Well I'm batting 500 with Peter the inspector, as No. 461/800 NG & No. 640/800 Good.

I am now wondering if Peter is at fault, as the reason we've been giving says maybe he is not as bad as we thought? __________________

Peter "inspected" my Speedway DD, which was delivered with the following issues: 1.) At 12 minutes after the hour mark (as measured by the minute hand), the hour hand finally aligned with the selected hour.

2.) The minute hand would advance anywhere from 15 to 30 seconds, which was visible without magnification, when the chronograph was started or stopped.

Confirmation was done by 4x magnification, however.

3.) The same issue, as noted in #2, was observed when the chronograph was reset, although it was not as consistent.

The watch has been returned to ShopNBC for a refund. When the funds are put back into my credit account, I'm going to call them for a return of the shipping costs--both ways. (Its already been done by another WG. __________________

My silvertone (366/800) was inspected by Peter and everything appears to be working properly, at least so far. However, I should note that he checked "N/A" in the box next to "Chronograph Function!" Gee, I thought this was a chronograph, so I guess one of us missed something!

As I look at the photograph a little more, doesn't it look like the "Peter" name tag was just PhotoShopped in? Just sayin'.

Yes, this was strictly Satire, that is why the oversized name tag.

Actually, Peter has been around a very long time.

Steve Yup, Peter checked NA on my #70/800 silver-tone "Chronograph Function" as well. So far everything seems to be working perfectly though. Maybe it's best that Peter doesn't know that it's a chronograph!

Thank you for your dedication Peter!

Is it just me or does it look like Invicta just employs teenage girls for their watch makers? That may explain a few thing about craftsmanship. Where are all the old time watch makers who know what they are doing? Just a thought! __________________
