New member but not new to RWs. Mainly looking for general info, possible repair places, the usual stuff. Plus, I guess a sense of shared interest. I have an authentic Omega Seamaster Pro plus several RWs.

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. :)

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.

Well, one would hardly expect Swiss performance from a $175 watch. I'm just glad I got up off my butt and fixed them.

With an intro like "Hey, y'all " and a name like 191145A1, I am going to guess that you might be from Geooorgia. Whereever, greetings from Tennessee (or Texas depending on the day)!

 

Hope you find this a great place to hang.
