Post your watches

Re: RE: Post your watches



Thanks for that.
Just ordered one.
 

How well does it work?

I did a watch of mine a few months back, was a bollox to get the pins out.. I ended up using a small hammer and a sewing needle.
 
Works great on pins, they usually come with spare pushers as they can bend if your not spot on. Just line it up, twist the handle and your off. I could lend you mine but at that price I'm sure you'd want your own and the postage would be silly as that link had free postage.
 
It arrived at lunchtime. Pretty amazing considering I ordered it very late on sunday.

Very impressed with the service and the watch. The build quality is amazing.

Almost £70 cheaper than a UK seller and no custom charges.

It would be interesting to see how much Creation pay for these watches, sell them cheaper than anyone else by a considerable amount, ship them halfway across the world and still able to make a profit.

I have to thank (or blame?) OrangeSport for the enabling.
 

The packing note is good too. "Measuring instrument Japan" !!!

They are great Creation Watches, I've my eye on another. They did email and say next time I order to email them first for a discount code making the price even better.

I have mine of today, it's the build quality and the thickness of the case I like.
 
I noticed that as well. Isnt that technically correct? A watch measures time doesn't it?

And you mentioned the only negative - the excellent service makes you want to buy another one. I'm already thinking of the next order.
 
This place is atrocious for the wallet.

I'm skintus mcgintus this month, but when I have some cash a black and orange Japanese monster will be on it's way from Creation watches.

I'm the same already eying up another monster and then I'm really got a hankering for a pair of loakes
 
Perhaps a little out of place next to the fine machines in this thread, but I needed a cheap reliable wristwatch until I can get my Sector repaired. Found the Casio MRW-200



for a giveaway price at ASOS. £12 delivered for a waterproof watch with a decent 3-hand quartz movement! (Use code 20MORE at checkout for 20% off the sale price of £15.)
 
Nothing wrong with a quartz cheapie considering they will probably keep better time than a mechanical worth a hundred times as much and need a lot less maintainance


Love them or hate them the Panerai is an instantly recognisable classic.

On my wist today is my 177
 

I do have a soft spot for (most) Panerais. Am not keen on their California dials though.

It came in the Seiko box with instructions, which I wasn't expecting as some reviews said it came in a generic box.

It's a different box to what I got my orange monster in.

None of their boxes are the same as you would get a European market Seiko in, the instructions are also photocopied on to A4. While that makes it look fake, rest assured they are genuine. I read up on Creation Watches after seeing them mentioned here. There has been cases of Seiko's from Creation being repaired by Seiko under international warrant with out any problems. I even read about one being stuck in French customs who declared it a fake only to be put right by Creation and indeed Seiko. They are what is termed as grey Imports. Watches made for distribution for a different market that the U.K.or European market.

Personally I'd rather save the money and get a cheaper box. My mini monster I got from them is a fantastic watch, well made and a pleasure to wear.
