MikeMcNair 0 Posted May 31, 2011 so when this watch arrived it was about 5 min a day fast (or slow, i dont remember) and he asked me to regulate it. aside from regulation, while it was in i took it upon myself to re-brush all finishes as well and polish those that needed it. i also resealed the caseback, fixed the loose crown guard (as it now has a nice positive "click", even thought it has a VERY NICE roller ball clasp) and adjusted the deployant with graphite. basically, she feels perfect, and was set up within 5-7 + - per day, which actually was the BEST i could get out of this movement for some reason. its as if thee is a sweet spot, and that's it ( my 2836 loses 1 sec every 27 days, so i am a little disappointed with the outcome, but honestly, it is actually within reasonable specs to a GEN watch, so we agreed this was good. here are the pre-packaging pix, and the packaged pix. i am pleased with the outcome, and i hope Glenn is as well. polished and cleaned the lug bars....... here is the perfectly refinished case and bracelet. after wearing it for a while, and seeing it when it came in, i NEEEDED to refinish the materials on this turkey......

MikeMcNair 0 Posted May 31, 2011 thanks ted, it really wasn't anything big, but just enough to make her brand new again. oh, and she tells time no, which is ironic for a "watch" these days Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

downfromtheglen 0 Posted May 31, 2011 Mike was awesome through this whole process. He sent daily updates via text message, and even answered some stupid questions. Mike, you've gone above and beyond. It looks great and I can't wait to get it back on my wrist! THANKS!!!!! BTW, the bracelet was $40 on the bay, from bandfever. It has the same brushed finish as the MM case, and IMO, it looks pretty nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
