frankpower88 Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 Hi guys, so this all beagn about 5 haours ago when i received my 217, its a Sead modded 217 with relumed dial flush cannon pin and CG mod. it looked beautifful, except the blue AR. but when i went oustise, under the sunlight i could see lots of dust particuls under the crystal. thats when it all began. i decided to take off the watch movement to clean the watch. once the movement out, i decided to ripp off the crappy blue AR. took about 5 min with a cape code and polishing paste. untill then, everything was perfect, no more AR, and clean crystal. BUT, when i put back the watch in its case, 2 hand fell off. the sec hand and the minute hand. i tried to put them back but i dont have the good tools for it, so i gave up. also, i noticed that the dial was not fixed to the under lay where the lume i applied., its like if its only the hands that keep the dial held to the rest of the layers. maybe its how its suppose to be, i dont know so now, i have a beautifull 217 with 2 missing hands, that i cant put back on. seems like i'll have to ship it back, but i'ld like to keep it in america , because i am in canada and i dont want to aship it to europe. is there someone that could work on this watch for me?? Thanks for the help and advice. Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luminati Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 I'll help you out, if you'd like. (I like working on the 47mm's more than wearing them.) PM me if you're interested. Lots of happy buyers on RG and HF if you want references. I just sold a 217 I molded and miss it already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
