Chrono pusher dropped off

[rolma]

Hey Boys

I purchased a Tag Link Chrono from Josh about 8 months ago. The watch has had little use and the reset chrono pusher has dropped off and lost. I need some advice on what to do. Is it too much to expect Josh to repair or replace it (I havent contacted him as yet). Is there someone on this forum I can send it to for repair. This is my first rep, is this common?

Look forward to your feed back

Chrono pushers are definitely a weak link. I've broke gen and rep pushers alike and w/o much effort and sometimes didn't even know when I did it. After 8 months, it's probably a little late to be expecting Josh to warranty it. It can be repaired by a watchsmith, possibly. If it matches up w/ some of the pushers that Ofrei sells, it would be an easy fix. First order of business is to uncase the movement and then remove what's left of the pusher and measure it w/ some calipers. It cost me $120 to have a pusher replaced on my O&W Mark III. Good luck

It certainly is way to late to ask him to repair it but definitely ask if he can get you the pusher and repair it yourself. Unless it is a fancier threaded pusher that is a repair you can probably do yourself.

Thanks Guys

I think I will take your advice and have a go at repairing it my self. Maybe a handy skill to learn if it is a fairly common problem. I will let you know how I go.
