After communicating with Mimo, he's ordered a 4000T professional for me. He's extremely nice and I felt very comfortable ordering from him.. His prices are very competitive and he's eager to establish a presence with the DWC community.
Mimo is the man...glad you got from him!

DOXA's reputation around DWC seems to have largely recovered. When I first joined the site they were routinely criticized for lousy customer service and their allegedly exaggerated 'Swiss Made' claims. What changed?

I can’t speak to the “Swiss made” stuff, but the one CS experience I had with them recently was extremely positive. I had to transfer over the shipping and warranty of my Poseidon to the new buyer and they were prompt and accommodating with every inquiry. Super easy to deal with.

YMMV, but based on my one experience they are all good in my book. I know several others have had horror stories, so maybe I just got lucky. :shrug:

I just received email that DOXA is having a 10% off sale on all in-stock Sub models (excluding Project Aware and Mission 31 models) until July 6. Discount code is JUL410.

Some people have choose to forgive Doxa's history of shitty service and deleting post on wus. But not all of us have forgotten. It is still the same people doing the same shit.

It’s similar to Kobold in that the watches are cool, the service sucks, but the desire to like them outweighs the logical response.

My customer service experiences with them have actually been really good :shrug:

I have bought 3 models directly from Doxa, and also had one repaired under warranty.

You may be right Terry :grin: .
All I will add is that there was one occasion that they forgot to do something, and it worked out significantly in my favor. A small error on the billing side of things... :shifty: ahemm.... :whistle:

They just became an AD last month. Supposedly.
Maybe the sites haven't been updated yet but according to DOXA's web site:

The DOXA Sub collection is available only from DOXA watches Ltd. in Bienne Switzerland through this site www.doxawatches.com.

I wonder if Mimo's will only carry the non-sub DOXAs :shrug:
Nimos is definitely a new AD for Doxa. He signed the contract not long ago. I spoke with him.
He is waiting on Watches. He will be competitive
He told me today he still hasn't got any watches in. Doxa of Switzerland is on vaca.

Yeap. Was bugging him every few days to get a 1200 pro for vacation but he never got them and had no eta. Told him I’d stop bugging him :)

They're not an AD.

I've been thinking about picking up a 1200T Pro and figured I'd buy through Mimo's. So I dropped DOXA an email earlier today to confirm the AD status of Mimo's and received this reply:

"No, Mimo’s Jewelry is not an authorized DOXA retailer".

I'm giving Mimo the benefit of the doubt. Not his fault those Euro-types take 4 week vacations in the summer...
