MAHLER Posted November 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 when putting to much grease on the o ring, or as done here in the youtube video, a lot of grease on the case itself, the chances grow to have that grease goes to the place where the movement sits. specially in extreme conditions, like heat and summer, the grease will become more fluid and will go along the metal parts to places where it should not be: the movement. It won't happen in a few days or weeks, but think of wearing for many months/years and warmth and movement of the wrist what it will do... Yes, it's possible but I don't think to put too much grease . However, I will soon make a change to DW (came to me a few months the ring needed for the sunken DW by Francisco) from a watchmaker and I will inform you of the status of this rep after all this time.

MAHLER Posted March 29, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Breitling Montbrillant Légende (Fixed) Back home, after several months, the Breitling Montbrillant Légende that I reviewed here. The patients hands of my watchmaker, have corrected the known problem of DW (like Francisco Modding ) At the end, the result of a long waiting: Regards.

thogaa Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 MAHLER you've outdone yourself this time I bought the Montbr Legende as a result of seeing your excellent review. The great quality of this rep made me think I could easily live with the sunken DW - Now there's a cure Truly fantastic mod to a beautyful watch. Thanks man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAHLER Posted March 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2010 @thogaa thanks @Antstar24 yes same as Francisco. A few months ago I bought from Francisco the ring needed to do the work. My watchmaker did the rest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnukki Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 So what do you call "NOX SUPERSBLOCCANTE" in english? is this the same as "wd 40" ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAHLER Posted May 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2010 So what do you call "NOX SUPERSBLOCCANTE" in english? is this the same as "wd 40" ? I think it is a similar product, what I use is specifically for steel and other metals. But it should be the same product. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
