Happy to hear that, enjoy!Jist9f3g8 130
Fits fine.Jist9f3g8 130
Got the watch today, Seller, looks good, thank you.Jist9f3g8 130
I see some other posts that say this watch came with 11 total links, so may (hopefully) will be all good.Jist9f3g8 130
FYI, it appears there are only 11 links in the pictures. I believe this ref number watch originally comes with 13 links and no statement in this ad said it was not with a full set of links. So I bought it. Anytime I see an ad for a pre-owned watch without all the links, it is disclosed. We'll have to have Bennisson determine the size and if any links are missing. If they are and it won't fit a min 7.5" wrist then I cannot wear it or buy it. We'll see what they say when they get it. thanksJist9f3g8 130
Ok. I’ll just need the bracelet to make sure and fit at least 7.5” wrist. No problem on the other info. Thank you.Mite9g8e7 (The Seller)55
We do not know who did the PVD work, we bought the watch with the PVD already applied. We have not serviced the watch but the watch is running well and does not currently need a service. The package has already been packed and picked up by FedEx so we are not able to check the exact size of the bracelet.Jist9f3g8 130
Please lmk on below, especially the links. Thanks.Jist9f3g8 130
Also it looks like all links are there but can you please confirm? I have a 7.5” wrist and want to make sure it’ll fit. ThxJist9f3g8 130
Thanks for the answers. Good to go. For the future for my reference if I need to do any touch up can you please tell me who did the PVD work? Also, have you done a service on it and when (or know when the last one was done) and is it waterproofed properly after the pvd work/still? Thank you.Jist9f3g8 130
I’ll send you the offerMite9g8e7 (The Seller)55
