The Dw 6239 black dial, what to do?

[Guest zeleni kukuruz]

So i got this watch from David. I got it just to show some clients and co workers of mine.

It's overall very nice watch, i realy like the bracelet feels so nice on the wrist. It's waterproof i have tested it to 3. And it keeps time perfect!

But the chrono at 6 is still running when its not seposed to.

So is it a big deal? Does it cost much to fix? Do i trade it? Do i get it fixed? Do i just forgett about it and were it? let me know

MAN IM ALL BEAT, im having a bad fever and a cold for the 3day today! NOW SOME REST!

This is really cool,

sporty and elegant at the same time,

Can you tell me how you get it? piece by piece?

Or already assembled?

How much does it cost ? (also in PM)

enjoy it

Nice watch! If you plan to keep it I think you should get a gen T21 crystal, gen crown and possibly also a gen 78350 bracelet. They make a huge difference, especially the crystal.

As for the 6 o'clock subdial, have somebody take a look inthere, maybe the brake just slipped there somehow, it can be a small and easy fix.

There is likely a problem with the hour totalizer (subdial @ 6) brake (either misaligned or defective) that any watchmaker who works on chronographs can easily fix (try our Ziggy).

Otherwise, it is a beautiful watch. Were it mine, I would replace the crown/tube with gen parts, but leave the crystal alone. Yes, a modern T21, with its glistening beveled top edge, will add a bit of glamor to the watch, but it will also cost you about $200. DW's aftermarket crystal is pretty close to the shape of the original T21 (rounded edge dome), which is why I selected to leave it on my 6263

I think M posted about a new after market crystal that has a beveled edge like the gen and is very inexpensive. That would be a good choice. Here is a link to the thread:

Those have been around for years. They differ from the beveled gens in that the gens have a clarity & sparkle that gives your watch a distinctive jewel-like quality, which the aftermarket part lacks.
