Title: Anyone know this store?
Post by: aitormartin on November 22, 2011, 05:43:38 pm
Hello, over a month ago to buy some watches in http://steebar.com, but not yet reached me, I have sent several e-mails and I have responded. So I would like to know if this shop is reliable and that I have placed an order for about 80$.

tnx.

I have not used them, But they have been around for many years. I know you do not speak English, but there is a phone number at the bottom of the page of their website. If you know someone who speaks English, It might be better to call them.

Have you paid already?

otherwise try this German shop: Impoll (http://shop.impoll.de/index.php?iosCid=c32df394b88a65e1874ad81667e2b537). They are pretty fast.

They do not respond to my e-mails and really p!$$$ me off that things are not to go throwing away 80$ ...

Torsten web that are only 2 products, but it seems to me that in the English version has not updated the testing of products.

In Germany the company know that tine http://www.selva.de some very interesting products, especially machinery cuckoo clocks,

Thank you.

 :o selva.de is f*** far to expensive!
Prices for mini clock insets (1 7/16") are more than 2 times higher than at impoll.de.

Also they have a nice range of clocks ("Einsteckwerk" is the strange title for those clock insets in Germany). But those prices are way to high.

Hi Torsten, I finally managed to enter the web using google translator, as it has a escrip that detects the language of the PC and if it is in German shows you the web in English (and the English version does not work well).

Prices are very good, and may soon make them an order.

Apart from jungle you know any other store that sells machinery to make cuckoo clocks?

Thank you.

Check these shops:
Kuckucksuhr.net (http://www.kuckucksuhr.net) in Germany
frankenmuthclock.com (http://frankenmuthclock.com/partscuckoomvmt.htm) in the US

I found it easier to search for a cuckoo clock movement called "Regula 25" or "Regula 34" to get decent shops.
Also are German words for cuckoo clock movements pretty strange: "Kuckucksuhrwerk", "Kuckuckswerk" are most used. You should try them to get German (or should I say European?) shops.
