  1. That's one way of describing it. You would know if you snapped a main spring in a Unitas. Having a main spring bind as it is too tight is another but as it was explained to me during my training that it is watch makers talk for not sure but I will let the main spring down and if that fixes it I will charge you 30 quid for 3 min work.
  2. But tc are better and the shape and dimensions are better
  3. Can one of the experts who say this is possible here define overwind for me please
  4. The DW difference is because this is powered by a 2892 like the MK XVI rather than the in house in the other ingys so as the MK XVI V2 has a good DW then they are a good way there before they start. To make this even better fit a Swiss 2892 with the rep DW and rep rotor and if they can get the rest right like in the first ingy then you will have a 5k watch for 500!
  5. the only problem would be a structual failure (Of the plane!!) and a sudden depressurization, at which time, worryiong about your watch crystal will be the least of your worries Plus 1
  6. Ref. IW323902: stainless-steel case, black dial, rhodium-plated hands and appliqués, stainless-steel bracelet with folding clasp Ref. IW323904: stainless-steel case, silver-plated dial, rhodium-plated hands and appliqués, stainless-steel bracelet with folding clasp Ref. IW323906: stainless-steel case, silver-plated dial, rose-gold-plated hands and appliqués, stainless-steel bracelet with folding clasp Now there is no reason why this cant be made well the movement is the 2892 and the asians have that, the old ingy sold out so you know that this will sell, you have the DW in the V2 MK XVI, the dial is not complicated it is an ETA DW position, so get on it!!!!!!!!! Hell it is even a sensible size If a maker wants me to review the first then let me know!
  7. TC hands are as good as gen rolex lumi ones in my oppinion
  8. Through my hangover full and tiered eyes I can't see what is wrong there can you give us a hint
  9. Not even a member with a brazilian it seams
  10. It is an interesting situation that maybe needs more investigation I have in the past used rare earth magnets to test anti magnetic protection on reps, and although I have stopped watched with them I have never managed to magnetize one or damage one How long we're the watches under the influence of the magnets?
  11. View from the room. I was hoping for better weather though
  12. Seagull Asian clone a very good reliable movement
  13. The big improvement there is the date wheel but I would like to see the teen numbers The seconds hand is also a very big plus To be honest as long as the watch is running you would never get called out on this watch. But that price they can stick it. On stainless maybe but on leather no way that I just wrong. Dealers take note! There are so many gen vintage watches that are around this price or a little more that have so much more value and chic Just have a look for vintage zeniths and the likes. Real name in house movement good resale prospects.
  14. 1. Remove the case back and the movement find the screw or clip that was holding it in. Refit the pusher (after Lubeing any orings that may be present. 2. Refit movement and dial. Replace case back Repeat step 2 a multitude of times to remove specs of dust you find as soon as you think you have finished
  15. Use the search there is plenty of discussion about it, but yes it is good
  16. It is such a shame that it is the Laurius one that is repped so well, i wonder if we can talk PT into making a donation
  17. As i say Jochen knows what he is doing
  18. Same issue with the weight though as it is the same rotor, i have never had an issue my self as i am fairly active, but i haeard of a couple of people who (one was an IWC gmt 2893-3 varient) where the wearer just did not move enough to wind it. If you have theis problem may i sugest pornography
  19. Do a search it has been discussed to death. but i say 1.2mm
