There have been reports of failures if you over-wind it. Buyer beware.

LOL - Truly epic post!

Been hearing rumors the hands are wearing prematurely. I think I’ll pass unless i can get an extended warranty.

There was a ratchet wheel failure on a few watches that shipped early but they recalled them and all got a re-design....all the subsequent watches got the new wheel also.....there's no issues even with the ones that were recalled....this is not a recalled watch though as those went back to the original customers....I'm sure in the future the values of those might suffer because of a perceived problem but this isn't one of them.....this will surely be a collectible!

Sorry if I seem naive, is the OP seriously trying to flip a Porsche watch (depreciation nightmare) on RL or is this just a bad joke.

I'm selling my gently used one: only 5 wears! I got an allocation for the next one. Just looking to get back MSRP + tax + extended warranty cost + watch protection film cost + watch winder fee.

Mine caught fire when I was on a hot date the other day. Wasn’t pretty. Singed arm hair, could have lost an arm. think we should start a class action suit.

If you had installed Lazy Freddie's protective leather band covers when you took delivery I would have been a buyer.
