Abagnale 0 Posted January 28, 2013 well, it's beautiful. did you already press the caseback against the case while holding in your hand to check whether the rotor still turns or gets stucked? please let me know... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DC_ 218 Posted January 28, 2013 Let us know why it's like when it arrives, I really want one of these but I'd heard the quality wasn't so good, rotor problems etc, so hopefully they've sorted these because its a simply stunning watch!!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted January 28, 2013 PS: Excellent choice, the classic RO is by far the prettiest and most elegant version!!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goodgood 0 Posted January 28, 2013 Looks great but what is the gooey stuff between the first and second link in the last picture? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drcurry 0 Posted January 28, 2013 hmm it looks like it could be a plastic wrap covering, once I get it Ill do a proper review! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

arcticarcher 0 Posted January 28, 2013 Great choice on the bigger AP logo version... I don't think these are any newer than the other Jumbos though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abagnale 0 Posted January 28, 2013 unfortunately i've got first hand information from a rwi owner that the rotor problem still persists on this newer version. what a fucking shame. so forget about the 20 atm wr ;-) @op: please let us know about this issue, when yours arrive... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drcurry 0 Posted January 28, 2013 trying to search for the rotor problems/issues.. can anyone guide to the thread that talks about it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arcticarcher 0 Posted January 29, 2013 just fyi I've never had any problems with my rotor except for the sticker coming loose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abagnale 0 Posted January 29, 2013 trying to search for the rotor problems/issues.. can anyone guide to the thread that talks about it? just fyi I've never had any problems with my rotor except for the sticker coming loose. the problem is not the rotor itself. in order to achieve a similar thin profile as the gen, the factory had to go to the absolute limit with all the parts. the problem is, that they can't screw the case back tight, otherwise the rotor gets blocked. try to screw it tight, or just press it with your fingers and you will see what i mean... cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arcticarcher 0 Posted January 29, 2013 Just tried it on my small-AP-logo Jumbo, rotor still moves freely. That's with putting pressure on the caseback crystal.... I've also tightened the caseback fully after opening it a while ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
