bertieng Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 I have found the spec is different from the last batch. The top of the crown is much more recessed than the previous lot. If I adjust the stem to the length of having the crown sits flush to the case then the lever is too far away, the locking function is gone. If I make the stem long enough to retain the lever locking fucntion then it will leave a big gap between the crown and the case Perhaps T can chim in if I am correct on the spec variance of the two batches.

fitch Posted August 22, 2009 Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) Ai! that's not good news... I also hope that T can chim in, mine is waiting for me to pick it up at the post office and I was really looking forward to installing it Edited August 22, 2009 by fitch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was this one crown in particular (eg. SS 1.2)? Or did you get a few crowns from him and try them all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t Posted August 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2009 (edited) absolute no difference between batch 1 and 2. Same crowns and same quality... I don´t think that someone should have any problems... if he install the crowns correct. Edited August 22, 2009 by t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drulee Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 sometimes it makes trouble to install the T48 crown, because not all CG and pins are absolute identical... minimal differences in measurements makes trouble to install the T48 crown. So please try it again (or on another watch or with another crown) Yes, I've especially noticed this with Jackson Tse's crown guards. I've had two SS and two titanium ones from him and the levers on them all have been sanded to a "nub" just barely touching the crowns he provides Oh well, you get what you pay for I've got a couple of your crowns on my PAMs, and they really do make quite a difference when winding and adding to the overall look of it. Do you still have the T60 as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 please install a thicker a a second plastic ring... probably it will fit better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bertieng Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 please install a thicker a a second plastic ring... probably it will fit better? Sorry T, if you mean by adding an extra o-ring, it won't work coz it will push the stem out of the winding position. I don't mean to raise any complaints here, the T48 crowns are of superb finishes. I am still working on it how to retain the locking function of the lever in the T48. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t Posted August 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 are you sure the left crowns are my crowns? i have check all my crowns and don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolli Posted August 23, 2009 Report Share Posted August 23, 2009 1.) a second seal o-ring between the tube and crown is not a perfect solution, it's a totally wrong method. the correct guidelines for waterproofing and global proofing implies only one seal. one seal / gasket against the other is a dangerous zone. it's never 100 percent proof. 2.) the new t-crown with the deeper recess is only to apply in connection with the little hero crown-guard. this crown-guard has a longer lever extension and it's more qualified for a perfect adaption. rolli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
