As you said Oliver maybe I forget what I'm waiting for compared to the production capacity and the overall demand of these watches.
I was a bit unfair there.
I took back the 5712 from the safe since friday and I must say this is way above the average finishing in the high-end offer. As I said it is not perfect, but I was to severe for the 2% missing.
However as I mentionned, I bought it, which means of course it wasn't unacceptable so ...
Concerning the 240 "as a base", I quite disagreee as we can't compare automotive industry with what is watchmaking (hopefully). I certainly won't accept such transfers between watches or the same kind of industrial rationalization.
Especially as the 240 base remains nearly unchanged from a 5711 to a QP. In your car industry the base is deeply modified (Lotus and Rover/Toyota engines for instance). I would rather compare the car industry to the Lemania base transfer: a same base in different brands but highly modified.
I find it too easy to modifiy the case and the aesthetics while keeping what is hidden unchanged. +T€.60 for the PC module? hmmm hmmm.
Thanks for you reply Oliver, it was an interesting point of view to concider.
Cheers,
Mark
