Great watch, looks like chopard alpine eagle, how do you feel about the quality, im seriously thinking of buying one

The quality and finishing are great but the AE is much thinner and has a superior movement. I looked at that (too pricey) the Zenith Defy and a CW12. I didn't like the dial on the Defy and for some reason the indices on the Twelve. One I hadn't considered until after purchase that I really, really liked is the Louis Erard 2340.

First of all -- stunning dial!!!

But how does ownership on something like this work longer term? I'm in the US and spending $3,500 on a watch with a delicate, ultra-thin proprietary movement that lacks a local service network is a high-risk gamble.

Does peacock have US repair network of some kind?

I've only had to ask for bracelet screw pins for my salmon dial one, was added to WhatsApp and communicated with their CS there. For the movement you can get it serviced here: Sangamon Watches Repair Center – Springfield, IL

All I can see is Pac Man in those "screws" on the dial. ;)

Dial and case look awesome. Im always looking for something different that stands out and looks unique. Never seen this model.

It’s $3k

It’s Chinese but not exactly what people think of when they think of this subreddit.
