    My 1938 will arrive soon. I just got the email. Total cost, including croco strap, deployant, engraving and shipping, is 1938 euros. I’m taking that to be a good omen.

    I ordered my 1938Chronograph 27th November, 2011 and it arrived on Wednesday 16th May. I also ordered it with the Milanese bracelet. Stowa asked for my wrist size when I placed the order, so I assumed the bracelet would be altered to the specified size. You can see from the photo below that it is far too big! Also the crown on the watch is not the straight-sided crown with "Stowa" logo (as described on their website), but it is an "onion" crown without logo. This is disappointing after such a long wait for the watch.

    Seriously? You recieved a different crown? I wonder why.

    Very dissappointing indeed. Could you post pics?

    Anyone else here get an onion style crown without the logo? I'm kinda getting worried here.

    The onion crown is either (a) a mistake, or (b) they have run out of stock of standard crown with the logo.

    When I placed the order for this watch, the estimated delivery was "mid-March". I received it on 16th May.

    Probably ran out but if that's the case, the customer should be informed.

    I for one would gladly wait as long as I get the "proper" crown with logo.

    I don't think they shipped my watch yet. I will shoot them an email ASAP to know what kind of crown is on my watch.

    Thanks for the heads-up!
