  4. Sorry no pics. So the other day I had serviced an asian 2836-2. The numbers were great. speed +5 sec, amplitude 280, beat error 0.0. I installed the rotor assy. To my surprise amplitude dropped to 240. After scratching my head for a bit, i found it. 2 screws hold the rotor assy on the baseplate. One is by the balance bridge. To my surprise the bridge on the rotor assy overlapped the balance bridge, slightly. When I tightened the screw on the rotor bridge, it actually put the slightest amount of pressure on the balance bridge. Never saw it before. I cut the rotor bridge back slightly so it cleared the balance bridge. Installed it, and amplitude back to 280. I cked a couple of other asian rotor assy, same thing. That may slowly develop into a bigger problem and may eventually stop the movement. Just thought I would share.

  5. Hello to everyone! Since my recent pictures on my two tone raised some interest I decided to do a quick review of my only gen omega, a Seamster pre bond automatic! This watch was serviced by swatch group (for a total price that I admit is more or less the value of the watch..) before my father give it to me and is rarely worn so it is almost perfect! The watch is 42mm with the crown and approximately 9mm thick and feels really slim. It sits perfectly on my small wrist. The two tone head is adding vintage and cool looks without being too much invasive since it is limited to the head while the bracelet is all steel. The black matte dial is simple and legible with gold markers that match the two tone case and gold hands. The white dateweel has a clean and vintage font. The marker was supposed to be lumed but the lume is almost totally faded, while the hands lume is really strong with make me think they have been relumed or replaced during last service. The peal lume is weak but present. This model could came with rolex like Mercedes hour hand but mine is with stunning sword like hour and minute hand and a beautiful lollipop second hand. The gold bezel bezel is with black inserit and contrast gold numbers. The gold crown matte with polished happy feet omega logo, this one was replaced as well by swatch group since the previous was stripped. The embedded bracelet is awesome and is the peculiar feature of this model. Quite discussed at the time due to the fact that you cannot put a nato or rubber strap now is appreciated and really merge perfectly with the case. The clasp could came with single or double lock and mine is with double lock with diver extension. Now too the pics and wrist shot! Pics Other pics Last pics [emoji3]

  10. Right, sorry for the delay there. Misiekped had to uh... Fix a movement problem that may or may not have been created by me. Also I'm aware of the scratches on the crown side from hasty sanding - just been too lazy to take it back down and address.
