Thanks Freddy, I did finally get in touch with the dealer and they told me to keep advancing via pusher. So it went from 2027 back 2020. So I kept advancing to get it to current year. I have the Year, Month, and Day right. The Day of the week is till off. Working on that. Here is the watch https://puretimewatch.io/master-ultra-thin-perpetual-calendar-rg-v9f-1-1-best-edition-cream-dial-on-brown-leather-strap-a868-v2.html The watch movement is described by dealer as: Movement Asian 23J automatic movement decorated to JLC 868 movement, Perpetual Calendar display

Well I thought I followed the instructions carefully by I managed to forward my watch to the year 2024. Is this fixable or do I just live with it. Here is the rep that I mistakenly set. https://puretimewatch.io/master-ultra-thin-perpetual-calendar-rg-v9f-1-1-best-edition-cream-dial-on-brown-leather-strap-a868-v2.html Can I get some advice from you experts out there. Regards, Dan

Sorry. Typo. It is set for 2023

So I purchased a perpetual calendar watch. Thought I was following the directions to set and saw that I advanced year to 2022. Uggh!!! So is that a way to turn back or I just live with it. Regards, Dan

I love the beauty and craftsmanship of the automatics. But unless they are Gen’s it’s hard to keep them running and getting them repaired. I am really starting to build collection with more entry level GEN’s (Tissot, Hamilton, Etc)

I came across this Rolex at a auction site and I would share. Here is the link. https://www.phillips.com/detail/rolex/CH080221/248

I was browsing ebay and saw this post for a ETA 7750 and a Rolex dial assembly. It is obviously fake for that price. Why doesnt the IP Police go after them? https://www.ebay.com/i/153919104808?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-117182-37290-0&mkcid=2&itemid=153919104808&targetid=935431406053&device=c&mktype=pla&googleloc=1015303&poi=&campaignid=10454522093&mkgroupid=104612009740&rlsatarget=aud-412677883135:pla-935431406053&abcId=2146002&merchantid=6296724&gclid=Cj0KCQjwtZH7BRDzARIsAGjbK2agHMjSgEyCKpW-eXhk4EBaBr19W4iR-DVMaVoLcQL2qhAvUN7eNeIaAtOLEALw_wcB

Nice looking watch. Pricey but don’t know the Components. Need a closer view. Is he a TD?

I looked for some threads on the subject but couldn't find any. Anyway, the service would address a couple of areas. First, it allows a try before buy which is a small thing but kind of useful. Secondly, the service would allow you try wear a different watch every 2, 3, or 4 months depending on the plan which I like but maybe others would not. Third, it does allow the subscriber to be able to wear new watches every year as the inventory would be refreshed. Totally agree so that is why this service is attractive. I would disregard the monthly numbers as they are just a guide. But basically if you paid $150 per month that is $1,800 per year. it would take many years to save up to buy a expensive genuine watch. I think you could equate the same concept to leasing\buying a car. You don't want to tie up your money on a sset that will depreciate over time. If you lease you can get a new car every two years. In this model you can get a new watch every 2, 3, or 4 months if you like. Anyway, I appreciate you commenting.

I have the utmost respect for ALL the members of RWG and thought I would ask this question to gain insight and experience and I am thinking of starting\investing in a luxury goods business. Have you every used any of these Rent a Watch sites like D & C Watch company? What was you experience? Would you consider a subscription model for a web site that offered a large inventory of luxury genuine watches for a monthy fee? If it was tiered by cost of watch what would you be willing to pay? This is really hypothetical just to show the concept and not really reflect the cost of the watchers. You could get a different once every 3 - 4 months. Bronze $150 - $200 per month Watches in $5,000 - $8,000 range Silver $300 - $500 per month Watches in $10,000 - $20,000 range Gold $700 - $900 per month Watches greater than $25,000

I am in desperate need of a trusted repairer preferably in US (MD2020 did me in) to overhaul a 7750 of my favorite watch. Bought this beauty from Josh a couple of years ago.

Don't use superglue. You need to use slow curing epoxy. I just did this job 2 weeks ago. 1. First you will need to use a dremel or similar tool to drill and remove old expoy from the bezel hole. Be careful not to apply to much force or you will crack the bezel. I used a loupe to ensure I was precise 2. Mix the epoxy. I used Devcon slow curing 2 ton mix. 3. Use a pin to apply a small amount on the post and on a small amount on the back of pearl. 4. Use the loupe to ensure the pearl is flush to bezel

Sporting and new GMT II from BK...so sweet.

Love the Admirals Cup. How do you like it. Does it get a lot of wrist time.

Awesome!!! Mike does it make sense for you to get to save time. Just let me know how you want to handle

Anybody have a pearl for sub ceramic bezel they want to sell. My favorite watch needs a facelift

My new baby

Mine has been in NYC since September 8th.

My bad....I am getting confused

The lens popped off my brand new AP World Time (photo attached) rep and the second hand bent and the dual time minute hand is off. Basically wore it for about 4 hours. I thought I would save time by just getting it repaired in the US thinking it would be minor cost. My watchmaker said I needed gaskets (probably not the right word for this part). So again I thought it would be quicker just to get the parts and get it repaired locally. I was encourage by recieving parts quickly. Two different watchmakers later still cant get it repaired. Not sure if I should just send it back to TD who will then get it repaired at the factory. It appears to be a relatively easy repair so I dont want to make any more bad decisions. Any ideas?

I have a nice jaeger dress watch that the crystal housing popped off. Apparently my watchmaker says he can't fix because I need a seal. Instead of sending back to factory is there an easier way to get part in US. If so any recommendations.

beautiful.....I wish my wrists were bigger....

Love the breitling. What model is it and where did you source

Love this thread.. Considering the length of time and hassle to get a new rep i think doing PM makes sense. Any good thread to recommend on pm procedures. I am a novice so I will attempt on a low cost rep. Or is this clearly a watchmaker task. I think it is a good way to learn
