Triple Red YM with a twist.!!((Rikki Related))
First the twist-
I purchased my YM about 2 years ago from a forum member. as a complete newb with a little trust I thought it was perfect. Until I posted some close up Pics here at the forum. turns out the bezel was beat to shit.... here's the thread- https://www.rolexforums.com/showthre...95#post3934195 Turns out the forum was right. also later found out the middle part of the bracelet was rubbed out with scotch-bright or whatever then at some point re-shined... and very poorly at that. I then sent the watch off too Rikki and sure enough all said above was true. Rikki changed out the date-wheel then went to work on the Bracelet and bezel. My forum friends. it's not even the same watch.. forget the date-wheel the bracelet and the Bezel don't even look the same. It's stunning. I feel Rikki went above and beyond for me. he listened and assured me he would do the best he can do... a few days later when we spoke he said you'll be shocked. I laughed it off. but he was 100% right. the watch is beautiful now. I am truly speechless.... It's a first year production run so for it's age and past abuse I am over-joyed. to the naked eye it a 10 out of 10. Pictures prolly won't do this justice but here goes- some before- after- |
