  1. With almost every rep ive gotten now ive had a pin thats stuck. Is there any way to get them out? Usually I can get them out eventually but this one is in there for good. Its just a noobmariner but it doesn't feel right and ive tried adjusting the divers extension position.

  2. I contacted josh, he said to manualy wind the watch 30-40 revs. So I did. Seems to be working fine. I Left it home all day set to the right time and when I just got back it was perfect. Then the winding ran out a few minutes later so i wound it again and ill wear it for the rest of the night and see what happens. But if its fine Thanks for everyones help.

    Well so much for that. I was just wearing it for an hour and its slow again. Must be it only happens when i wear it. Time to get a new movement. :)

  3. It's probably time for you to start looking around and find a local watchsmith. Possibly he could regulate your asian 21j movement in your beginmariner. If not, maybe he could replace the movement for you. Judging by your current time, I'd figure you're somewhere in the EU, or thereabouts. You might also check w/ some of the EU members to help you find a watchsmith in your area.

    2 of my cousins own jewelry stores I guess I could take it to them but I would feel kinda funny taking them a rep. And In In New York. I just emailed josh asking if i could get a new movement.

  4. IMHO, If you know how to change the movement then go ahead! If you plan on keeping it for a while, then get it serviced by one of our respected members.

    I would like to get it serviced if its going to ensure my watch is gonna last allot longer. I mean i have like 15 now but only 3 are working properly and this is gonna be taken of the working list if i cant figure this out. It doesn't seem like its that big of a deal changing the movement if you have the right equipment which i kinda wanna buy. I found zigmiester but hes not around untill late august. Who were you refering to by VAC and REX? ill try to contact them about pricing.

  5. If it is just a DG movement, servicing will cost more than a new movement xD. If you plan on keeping it if it is swiss or eta/clone eta, then get it serviced and be done with it. VAC, REX, The Zigmeister all do servicing :)

    Cheers~

    Im not sure what movement it is, im not too knowledgeable about movements yet. Heres my problem, My beginmariner from josh is about a month old. All of the sudden it is terribal at keeping time. At 9:40 i reset it to 9:41 because i noticed it was wrong. Then at 10:03 it was at 9:58 on the nose and it was about 20 seconds in and i always set the minutes on the exact seconds what ever it stops on when im setting it. Is that a typical problem?, should i send it to be serviced, or should i just get a new movement and if so who sells movements that would work in a beginmariner?

  6. Im planning on buying 2 more Submariners or just 2 Rolex's. I just bought a Black SS beginmariner along with a green sub from josh. I really like both of them alot and i had them in 4 days. I will attach a picture of my current collection. So all i need are a few suggestions for the next 2 rolexes i should get. I've been wanting a daytona but my dad has one and the clasp is extremely tight so thats the only reason im avoiding that. I also wouldent mind replacing my bezel missing black TT. But just throw your suggestions out there and im looking at under 200 each, I wanna try EuroTimez also just to see their quality. Thanks

  7. The bezel can easily get clogged up with dirt and grime which would cause the movement of it to change, it is easy to remove and clean the 'teeth' in the bezel construction which should solve your problem, there are a number of guides to help you remove the bezel from a sub. Heres one I just googled: Clicky

    Thanks for the link, i tried to get it off but i couldn't and now i am able to turn the bezel clock wise now before it was only counter clock wise. so i don't think dirt is the problem the spring must be broken. Also how water proof are reps? cause i was on a band trip at busch gardens and got it wet more than ever so just curious.
