Thanks to Sealtt and Vario

[Private Pile]

Sent my Datejust off to Vario for a dial swap on Thursday morning. Got a phone call off Joe on Friday lunchtime to say my watch was done. Received my watch back this morning at 1000.

I just wanted to publicly thank Variomatic for his speedy and professional work.

And thanks to Sealtt who posted pictures of his watch and gave me advice on getting a new dial.

Wow, you moved fast on that, nice!! And very impressive service Vario, if only Rolex could do things 1/10th as efficiently!!

So... any pics?

To be fair, it arrived first day back after a week of playing nurse to my wife after an operation and it made a nice quick job to ease back into it with

Got to say the blue dial does suit it better and the RBL pot agrees

Just thought I'd add my thanks to Joe here too. Popped in to see him today to have new batteries fitted to my wife's entire collection (four watches) and he also took a quick look at one of my autos. Quick, efficient service and a great price

You do realise I got sod all done for the rest of the day after the shock of having a PHer appear on this backwater of an island. They'll be talking about it for years round here

Let it be known that to get to your shop, you drive the Horseshoe Pass, Llanberis Pass, Evo Triangle and numerous other great roads like I did today and they'll be flocking to Holyhead

Thanks again mate, I'll have to send you my Grandad's watch to see if you can get it ticking again.

Thanks again Vario, Fortis received in good order. So thanks again for fixing it FOC!

[Variomatic]

You're welcome, and it was a good reminder for me. Never assume the last guy in there did everything up tight - even if he was the manufacturer!

Another impressed Variomatic customer - Emergency batteries replaced and returned same day - thank-you Joe!!!
