I would've seen that across a smoke filled dimly lit pool hall. Garbage

Yeah, I had to stop wearing my reading glasses as the flaws really jump out at ya!

 

Shovel, where can I get a loupe set like that? My wife says I'll finally be able to find the man in the boat, lolll

An electron microscopic inspection is called-for in order to point out any further flaws, such as any infinitesimal mis-alignment of some of the atoms and molecules, in the lattice structure of the paint that is actually on the dial.

Hey LightGeek

 

Nice work, bud

It's no loner a watch with a small flaw, but a flaw with a small watch around it!

Does it still sing to Your heart? If not: "Go buy a Gen".....

-- Ohhh -- but Gen´s suck also! Just look at this:

New 5711 - crooked seconds hand

This is the new 20.000 Euro Gen (crooked seconds hand):

 

 

This below is the 5711 I recently got in a m2m sale here on RWG for, let´s say a fraction of the cost:

 

 

Haha, just saw that even the date matches the gen, just my second hand looks even better:) For the cost I´ll rather take mine and

maybe your Airking is also the best:) (disregarding that biggest flaw ever seen on a rep).

Loupe, and reps do not work well together lol.

Microscopes are even worse!! You see scratches/swirls on dials and hands, dust, missing paint, excess glue, excess lume etc, etc

Yikes. Dude should've asked for QC pics

[LightGeek 25]

Oh damn I though the white Air-King was immune but look at this crap. There's extra ink spilling past the "N" in PRECISION.

Clearly that is photoshopped and you are trying to ruin the reputation of the quality pieces that come out of China. Putting the flaw at the end of precision was your folly sir. Too much coincidence to get past the likes of this forum.

Especially those of us who re-lume & tinker with our (cheaper) watches

Bollocks! The Air-King is no super rep and these pics prove it beyond reasonable doubt (or eyesight).

Poppycock! I have yet to see a gen pic reference of the air-king that does not have the spec of "misplaced" paint. I'll take your photo to the Mall tomorrow and compare. The Brendle's GM is typically helpful w all my rep questions. I'm sure this will get sorted and your faith in Chinese ingenuity and attention to detail will be restored.

After reading this tread I can sincerely conclude that the utter intention is no other than destroying the very high quality chinese manufacturing reputation of the factories our dealers buy from.

 

anyone agree?

Seasons greeting and happy new yearness to you all all, as a newbie always encouraging to see on here it being received as well as it is being dished out

Nuke their ass

[onionbag 1]

This one has too much paint.........strangely in the shape of the letter 'G'

Lol... There's a reason why they cost less than 10% of the gen.
