Hi All, I am owner of this nice Ebel 911 Discovery Chronograph watch as well, also currently having issues with the main crown - it is broken most likely as rather than setting time/date and winding the watch (sorry for my terminology) the main crown can be pulled out completely and all settings are simply not possible. Since several weeks I'be been feeling the back pressure when winding the watch using the crown, but now it is really broken I am afraid. May I ask you for advice? Should I speak to an ordinary watchmaker? To send it to Germany to an authorised service place would be an expensibe as hell option I assume. Any experience maybe with this particular issue and the solution? Or with the service (price) in general? thanks so much for your help Greets from Bratislava, capital of Slovakia Lubos
