Guys
I think I've broken my 229 DSN 7750 auto based watch.
Yeah yeah, here we go again, I know!!!!!! When will I learn, JUST STOP TINKERING
Anyhow I think I was over zealously trying to change the time and what appeared to happen was that I managed to unwind the crown
So I took the back off like you do, when you think yer some kind of sudo watch smith and then I realise I know jack about watches. I managed to sort of screw the crown back in but it would not wind up and would only change the time backwards.
Here is a picture of the crown in
Here is it out
And here is it off
So I managed to get the stem out, but that was a battle and I managed to screw it in tight but it is not happy now, and I don't actually think its fixed in for any length of time.
All that happens now regardless of it being in or out or half way for the date change position whatever, all that happens is I can change the time AARRGGGGHHHH round and round those hands go.
I can't remember if there was some sort of hack on these watches, but the second hand won't even move now even so the watch isn't even running.
So have I royally stuffed it and need to start to think about asking DSN for help?, or is something my local watch guy could fix with out bleeding me completely dry?
I really like this watch it was my first stainless steel one and my only automatic
Here is what it should look like
Thoughts and support appreciated as always guys.
