3 year update on my daily Aquis cal 400-2

Well, it’s not amazing. After roughly 3 years of daily wear, about six weeks ago I woke up to a dead watch. No idea why. Just dead as a door nail. I’m not going to say I babied it, but I also didn’t wear it when I would go mountain biking either. That’s a G-Shock job.

Sent it in to The Watchmaker for a warranty claim, and they’ve had it for a month with no updates aside from some intake pictures. Included.

In the meantime I’m wearing my now 20+ year old Seiko SKX781, which despite being worn really hard prior to the Aquis, has never failed me. 3 years in storage, a good few shakes and it powered right up like I never stopped wearing it.

I’m unsure where this leaves me on how I feel about my Oris, needless to say I’m pretty disappointed.

Just rode [Siren’s Curse] in the last row…

… and the tilt is an extremely effective gimmick. Really really good.

Also a metal soundtrack is highly underrated.

Awesome.

How do we feel about Fender’s current litigation regarding the S-style?

If they successfully shut down the S-Style, you know they are going to come for the T, P and J next.

Do you consider these designs to be a protected work of art, or are they now public domain?

Would this make you reconsider a Fender product at this time?

I know we have a lot of Fender homers in this sub, so I’m curious how you guys feel about it. Thanks!
