191145A1 0 Posted March 24, 2012 Welcome to RWG Expect to see some of these: Here they are. The Seamaster is wearing a black Banda deployment band in this pic which I'm now using on the subbie, and with summer coming on fast it's time to put the steel back on. The subbie is Asian but is supposed to have an 'Italian' 31J movement. The ladies date has an ETA and so does the pres. I've had problems with all the RWs. The sub is currently working and I'm wearing it now. I have to get the pres crown to stay on - it unscrews from the watch when trying to set. The ladies runs great but doesn't self-wind reliably. But they are beautiful. My wife dropped the ladies and broke the crystal. I sent it off to have it replaced and the watch repaired, and they said it was such a close copy that they had to use a sapphire crystal made for a Rolex. Fine, but it still has to be wound. So that one I think is going somewhere permanently - for a little ride, so to speak. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

191145A1 0 Posted March 25, 2012 Happy day! I fixed the crown on the 'pres'. Hint: Super Glue can be your friend. In this case, a tiny amount on the tip of a pin, placed inside the female stem threads of the crown (definitely using strong light and magnification). All functioning/setting now normal.

191145A1 0 Posted March 25, 2012 Well, one would hardly expect Swiss performance from a $175 watch. I'm just glad I got up off my butt and fixed them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
