If possible make sure to remind them to maintain quality of the watches.

Why? What can happen? Does HMT have this bad rep of not maintaining the quality on their watches?

Is it possible to order one watch now?
OP please confirm. If so, send across the bank details in PM will do the transfer first thing tomorrow.
Also can you please confirm the color of the strap with the watches.

Sir, Last updated itself was that it will take few more weeks. We have to wait for few weeks

All's good if the end result is worth it. I don't mind the wait !

A few people who received the Pilot in the first batch of the WUS GO had some complaints. The paint on the dial was flaky / the glue was improperly applied / dust particles were noticed in the dial, etc..

They will have to be quality inspected before shipping. The WUS, SPOC has done that. Some crystals were cracked, and the units were returned. Flakiness and minute dust particles are common...!

Someone put this up on WUS.

You all should enjoy it....! I did..!

Until then we should hunt for straps.
I found this site. They look good but are damn expensive.

My name is on the google doc list, but I haven't paid. Unfortunately I haven't been able to log on to TE in ages. Is it possible to pay now? If yes, please send me the details, will transfer ASAP. Sorry for the trouble it might have caused you.

A GO for straps would be awesome. I'm interested in brown leather straps, they'll look classy on this watch.
Something like this:

Nice find. Now only if we could find someone who sells these.

^ That's an insane price for a watch that's usually sold for Rs.700

 

[Roxtin]

Yeah HMT has jacked prices for all their watches. Seems they are getting active now [DOUBLEPOST=1380895768][/DOUBLEPOST]http://www.hmtwatches.in/872/product-details/pilot.html

That price is perfectly justified... it's meant for international orders. I was just trying to show that the black dial pilots are readily available in the market.

 

[Roxtin]

Even in India it is being sold at same price. HMT showroom gives you 10% discount on Janta/Pilot max.
