valerian Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Hi all Noob problem here. My IWC Flieger 3706 (Asian 7750) is running about two minutes fast per 24 hours. I have tried various watch sleeping positions but this didn't help. So today in a rush of bravery I bought a case opener and a case holder. I read several topics in the repair section on how to slow the movement down. I'm scared as hell but quite determined (keep your fingers crossed). Thank you for any hints!

valerian Posted August 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 OK, watch opened, lever moved a bit counter clockwise, closed again. I'm surprised but it works still! Waiting how it keeps time now. Question still of interest, though. Please PM me, if you know somebody. Keep it anonym. Thank you!

P4GTR Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 I'm sorry Val, this is just a bit funny if you really think about it. I hope your adjustment was all it needed. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valerian Posted August 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Thanks for the wishes! I'm positive I'll manage to regulate it just fine. I've been thinking hard (maybe not my speciality?) but I'm not sure why you mean it's funny. Because I live in the Land of Watchdom? Sure, there's many watchmakers here (actually there's a real shortage here, Zig could land a well payed job immediately!) but will they touch a rep? I think not. Maybe I should get in training... Or was it something else you found funny? Maybe I'm a bit slow here. Valerian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valerian Yes sir, because of Watchdom. But I can see how reps could be a major issue over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
