While I was hesitant at first ordering this from an Amazon affiliate because of the lack of a warranty, I am now glad I did.  It sat in my cart through several price changes and when it went below $500, I figured I could get it fixed myself for the money I saved.  Locally, I could have purchased it for $100 off the retail of $1050. and gotten the factory warranty but half off was too good to pass up.  It is a great watch for me as it's not too expensive but still very nice looking for nearly any occasion.  It hasn't missed a beat except that is stops if sitting more than a couple days.  I only have one other mechanical watch because of just that issue.  So far though, I wear it nearly every day so not so big of a deal to me yet.  As for Dexclusive, it was packaged nicely and was for sure brand new.  I would do business with them again.
