It was serviced and they buffed everything off of the back of it and gouged one of the lugs on it. :crybaby: :puke:

"Who left this pesky writing on the back? Must be a defect - I'll just buff it out."

The sad thing is that this was Doxa's own repair service.

Holy smokes. I would be on fire. If they screw up the obvious, what else is being trashed.

I like how the OP emailed Doxa, then took it to the forums a few hours later dissappointed to not have had a response yet.

I think they need a bigger grinder.

Did anyone notice that people on the forum there aren't even getting feedback from the Doxa Admins or fellow wis on their questions?

You also have to wonder - if the case comes back in such bad shape, how good could the servicing to the movement and crown have been?

They seem to go the extra mile, so I'd expect it was superb.

Someone suggested that in the WUS thread - a distinct possibility with kind of a Jeff Spicoli "I can fix it" ring to it.
