Hello admin,
I am prepared to pull the trigger on this one, however there are a few discrepancies I would like to clear up beforehand.
1. Please confirm strap color included with the silver dial/gold accent model. ML's site indicates a choice between black and brown, MD shows black 2. Please provide a photo of the deployment clasp that this watch comes with. Neither ML nor MD has any photos. 3. Less importantly, is there a photo available of the box this comes in? 4. Is the warranty transferable? This is not specified on ML's site 5. Please confirm whether or not this is first quality, non-refurbished product.
For anyone wondering, the ML 192 movement is based on a manual wind ETA 6498. ML has decorated this movement and added self winding functionality. Expect maintenance costs of approximately $600.00 every five years (going through ML service centers).
Edit: more information regarding the base movement: https://www.watch-wiki.net/index.php?title=ETA_6498

Vincent.HIt's too late for this drop but, for future ones, it would be nice to see the full text of the warranty. Because this warranty is not transferable, this warranty is not a full warranty, and it would be nice to see what is covered and what isn't.
(In the US, a "Full Warranty" has a legal definition, and one of the legal requirements of a full warranty is that it MUST be transferable. You can't use the term, "Full Warranty", if it's not transferable.)

PinheadThere is really no such thing as warranty that cannot be transferred. Just show up with your watch and the warranty. Maybe the receipt.(most don't require it) And you are set. I have went to a watch repair center for my Omega and asked someone else to do it once. No problem asked if you have the card(signed) with the watch

DeathWatchI don't know where you are but, in the US, warranties are not always transferable -- that's one of the reasons why I wanted to know if the warranty is "Full" or "Limited". In the US, a "Full Warranty" has a specific legal definition, and one of the absolute requirements of a Full Warranty is that it must be transferable. However, manufacturers are free to limit the warranty to the first purchaser; if they do, they cannot call it a "Full Warranty". This is then a Limited Warranty.
