cromodora Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Ordered my 5004 from Trusty and it got finally couple of days ago, dont have to mention how thrilled I was...after couple of days of continous watch wearing I was surprised to find out that it is clearly something wrong with mvmnt, I found out that power reserve that watch has is somewhere around 20 mins....now I have to find someone to have a look at the mvmnt. Dont know if any of you guys encountered something like this ? Seems to me it is a poor mvmnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cats Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 I don't have any experience with automtic movements in the BP5004. But the best solution is to figure out a solution with Trusty , since he supplied you this watch Carpe Diem Cats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 how is the amplitude of the balance? If it is almost none, you'd better send it back. Actually I think this is not an easy fix by a watch smith, so I guess that is going back to China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cromodora Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 I'll try to take it to the local watchsmith, if he cant figure it out then it goes back to china unfortunatelly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HaloArchive Posted May 3, 2009 Report Share Posted May 3, 2009 Thats sad! I just bought a BP 5004 from Josh recently and love it. Updated hands, etc. Power reserve on it is actually quite long; I was surprised. Best of Luck!, H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cromodora Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2009 Still at the watchsmith, waiting for his call to see if something can be done. in the meantime the other watch from trusty also broke down, it is ladies datejust with swiss mvmnt, or it says so, just stopped doesent wind at all and doesent move at all, I've been dealing with several dealers during past years and must say that Trysty QC is just horrible!! As for myself I wount be bying any more watches from him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
