The black PO decided to get condensation inside it during a quick shower :rolleyes: so the Pumpkin Twin has stepped up to the plate while the other is left in a bag with silica gel (Hairdryer worked, but when it cooled, the condensation returned, so I'm trying another method, and, after my experiences with my project watch, it's not going under any daylight lamps :lol: )

BLACK PO LIVES!!! I pulled the case back off, dried that, and then gave it all another blast with the hairdryer. It's dried out, but left some residue inside the glass. Irritating thing is before the crown was replaced, this watch was water resistant... Had a narrow escape putting it back together... I found the regulating screw, and (on Pumpkin as well) cranked it back by (hopefully) 5 seconds. Since having the new crown fitted, Black has been a tad 'temperemental', about re-starting after being re-set with the hack stopping the hands. Took several attempts of pushing and pulling the crown in and out, winding and shaking, and finally, it re-started. I'm hoping the time will be closer to +2 seconds (should certainly be withing COSC standard) but I'll have to wait and see. Either way, I think it's time to book it in with a local watchsmith for a good once over and be made water-resistant once more :happy:
