Another Dutchie contacted me for some quick fixes on his watch. This time a cheapie with an incredible bad assambly...

What was wrong?

- Movement was loose

- Rotor came off

- Dust under the glass and on the dial

- Second hand gets stuck every minute at the minute hand

- Crown was bend

Everything fixed now and watchhas been returned to the owner :) Thanks to Monty010 and SSTEEL for getting the stem out, first it didn't work but with some more pressure (I was so scared breaking the lever) it finally came out :)

Indeed, but I have to say it was clearly visible the owner didn't take great care of the watch... I've seen the watch when it came from the dealer, don't know how he did it but the crown was bend like 30 degrees... Wtf! I can't imagine how that happened without the stem being snapped into a hundred pieces, lol :D

Hi joran - can the faux pr hands be tweaked? Want to tweak it to seat on the full-charged-line rather than its current position covering the '7'.
