RWG Technical Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Well I had a nice break from the forum for the past few weeks. Kept busy at home with improvemnets and other stuff that never seems to get taken care of. I had the chance to get away from home for 5 days, and spend some time in the USA, New York specifically. And a big thanks to one of the members here who made accomadations available to me and my lady. We had a great trip, and one of the highlights was to be able to meet a few of the members from RWG who I have known for a number of years, wonderful to have met you and shook your hands in person. I have some new info to share, concerning the new running seconds at "3" Asian 7750...after 3 years of offering my views on what is needed to make a reliable and usable modification to a 7750 running seconds subdial transfer, it seems as if they got the message...more to come, full teardown and review. Hope everyone had a great August. RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And please feel welcome to visit us here at any time in Baja Ontario (that would be Ohio) where we have already had many wonderful guests from Canada and that would include our fantastic friends from Quebec. French is spoken here after a few glasses of wine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stang Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Great to have you back The Zigmeister!!!! For Real For Real. I posted a topic & reply in the "Watch Repair & Upgrade" sub-forum, including an excerpted quote from you which I found following a Google search. It concerns problems you had w/ another "repairman" and his customers and the subsequent changes it forced you to make. Very sorry to hear about all this BS you had to endure. You, of all people, shouldn't have to tolerate this nonsense. I'm glad you had a great vacation (you deserve it) but I'm much happier to have you back here, cuz we need you. (Reminds me of the theme from "Welcome Back Kotter")... Welcome back, Your dreams were your ticket out. Welcome back, To that same old place that you laughed about. Well the names have all changed since you hung around, But those dreams have remained and they're turned around. Who'd have thought they'd lead ya (Who'd have thought they'd lead ya) Here where we need ya (Here where we need ya) Yeah we tease him a lot cause we've got him on the spot, welcome back, Welcome back, welcome back, welcome back. Best wishes, Jeff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrgod Posted September 3, 2007 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Welcome back! Glad you had a nice vacation in the Big Apple. It will be very interesting to read the review of the seconds@3 movement. Hopefully the good work on the modification is a sign of a change to the better in Chinese modifications. I have not had the opportunity to thank you for the good work on my two TAG Heuer Chronographs. Both are running fine. Good work in replacing and painting the missing red Chrono seconds hand!
