Quality of work completely differs from craftsman to craftsman, the engraver who has worked on my alpinist has very crisp attention to detail and is very skilled/experienced for the amount he charges ) ​ **Details of engraver:** Unfortunately I was specifically told only to share details to those who are truly interested and understand that engraving would cost north of a thousand dollars and waitingtime is over a year currently without an existing deposit or relationship, He is in a country with troublematic customs so he takes orders directly from those who can fly to him in southeast asia, unfortunately because there are many who send PMs while flaking due to his unique circumstance, he has asked me to not share his details as he is already a very busy engraver within his country. ​ **Shipping Method:** Covered via FedEx Express 6-8 business days (insured w/ tracking) (flexible on declared value) **Note**: if you are based in Europe I have a service that can bypass customs completely for an additional flat cost. **Payment Method**: PayPal F&F or for G&S invoice (+4.4% Paid by buyer) (also accepting Crypto or wire) **Feedback**: [https://watchcharts.com/repcheck/user/audaciousco?source=reddit&type=feedback](https://watchcharts.com/repcheck/user/audaciousco?source=reddit&type=feedback) **no trades** / feel free to ask any questions *For more rare JDM watches that may come up for sale* [JDM\_Horologist](https://www.instagram.com/jdm_horologist/)
