You did a great job there mate, love the looks of it. I'm guessing to do one over and also like you did for 15 seconds or something to get something between a new black insert and the completely faded one like I have now
I had a comparable issue with one of my watches. The rotor felt off but I placed the rotor back with the same (small) screw. It's a precisely job but pretty easy to do yourself.
Hi guys,
Last week I bought two inserts from a great member here on RWG. I didn't want to f#ck over a good insert so bought these to try some bleaching. I keep the "original" insert and I will switch so now and then
Well let's see what I did:
I used very fine sandpaper (scotch bright)
After that I used some more rough sandpaper to give it some wear/used look at it
After that was done I used some simple bleach to lighten the colour on the insert (picture was taken before I used the sandpaper )
I had the insert in there for a minute of 4...
Watch out that you don't got the bleach on your hands or clothes
Then I cleaned the insert with cold water. Always rinse off the insert and wipe overweight a paper towel. More paint come off than you think.
And than the result:
On my Tudor 7928 before:
and after:
Sorry to hear this mate! And what Mr. A said. It's a 350usd issue, a PP dispute will make things worse.
Despite that, he agreed with your disclaimer by making a deal. I quote:
4. This watch is sold with no warranty. WYSIWYG! 5. I sell this watch in full working order and stand by this up to the minute it leaves my possession. I accept no responsibility for it there after; be it in transit, or alike.
Sorry to hear this mate! From Belgium to NL and seized!?
If you need any help with the Dutch translation, let me know. But I think you speak "Vlaams" so no problem there
