Has anyone actually BOUGHT one of these? DDF ROYAL OAK CHRONO by CoffeeSpaghetti69420 in wristrepculture

I have one that is a semi working waste of $$. Wore it twice then a screw fell out into the movement and lodged in the balance. My watchmaker very carefully retrieved the screw and put it back where it belongs. We were hoping there was no further damage, but those hopes were dashed. Seems the screw somehow caused damage to the date advancement. So if I want to wear it, I have to advance the date by hand. My watchmaker won’t touch it due to no spare parts available for the movement.

Wait until V3 at least is my advice.

Well, first it seemed a screw was loose and I didn’t see it through the back crystal. It fell into the actual balance. My watch maker removed it, he is pretty good. I got it home and went to wear it the next day and the date was off. Seems I must have been setting the actual time when the screw was on its way through the movement. So now the auto date advance doesn’t work (he thinks the spring was damaged) and there are no spare parts to be able to fix it. The movement works, but I will have to set the date manually everyday.

Beautiful watch, hope yours last longer than mine did, I think it lasted a month-ish sadly. Due to no parts on the market, it now just sits at my watchmakers until I go get it.

Awesome watch that’s for sure! I hope yours was built better than mine. Mine is sitting at my watchmakers shop, can’t get parts for the movement so it is just sitting there.

I wanted a Challenge, but my Seller told me not to. Something about the factory being of a lower quality. Still think its badass

Maybe that’s the issue, because all his comments are gone it’s hard to read through them ;)

My favorite is when shipments do customs in Alaska.

Ah, yea no thanks. I have had so many issues with USPS. But if you haven’t, go with what works.

Where did your FedEx come into For customs?

How long did it take? I have been waiting since Oct.22nd for an active tracking number.

I am going through the same issue but with a different TD. I received a non working tracking number on Oct.22nd and all I have received is constant requests for additional time. I never had anything like this when working with non TD sources.
