Rats

Received my black dial yesterday. The watch is huge! It is beautiful but I'm not crazy about the strap, it took me half an hour to figure out how it works. The problemI find with the strap is the two retaining loops; they are hard to slide over the rubber band. I have not had it long enough to see if it keeps good time but overnight it looks like it may have lost one second. So far so good. Since I have never seen a gen I cannot compare, but the finish looks excelent. Small defect I noticed on mine is when you tighten the crown after setting the time and date, the name on the crown is not in line with the watch. I would imagine that on a gen this would be in line.

To add to the above I have sent a p.m. to joshua which follows with his reply.

Good morning Joshua, I have received the chopard watch, it looks beautiful and keeps good time, but I do have a problem with it. The chronograph functions but does not reset to the 12 position, at first it did but after a few uses of the chrono it would reset to the two and one half minute mark, it also lost time with the chrono in use. This morning I used the chrono a number of times and each time it would reset to a different place i.e. 52 mins. 53 mins. 55, 56, 57. What can be done to correct this problem?

hi,

Watch movt is new. Dun run the chronos.. stiop the chronos reset . manual handwind it up . let it run as much as possible. Let the watch movt break in.. then try the chronos..

Running of chronos need a lot of reserve..

Lets monitor this further...

Thanks

joshua

Hey Rats,have not seen you since RWG1 went down...

You are not lost....this forum was started by members of that forum long ago when it was rumored to be going down,that process took alot longer then expected,but RWG1 has been down for going on 10 days and it likely will not be coming back......

Lots of similarities here and many friends from over there,enjoy the forum....

Thanks Dave, at last I see a name I recognize.

I have just ordered the black face from Josh. I had to go back to look at the pictures after seeing a post where the MIGLIA was printed backwards on the crown. Guess what, the picture of the crown for the black face is not available! Interesting.

I was/am a member of RWG, but this RWG seems to be completely different. Did this one relace the other? I don't recognize any of the names on this one, did I manage to get onto the wrong forum?
