  1. Thanks for the mention T Op, what was the initial problem with the watch for you to open it up and remove the movement.? The keyless work sounds screwed up as suggested above, but knowing what else was wrong with it for you to open the watch up and take out the movement will help diagnose anything else. Did you open/work on the watch is a dust, hair free environment?
  2. I find where a tube is too small for the case hole, I use my staking set to flare the tube end that goes into the case hole, and bond it in with JB or other known industrial strength adhesive, this give a much stronger hold in my experience.
  3. Not too cold here yet, 2 degrees this morning.
  4. Blake at Scotchwatch maybe able to help, take a look at his genuine IWC parts. www.scotchwatch.com
  5. Sure looks like a TC mid-case, but unsure which version, but nevertheless, a genuine 3135 should just drop in, so too a Yuki 3135, so a little unsure as to why your stem alignment is out. Is your dial fitted flush to the movement, and not raised at any point?
  6. There is Domi, who is in Germany, but long turnaround times, usually a month plus, then there's me, I'm in Finland, EU.
  7. Odd, BP dials are famous for the triangle being off centre.
  8. Best to upload to one of the many image hosting sites such as flickr.com, photobucket, imageshack, and then copy and paste the tags.
  9. That was after I flared the tube a little with my staking set
  10. Well done, bloody marvellous build, the gen is my grail.
  11. My wife don't own a watch, so I can't join in. lol
  12. Its not resetting correctly, the hammer should be as shown earlier. I'm guessing you mat have a faulty/defective Hammer Spring 7750 by Micky Aldridge, on Flickr 7750 by Micky Aldridge, on Flickr
  13. Did you try to reset the chronograph? The reset hammer is still in the open position, and not reset. I could get it sorted for you, but I'm in Europe, not US.
  14. Nope, he will have to take it to the AP AD and pay for a new €1800 rubber bezel.
