Maybe different in your geo, but reading through a number of threads / posts, seems to be 1-2 years at the moment.

Great observation. It took like 8-9 tries to get almost correct.

Do you find that the dial looks unbalanced when all the hands just happen to be on the left side?

Random question - anyone know if the straps (stainless, leather, rubber) included in the 3rd gen Overseas 4500v and 7900v are the exact same dimensions? In another words, they are interchangeable one with another?

They might be. I know they're not interchangeable with the thin versions like the perpetual calendars. Probably a call to the manufacturer will answer that

That I'm not sure about as I've not tried them on the 5500v. ( I much preffer then gen 2 chronograph)

If someone could check the braclet code on their 5500v we could then confirm.

Many thanks, appreciate the reply. Mulling over a 4500v purchase, and thinking ahead of keeping those straps unworn until I wear through the set from my 7900v.

Anybody know where this is located: International Limited Warranty card’s QR code. I looked at my regular certificate card with the serial number but I don't see a QR code.

It would be on the certificate of origin and conformity card that is separate from the actual warranty card. (Beige tri-fold paper with the coat de Geneve on it).

I’ve never received this when I purchased my VC from the boutique. Only received the warranty card. What does it look like? Should I be requesting this?

Mine didn't work. Yikes.

Sounds like they've had website issues for some time. The warranty went through, anyway.
