. The sharing of deals.

Thank you.

Example of my ask:

Sale price is $70
Regular price is $139.99
Condition - Available Defects, similar to blind boxes, are mostly new watches or have only minor defects.

I realize it's not everyone's cup of tea but I ordered one of these leather bund straps for a fixed lug Bertucci watch and it arrived today. It was shipped from Hong Kong and only took 11 days to arrive. I'll post a picture of it with the watch later, but if you have a desire for a rustic bund strap I think you would be pleased with this one at $19 shipped.

Pix with my watch: The strap is 22mm but the watch is 26mm. Close enough. I much prefer this over the 26mm strap it came with.
