Based on our convo, i'm definitely in for 1 this time around Chief. Thanks!

forget it guys, I already got the answer to my question. The Zigmeister posted it in the Knowledge Base section.

Hey Guys,

I just picked up my first PAM with an Asian 6497 in it. Can someone tell me how many times I am supposed to wind the crown? I gave it a bunch of turns last night but it stopped running after about 15 hours. I gave it a few more turns this morning and its running fine again. Am I supposed to wind the crown till it stops? Thanks and sorry about the total newbie question.

Thanks for the response The Zigmeister. I actually wanted to send the watch over to you. If I could go without my PO till January I'll try to set up an appointment with you. Thanks again.

Hey guys, Looking to relume my eta PO and possibly a movement overhaul. I know The Zigmeister is taking some time off, anyone else left?

Well guys, I attempted to change the case on my PO and now I can't get the stem to go all the way back in. It's pretty much stuck at the point where I could adjust the date but I can't get past that. Did I damage the movement or am I not doing something right? Please help!

I am definitely in for one. I'll upgrade my membership. Thanks.

just dont get him confused with me...lol.

Excellent review. Another watch to add to the list

Looks great. Is this a fantasy model? I've never seen this one before.

Just to let you guys know, I have the ETA UPO and it happened to mine also. This problem is definitely not limited to the Asian ones.

has anyone noticed that some of the dealers are no longer advertising the ETA SFSO as "1000m/f Waterproof"?

That's a hard one. They all look good.

Nice watch but the placement of the pearl screams rep. It's almost as if the factories do this [censored] on purpose so they can keep coming out with different generations of the same watch.....fix one issue mess up another.

I apologize for bringing this thread back from the dead. I've been having the same issue with my UPO lately and was wondering if you could explain your fix Andreww? I noticed a post of yours in another thread that states you shortened the crown on it also. Is that correct? Thanks in advance.

Mine arrived a few days ago, however I was away on business. Picked up the watch today and was amazed at the quality. Thank you very much Sash and yodaddy for putting this together.

Try using the search function. Takes a lot less time than posting and waiting for someone to give you an answer.

Sash, thank you very much for keeping us up to date and providing us with every possible way of resolving the issue. I myself have no problem waiting a few more days, since we have waited this long already. I know you will be taking a bigger loss if we choose a refund, so I myself will not be asking for cash back. Hopefully all the watches made it through customs. I will also support you by making future purchases. These are the type of dealers we need around here.

I don't believe the issues with shipping are Sash' fault at all, however Sash shipped my watch only a few days ago. If I wouldn't have been so cheap and try to save a few dollars I could've had my watch weeks ago. I know some of you are used to waiting a month or more to receive your watches but i'm not. I have purchased several reps and have received them in a week or so after payment. Regardless I don't think I will be dealing with another group buy just for the fact that i'm impatient not because it is anyone else' fault.

Im with you on that guys. Definitely not worth waiting over a month now problems with shipping just to save a few dollars. This will also be my last group buy.

Not working for me either guys. I have a feeling we'll get the watches before we'll get any info from the tracking numbers. At least I hope so.

Is anyones tracking number working yet? EMS sucks.

Great news! Thanks Sash

Adorable! Love the dial

Since the bad news was posted on this topic and not in PM, I'll ask my question here. Will the watches and straps for those who paid back when the group buy started expect to have them shipped by this weekend?
