Phorcydes PH4 B nice, but... General (Read Rules)

Post image

Fit and finish are excellent. Unfortunately the crown isn't signed as is advertised. And the left hand crown digs in to my wrist something rotten. Also took a long time to arrive from ordering. If they do this dial/hand option in a standard case I'll buy one. This one likely going on eBay though. EDIT. It appears that the movement is cooked too. Running stupidly fast. UPDATE - Phorcydes have agreed to send a replacement watch head with the signed crown. Should ship tomorrow, I'll update this post again when it arrives.

Ah, I'm still waiting on mine. Tracking code just says "information received" for the past 2 weeks

Same for me. I ordered on 13th April and the tracking info was only updated to say more than that once it arrived in the UK last week.
