SOOOOOOOOOOOO IT WAS YOU WHO HAD HALF THE CITY IN FITS!!! Hope none of the flying balls [golf balls you pervs.] landed on the your's truly.... WOW, small small word Carl. Thanks a ton for the parts brother... much grateful I am. Thanks Jimmy, that was one amazingly written HELPFUL post... Thank you for taking the time to share that...

Thanks guys for all the input, I have taken the plunge and bought the darn thing. Lets see......

I could buy new, but I am getting a decent price for this one... around 150 so was thinking if its not a huge concern than i should just go for it... anyone? worth buying at that price or...

hmm, so not that big of a problem? i am just afraid that the movement might die on me! winding the movement while screwing the crown in isn't a problem... the crown alignment seems a bit sketchy to me.

Need your expertise here guys... I am looking to pick up this Rolex SSD - you all know the watch, Swiss ETA and all. However, according to the seller, this is whats going on: When you screw in the crown, the movement winds or atleast he feels some sort of a winding. PLUS, the crown and the tube needs to be aligned in order for the crown to get screwd in. A bit hard to explain, but in plain simple terms; you have to put a crown in a certain position, then push in and screw it in. Otherwise the watch keeps perfect time and all. NOWWW... Do you think there is a potentially serious problem going on here or its a minor issue - maybe some of the SSD owners can chime in, if you experience the same with your watch. An easy fix maybe or? Oh, and the watch originally came from Puretime. I'd appreciate all and any comments to help me decide buying this... Thank you all...

Love the Datejusts....however, on these stick dials with roman numerals on the outside, they should really fix the 8 marker, it should be "VIII" instead of "VII". Siggggh.... Gorgeous watch otherwise. Wear it well.
