IWC Cousteau Problems

Recommended Posts

I bought a IWC Cousteau from Precious Time for 3 weeks ago, with Asian Movement.

The watch is amazing, but i got one problem, The Day quick set have been stucked between Tuesday and Wednesday, and i cant change days but i can change date. What to do?

I have tested to change it a couple of time and not between 8:00 and 2:00.

This happens a lot on the day/date 7750 models. The date wheel is secured to the movement with covers and screws, but the day wheel is not secured with anything and sits loose on the movement, the only thing that holds it in place - is the dial.

If there is any extra space between the dial and the day wheel, the wheel can fall off the movement and get stuck as yours did. This is your problem, it's had nothing to do with anything you did, it's a common defect.

The fix requires the dial and hands to come off the movement, and fixing the dial and day wheel space so that the wheel doesn't fall off anymore.

This is not a do-it-yourself job if you don't have experience taking movements apart.
