li55ven 0 Posted November 22, 2012 here is another image. Anybody have ideas how to remove this debris? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arism 26 Posted November 22, 2012 Remove the movement and use one of these? Though that might push the debris closer to the bezel. As said earlier, removing the crystal is another option. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted November 22, 2012 I already told you that you will more than likely have to remove the crystal to remove the debris. Best case scenario is to remove movement and see if you can get the debris out with a piece of paper slid between the crystal and ring lock/rehaut. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
li55ven 0 Posted November 22, 2012 The thing that annoys me is that on QC pics there is not this debris. just see.. Is there anything i could do? Like returning the watch to mary? thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arism 26 Posted November 22, 2012 Mary will not accept a return for something so minor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cynikal.Mindset 1 Posted November 22, 2012 she will take it back, clean it and send it back...so it will take the better part of 3 months for this that can be fixed in 20min at home Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markeym3 2 Posted November 22, 2012 I had this problem before ( not from mary) it is no problem as mentioned before to remove the movement and crystal and clean her up ,, ok a bummer you only just got the watch but better than the slow boat too china ... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dendo 93 Posted November 22, 2012 Removing pubic hairs is an easy first mod - just be careful removing the movement the first time you do it - stem release button should be lightly pressed with the largest screwdriver that will do it. Movement screws should not be lost and remember how the go back in and the movement ring's placement. Take a picture as you go. Careful also letting the movement drop gently into your hands. Paper and dust blower should remve the pube for you - Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dendo 93 Posted November 22, 2012 Not crazy about removing the crystal - try to avoid that if you can until you get more practice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bob Reed 0 Posted November 22, 2012 You did not see that in the QC pics because it was someplace else in the watch. In shipping that is where it lodged. As has been stated remove the movement and blow it out. If you are not comfortable about doing that find someone who will do it for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
li55ven 0 Posted November 22, 2012 has anybody a tutorial about how to remove the movement? i also need the tools needed to do it. when i will be doing it , i will be posting pictures. so you guys think i should not try to contact mary? maybe she will exchange the watch for me? thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I doubt it. Besides you want to be without your watch for 2 months or better? Would be faster to send it to one of our Trusted watch smiths. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LightGeek 25 Posted November 22, 2012 Now is a good time to invest in some basic tools... even if only a sticky ball to open the caseback or if you're so inclined -- a sticky wad of duct tape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
li55ven 0 Posted November 22, 2012 Are you guys sure it will take 2 months? i don't understand.it took only 6days to come to UK. if mary exchanges it with a new one,it wont take that long i think do so some genuine rolex get this sort of problem too or is impossible that they get debris? cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Distinct 0 Posted November 22, 2012 do so some genuine rolex get this sort of problem too or is impossible that they get debris? cheers In my entire life here at RWG, I tend to stay away from making comments but in this case... What kind of stupid ass fucking question is that? You are either a troll or you are 7 and you should really not be using your Mom's credit card to buy things on the internet.

Luthier 1 Posted November 22, 2012 Go to shopping mall, ask any watchsmith to do it, it will cost you less than shipping fee to China, and will be done in 10-15 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
