N.B. Yäeger - Any good?

[toohuge]

I was browsing www.chronomaster.co.uk and i stumbled upon these. Does anybody have any thoughts on them? I like the look of most of them and the prices look very attractive. Or am i being ripped off?

Any thoughts/advice would be appreciated.

Don't know much about the brand, but Chronomaster is a pukka bloke, and enjoys a good reputation here from what I can tell. I doubt that he'd be ripping you off, but there is also plenty of choice at this sort of price point.

I have one of the [link]http://www.chronomaster.co.uk/nb_yaeger_charlie.htm[/link]
specifically the N.B. Yäeger Charlie Original - Automatic Chronograph - Leather Strap.

It's a nice watch but I have had problems with mine resulting it visiting a local watch repairers to have one of the small chronograph hands re-attached. The other hand has now fallen off...

Neil (IIRC) at Chronomaster is a nice chap and always happy to answer any questions.

thanks guys, how easy is it to get repaired/serviced etc? I was thinking of using one as a daily wearer, would you advise against this as things tend to fall off etc.

Not difficult to repair and to be honest I may just be unlucky - I've had "problems" with both relatively decent watches that I've brought and yet I'd consider myself "mechanically sympathetic"

Thanks GnuBee, looks like its time to save...
