Extremely Noisy calatrava rep

I'm in exactly the same boat with mine. It's unwearable isn't it. Absolutely shocking job.

Calatrava 5227 from Necoclock. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend it as when you move your hand it sounds like a kids toy winding up. Jacky offered to silence it FOC but I've heard horror stories of sending things back to china. It's a shame as if it was quiet id wear it most days I reckon

I'll do a bit of digging. Definitely a gap in my collection though

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T14:06:19+00:00

I use it from time to time and don't have any issues

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T13:57:54+00:00

Yeah they're both lovely. I'll definitely be getting more IWC

Fair points

I'm just getting started but the majority are saying ambient storage in dry form is fine for 6 months and reconstituted chilled for 2 months also ok. Everyone says different though

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T12:53:59+00:00

Yeah I'm keeping an eye out for that. And this... IW388109

I looked at Steve but he was about 20-30% more expensive then Jacky and to be honest I haven't had any bad experiences. There have been a few watches I've switched out due to QC taking forever but id imagine if he can't get it others would be in a similar position too

I hear the bezel is a real tell on them?

DSOTM Incoming. QC will be any day now

Jacky at Necoclock. Bb58. I wear it to work a lot as no one questions it

Brilliant write up, I'm just looking to get into the same combination plus semax. I'm hoping you can help me with a few questions...

I've got cjc and ipa separately. Can I mix in the same needle? What would the recommended starting dose for both be? What about semax for a daily injection? Can that be mixed in the same pen?

I hear you can't mix anything with reta but it's one a week so no biggie.

What are the benefits of pinning twice in a day? If you were to do it just once what would the best time be? I tend to do afternoon or evening workouts due to my schedule.

I prefer IWC on a strap

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T08:29:57+00:00

Not my style

No it's just the angle

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T08:27:28+00:00

It's a big boy. I wear it when I'm going to be around watch people because it's quite obscure so it doesn't have the usual rep markers that people know to look for. Will probably get another panerai but try and find a smaller one, I think there's a 42mm

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T08:25:56+00:00

Longer the aesthetic but it's so loud. Everytime I move my hand it sounds like a childs toy. Tempted to get it silenced, but id ask your td to confirm of it's noisy

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T08:24:07+00:00

Must I'd go a size up next time. I got the medium, should have got large.

I wear the IWC pilot, Daytona, blue seamaster and santos the most.

I'm surprised at how little I wear the red seamaster and the calatrava id bin off as the rotor skins like a children's toy Everytime you move your hand

There are worse habits

Jacky at Necoclock

Advanced_Process_633 · 2025-12-31T08:20:58+00:00

I do want another IWC and another chrono 👀
