DeepSeaMaster Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 I have a DSN 111h (Swiss Ultimate) and its started gaining A LOT of time... like 10minutes an hour, maybe more... Does anyone know why this might have happened??
OiRogers Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 spring could be hung up upon itself... shortening its overall length, causing it to run fast. A somewhat solid thump dial down into your palm followed by a somewhat solid thump dial up in to your palm will often free the sticking point.... that being said, my watchmaking skills don't even register when compared to The Zigmeister and several others... perhaps one of the more knowledgeable will chime in.
P4GTR Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 Yah the issue with the spring is more common than you'd think. Could be an easy fix. Can you post a nice close-up macro shot of the spring?
DeepSeaMaster Posted August 16, 2008 Author Report Posted August 16, 2008 right, i had a look and the spring did look funny, just gave it a hard whack, so will look again in an hour and take a macro!
DeepSeaMaster Posted August 16, 2008 Author Report Posted August 16, 2008 well, 30 minutes in.... seems to be working! thanks guys!!
Corgi Posted August 16, 2008 Report Posted August 16, 2008 Phew... this is what I always like to read about, a quick community initiated happy ending to someone's frustrations. Fixing a watch is rarely this easy so consider yourself blessed DeepSeaMaster!!
