    I don't know if I'm letting a cat out of the bag, or if Chris would rather keep the EXTRA services he's willing to do a closely guarded secret but...

    I just got a UPS package today full of watches that hadn't worked in years. I sent them to Chris, a week later, POOF!! they're all back, and running like tops, along with a tiny repair kit for my Ball watch.

    If you run a business, and are looking for someone to copy for customer service, this guy is it!!!

    Sent out five busted watches, get back five ticking timepieces. Oh, and BTW, he set them all correctly to MY friggin' time zone. Go figure...

    Chris, if I'm bringing you nuisance business, let me know and I'll delete the post, but somehow I figure it'll stay, as I don't think you believe there is such as thing a nuisance business.

    It's Hardened mineral, you have all your other watches with sapphire crystals, this one doesn't need to be :)

    $299 is a steal on this watch, Not blowing smoke either. I can send it to you to look at if want. Just get the checkbook ready once you see it :)

    Actually I got a Welder from you and believe that is mineral as well. I really like the Laco. Let me ponder, haven't gotten a new time piece in a while.
