... the engraver's hand slips and he carves up the back of your new $800 watch  :facepalm:



yes, the watch is not "new" in this photo, I was reminded of it when I was fitting a new strap.

At least it happened on the back. Did the guy offer a discount?

It was my (then) better half getting it engraved so I'm not sure of how the aftermath went down, she probably tore him a new one.  :rant:

Thats why I never let anyone else touch my watches for repairs! But in this case, I'm not able to do this so I need help...
You should ask for a new back plate, it's available, and he should pay for a new one, that's really personal peace, and with sentimental value... I would ask for a replace!
