Thank you for your kind words. What can I say, you are damned if you do and damned if you don't.
What all those people on WUS don't hear is how I just spent 3 days of my own money flying up to HK to bang my head against the wall when visiting the factories. They also don't see how we have spent more and more money sinking it into this project redoing things when alot of the factories do not admit to their faults. Sure I could have really told them the truth that when we were at seagull they assured us numerous times that the movement was a true GMT. But nevertheless I still feel that I should have ordered a sample of the movement to test out myself. Mind you, even the sample we saw at seagull didn't have the cyclops on the date, and it was only present in production...
All I hear on that forum is how I showed slight frustration in listening to people trying to validate their own decisions for not getting on the pre-order and trying to dissuade others to get off it, ask for a refund or ask for free items. Anyways I do not wish to drag that discussion out because it's just a mud slinging contest with to logic with people who do not care for the watch or brand in the first place.
I think I am very very very fortunate to have a majority of the customers understand the situation and realistically there hasn't been as many who have canceled their order as I had expected.
Even so, rest assured I am not going to back down, and will persevere in what I do. We have started to search for a true GMT movement and will come out with a new version with a revised dial layout. Those still on the pre-order will be offered this as an option (although it will be a slightly longer wait). Otherwise they can add this new watch to their order for only USD150. I will update everyone on this new design once everyone returns from Chinese New Year.
Here's wishing 3T and all it's members Gong Xi Fa Cai!
