Elysee Pilot, JohnnyP I got mine and sold it the same day. I liked the watch just am a little more ruff some times then I should be. It is Teflon it will scratch the best is done in China believe it or not. I guess due to the cooking industry.![]() Last edited on Fri Jun 30th, 2006 10:10 am by e.avery |

I have bought plenty of watches haven't had any regrets, well beside Inflicta but they were cheap. But this one is the biggest waste of money I've ever done. It's not worth buying.:XJMO!!! e.avery wrote: Elysee Pilot, JohnnyP I got mine and sold it the same day. I liked the watch just am a little more ruff some times then I should be.

I just received this Trias from Ken C. I wasn't too thrilled by it at first but after a couple strap changes, I decided on this combo. I like it well enough now to wear today! Attachment: 2006-06-30 004.JPG (Downloaded 75 times)

Get it replated and move it. It can not cost much just to do the Bezel. Some Co. are taking the easy way out, with some of the finishes and that will bite you in the a**, on a high end watch. The Co. that is doing the plating makes all of the diff.. You are use to Industrial finishes, prof. cooks seldom use Teflon coated pans for that reason. Even Kobold had some flake that is a real issue on a $5000+ watch. Hope you get it worked out.

I learned of this forum after getting this Trias from IW a few days ago. It's my first manual wind and it's pretty fun to wind it every morning. I regulated it (don't know if I did it right:?) so that it now runs +2s/day:). Attachment: DSCF8391.JPG (Downloaded 62 times)

Very nice..............and if you have it running at +2.........you did it right! :) As an arguable point, I have always been told that the term "regulate" as it applies to watches has to do with consistancy on a daily basis. The term "adjust" as it applies to watches has to do with the accuracy of the watch. Therefore, if a watch is not consistant on a daily basis, it must be "regulated" first; then it is "adjusted" for accuracy to get it within the smallest margin of error possible.

Thanks Crowe...........as you know, I generally don't like Chronos much, but this one has a pretty clean looking and very readable dial.....also the alarm subdial, can be used as a GMT or second time zone! I've had this for about 7 years! OldeCrow wrote: Quartz or not thats still a pretty sharp watch Ken!
