Very beautiful watch.
This is the first watch I have ever purchased so I am still trying to learn all the ins and outs of watch buying. My co-worker is an experienced high end watch buyer and he offered to go with me to the store when they inform me they have a replacement in. He knows what to say and how forceful to be. I am far too nice, especially when the sales person is nice to me.

They let me hold onto the watch but I was told by my co-worker it's best to let them hold onto it so they can't claim I wore it and damaged it. So I gave it back to them today to hold onto until they get a replacement.

I had a chance to look at all of their Bremonts in stock and they all had blemishes of some sort. I don't get why they all have blemishes. At Tourneau, all their sales are final and cannot be returned, I doubt they would give me my money back.
