I purchased this Hamden after a lengthy "non-watch" conversation with staff at Windup/SF. Their dismeanor and friendliness made me closer attention to a piece i might have overlooked because I assumed it was out of my budget. Not only was it within budget we worked together to recreate the civil war inscription on their historic pocket watch on the watch. They agreed it was a wonderful idea and took their time to be as accurate as possible. Happy to say the watch and inscription exceeded my expectations and it arrived just in time for me to wear it with honor during our Juneteenth celebration. Thank you Cpt Sweetster and all those who paved a way for me.
- PPatrickVerified BuyerReviewingMODEL 3: SANDBURGI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars1 week agoExcellent watch with stellar customer service!
Ordered the watch for my son as a graduation gift. I was very interested in the engraving to commemorate the occasion.. I sent in what I wanted and received an unexpected call from Crystal in customer service. She proceeded to blow my mind with info and ideas for what we could do to make it better (What?! Who does that nowadays?!) We talked for a bit and agreed on a plan, she then sent me pictures of three different options. She even found a way to include the motif from the school seal into the design. To top it off, none of this cost any extra! (Once again, who does that?!) Received the watch and it was beautiful. Everything we hoped for and more. I’m just trying to think what I wanted on mine, cause I’m next!!
