The Zigmeister thanks for reply.
I should have known better but the thought that i damaged my DRSD made me impulsive.
Just checked it and it's all OK and can be handwound again.
Most have been the 2 hours of pratice which winded the movement fully.
Everybody thanks for there help.

GPLRACER,
hit the search button and type WM9 or Euromariner and you will find the answer.
If you ask me it's done because of the too big laser etched coronet.

Thank you guys.
I let it run down and then see what happens. To be more specific i still can set the date and time.
Could be the case that the crown is worn out but i think i've worn this watch for only 20 times and there was a brand new gen crown and tube installed.
But OK let's wait and hope that everything is OK after the 40 hours power reserve time.

I'm wearing my 1665 DRSD today with a ETA 2836-2 movement in it.
When i want to wind the movement it slips and sometimes it clicks ( almost the same click as the date change )
I've worn the watch all day also during my fysiotherapy with a lot of arm movements.
Could it be the case that the spring is fully winded and the slipping is a security feature protecting the watch for over winding it ??
Maybe i win the price for the dummest question ever but at least i know the answer then.

Tourby once did that job for me.
I don't know for sure but i think he did cut it.
But be carefull it's tricky when you bent or pull a wheel out of place.

it's 20mm indeed.
I sometimes wear it on a black or a James Bond Nato.
Make sure you get a thick strap becuase the thin ones look realy cheap on a fat 1665

I think it looks nice that TWB strap.
But i personally like the BOB Marino much better.
Wait untill you received yours.
Try the Marino Gator that one is realy soft like butter.

@sssurfer,
that's a difficult decision. Maybe i can add another option to leave the crown and lunette polished and the rest blasted.
That would be my choice
Looking forward towards to final result.
