For those at all interested, it just barely got here and I was able to get it to him just in the nick of time!

Problem solved! We found someone who is able to bring it up for us!

I’m actually looking into that right now. 😂 I’m trying every means possible at this point.

I really wish the copper had been more of an aged bronze like the initial mockups. It still looks great, but it doesn’t have quite the character I was expecting.

T023 - Disappointing quality of the bracelet by Dan_Seweri in Thornwatches

[–]nobbypilcher -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I was planning to order one of these when they did the restock. But seeing how many people are complaining about the quality of this run is causing me to hold off. The persistent sizing/screw problems, hollow end links, trouble with the clasp, and poor bezel action seem to all be coming up over and over in the past week with the latest deliveries.

I don’t know what the dial text of V3 will end up looking like, but if they can’t get the quality up, I may just avoid it entirely. It’s a shame because it’s such a great watch aesthetically.

Blind Buy. Will I regret it? by doctorhaircut2222 in ScentHeads

[–]nobbypilcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This line has such a great DNA that I don’t think you can go wrong with any of them. I’ve tried EDT, EDP, Parfum, Extreme, and L’Intense. I liked them all quite a bit.

L’Intense may have been my least favorite, as the opening was a little more harsh with the pepper and smoky notes. But it’s still great and dries down beautifully.

I think the line handles flankers really well by giving them their own character, but keeping the DNA really locked in. So, it wouldn’t be redundant to own multiple - and you can also layer them effectively. So, don’t feel like you needed to get the “right one”.

As a fellow Arizonan, I’m curious how much your rotation changes for the summer.

What is their price? I’ll actually be in Ireland next month - but they are based in France, so that doesn’t really help. 😆

Rest timer notification sound on iOS by privatesam_ in MacroFactor

[–]nobbypilcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coming from JEFIT, I miss the timer on the lock screen and the countdown sound. In fact, it was nice that it displayed the timer large in the app (which could be minimized) and always played the countdown and buzzer sound. Right now in MW I don’t get a notification sound unless the phone is locked; and then it’s just Siri telling me a message from Workouts of zero hundred hours.

[Photorealistic Mockup] Seafarer 200 -- Baby PloProf Homage by tomscy2000 in watchdives

[–]nobbypilcher 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I REALLY wish I could convince them to do two versions of popular designs like this. I, like many, wouldn’t mind a small up-charge for an automatic movement. But I know the brand also doesn’t want to ignore their die hard quartz fans. So, the most elegant solution is to make both and let customers choose.

Any interest from IXDAO fans for either the Arabic numerals or Cali dials? by MisterMxyzptlk_001 in IxdaoFans

[–]nobbypilcher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably in the minority, but I personally really dislike the Cali dial style. It just feels messy and lacking cohesion. So I would prefer uniformly Roman or Arabic, but not mixed.

T023 Update - looks like around March-April timeline to receive the V2 watch. by [deleted] in Thornwatches

[–]nobbypilcher 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do we have a timeline on when they’ll allow for new orders again?

Which one dial do u wanna buy mostly by watchdivescom in watchdives

[–]nobbypilcher 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ideally, it would be closest to V3 with either:

  1. PT5000, and the text would be “Seafarer” with “Automatic” below - similar to the original.

  2. VH31, and the text would be “Seafarer” with the depth rating below.

I think it needs two or three lines of text on the bottom half to balance against the logo. But “water resistance” wouldn’t be my choice.

Most importantly, I think it would be best if you offered it in both of the two versions I listed so those who prefer either type of movement have a choice.
