migiandone Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 (edited) Hi The Zigmeister, just recieved a navitimer from a member, there is a problem I cannot fix by myself, the big seconds hand did not stop at 12' after stopping chrono, but it stop 4 seconds later. There is a way to fix this working on buttons? As I remember on other wathes there was a way to manually move this hand. Can you help me? Thx in advance. Regards.

RWG Technical Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 On any of these models (7750 powered chrono's) you should only ever reset the chrono seconds hand Between 10 and 2 on the dial face Unless the hand has been epoxied and secured. You can't fix it with the buttons, the hand has to be moved on the post and re-aligned with the 12. Temporary fix is to open the case, remove the movement, move the hand and line it back up... Permanent fix is to glue the hand in place so it doesnt' move again... RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
migiandone Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Why glue? After I line the hand with 12 on chrono stopped, did it will not remain aligned using chrono? How hard is to remove movmt for a really newbie? Did you think the member who sell me the watches had to not claim this watch was fully functional? he scam me?

migiandone Posted May 18, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 Sorry The Zigmeister for may bad english, "you should only ever reset the chrono seconds hand Between 10 and 2 on the dial face" this means that I DO restes between 10 and 2 or I DO NOT reset between 10 and 2, "only ever" make me confused.

If you line it up with the 12, and only reset when the seconds hand is between 10 and 2, it should be ok and not move again.. When you put glue on the hand, then you can reset anywhere and the hand will always go back to 12... How hard is to remove movmt for a really newbie?

Regards, Mig/ If you have never done this, then it's probably not good to try and do it...it all depends on your skill level... I can't say if he scammed you or not, if the watch arrived with the hand offset, then you should talk to the seller... RG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
