Question about my trustymariner

[trance220]

I have an issue with my sub, I'm going to try my best to explain and see if there's an easy fix or anything I can do..

When unscrewing the crown to set the time or date, it's almost like the stem is not long enough. As soon as the crown is unscrewed it is already moving the hands around, and there is not enough play to click inward to the date set function. You have to screw the crown in about halfway on the tube before the date will change over, then unscrew until the hands move, then screw halfway in again to change the date.. etc .etc.. you have to leave the date one day earlier, then when you are screwing the crown back down it will click over one day.. the date changeover keeps incrementally moving a couple of minuets earlier and earlier from midnight each time I set the time or date.. anything I can do? I paid too much money for this type of thing to be happening....

Coincidentally I had this same problem with a secs@6 daytona bought from Andrew..Its very hard to explain this problem but I know what your talking about, and it has to do with the spring...Send it back to Andrew and he'll have his watchsmith replace the spring for free, thats what I did..
