At the to from left:

Error in face up position: 9 seconds a day

Amplitude -(rotation of the balance) a bit low at 269 deg (should be around 300). I'd use a 51deg lift angle rather than 52deg Elcon.

Beat error 0.1ms - quite good

 

The trace below shows one pallet fork is a bit rough (probably no lube) but acceptable for a Chinese version. A service would no doubt help.

 

All of this is only approximate as the back is on the watch and that could be creating an echo and spoiling the reading.

I got my 046 last week. I love the watch, but the screws in the bracelet were a bitch. Not all of them had the same depth. I have a great set of high torque burgeon screwdrivers and the screws that were made correctly came right out with a 1.40. the ones with shallow heads caused some scratching, Well I caused the scratching due to the inferior screws. I managed to get it sized, but the link with the worse scratches, I could not get out. I took 3 out, none of which are scratched., so a jeweler can get that one out for me I'm sure. I could drill it out, but not going to take the chance with this watch. I wouldn't on most watches either. I plan to hae it serviced anyway, so getting that screw out won't be any extra expense

 

I didn't think I liiked the bracelet from the pictures, but it actually looks very nice on the wrist. I already had a leather band picked ready for it, but I'm not going to use it until I get bored with the watch anyway, if i do get bored with it. I'km not sure leather would loook right on this watch anyway. It runs great on the wrist and the Timegraph shows < 5 secnds a day off facing out, and 0-1 laying flat, face up. So far, I'd have to say a smashing succss, in spite of all the problems getting them made.I knew I should have ordered the blue 046!

This is now my daily beater.

It gets it's share of dings and scratches though as I also wear it at work.

I should be more careful with it :(

I received mine today. Truly beautiful and somewhat meaningful, it-s a small part of

Being part of RWG.

 

Like previously posted the screws are painfully hard to remove. I will wait to try and adjusting

The bracelet. All in all very nice. Big thanks to Luth & Sol

 

Amicalement

For those who have a problem with the bracelet screws. Here is a fix that work’t for me.

tread in the tread that this was a problem and when I initially tried it on mine I had the same issue.

 

So I applied some loosnut(penetrating oil) on the ends and work’t the links back an fort for

About a minute let it rest for 1hr and repeated the process. Then I retried the screws and they

Came out like a charm.

 

Hope this helps someone
