Chopard

Disappointed with Chopard quality control...

 

Went down to AD to view the new 8500 Mark III a few days back. Saw a scratch on the minute hand of the watch using the loupe. Its about 2mm across the middle of the dauphine hand. Actually without the loupe the scratch can be seen under the light so I skipped the watch.

Today I went to view the WG and YG Fleurier at another AD. There was a smudge on half of the sub second hand at 6 on the YG watch. Not sure is it fingerprint or oil residue. Also can be seen without loupe. If that watch could get the Fleurier seal and went through so many so called 'tests' and not pick up that smudge wonder what QC the watches without the seal go through. Anyway i'm not nit picking, just feel that they can do better be it a S$7,295 watch or one that is S$19k RRP.
