olly593 0 Posted September 19, 2011 Please can someone help, i've bought a IWC Ingenieur from River last week and its arrived today, great watch and service from River and will post pictures in his feedback section later however i have found a problem with it and before i contact River about it i was wondering if anyone could help me. The movement seems with a very smooth sweep in the second hand however when i try and set the date it went from the 16th to the 17th really easily however the movement come's up against resistance when when you try and change it again and i obviously don't want to force it. I have opened the back and can't see anything that is obviously stopping it. Anyone have any suggestions on what it could be ? Do i just leave it a few days and see if it changes on its own ?

houndoggie 58 Posted September 19, 2011 try cycling the date forward by setting the hands forward 24hours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

digger2 0 Posted September 19, 2011 And also never try to set the date when hands/time are near midnight, that can cause the lock, good thing you didn't fordce it that could have damaged the function :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
