Jonow Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 (edited) Hi Guys, Just recieved a Franck Muller Crazy Hours watch(REP) for my Mum and its dead not even ticking. The rotor seems fine but I don't think the hair spring is working? Any Suggestions? Cheers Jono Edited June 25, 2009 by Jonow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertieng Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 The only option is ask for a replacement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted June 25, 2009 Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I have 3-4 movements for this one...and the rotor doesn't work properly for any of them. I've just run mine with the winder, and ordered 3 spare movements to do swaps on it. At the price of the watch, it wasn't worth fighting for a replacement...and the watch is still fun.

Jonow Posted June 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 I'm still waiting for the dealer to respond. Its a shame because it looks like such fun. (yeah it won't even work with the winder) Cheers guys, Jono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonow Posted June 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 -UPDATE- This is the response I got from the dealer: "Hi Jono Thanks for your e-mail . I am very sorry to hear about it .The stem may get stuck during the bumpy delivery. In that case , i suggest you to return your watch back for replacement . Besides, considering it is a birthday gift , i can send your new replacement out upon receipt of your tracking number . How do you think so ? Pls let me know your answer . Best Regards, Dealer" So far so good! I let you know what happens in the end. Jono Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
