Guest Sql_pl Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 Together with my latest arrival YCM Tuiga HBB I received a black themes SS AP ROO. Did not wear it so far because it came on a bracelet that I hate instead of rubber strap it was supposed to come with. Anyway today after I got the bracelet off to ship it back to my dealer I tried to set the time and wind it and I noticed something odd. It seems like rotor is somehow attached to the crown, I mean when I try to wind it manually or simply try to screw the crown in I feel that I am making the rotor rotate with extreme speed, it makes the whole watch shake in my hand. So the question is - should I just pack the whole watch and send it back, not just the band or do you think it might be an easy fix? Please let me know. Thanks in advance!

MADRED7 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 M. ...regardless if this will be an easy fix or not...the watch is not 100% in function...SEND IT BACK! Theo P.S.: I had the same problem with another chrono and it died shortly after I realised the fault. P.P.S.: I have the same problem with an MBW ROO and I just shake the watch a bit to get it running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangers158 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 The Concord C1 are like that as well. Its quite ok. I think the rotor is not heavy enough or something. But this does not affect the functions of the watch. Its probably a batch issue with the movement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Logan Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 This is a problem with the movement, and will stuff the movement if you keep winding it. There seem to be be two contributing reasons. (well according to recent posts here). One is the slipper clutch sticks, and secondly the click spring is too short. The Zigmeister did a post on the slipper issue a few months back, and GBD did a great post on repgeek regarding the click spring issue. Sorry no links, but can't be hard to find.

rcrscom Posted October 8, 2008 Report Share Posted October 8, 2008 Mine had that same problem, but died within 5 minutes of setting the time... Rec'd in August, and been at the watchsmith ever since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
