My 5002: Welcomed Return After Two Weeks with Vac

[sportecaudi]

I just received my IWC 5002 BP back from Vac. I had a relume, datewheel fix and PR needle adjustment. I'll tell you that these mods are a must for any 5002 owner. Vac is very professional and extremely responsive. Hats off to you sir! Just a couple pics on a Gen BP Strap.

I'm new here,...who is Vac? I was thinking of getting a Bell & Ross BR02 which has a few issues he may be able to fix. If not, I may just go with the watch you have and send it straight to him....unbelievable!

@OP, watch looks great. I am so torn between this and the 5004.

@dsv, vac is great. the BR02 is great. The 5002 is great. no matter what your choice I think you are going to be GREAT;0

Wow, nice piece and great pictures to boot! That lume shot is really something.

Hmm isn't the DW still kind of sunken? Or it's just the pic?

Also did you do new AR or is it factory one?

sport,

I'm about to send a 5002 out to Vac this week for mods. What is the issue with the PR needle? I'm looking at lume and date wheel work as well.

Thanks!

grilly,

The rep PR needle sits too closely on the dial. Usually the needle is raised with a glue or resin and moved to full power (above 7).
