C8 flyer crown

Post by Smudge1962 »

Wotcha

I'm very tempted by these 50% off C8 flyer autos. However, the crown looks to me rather vulnerable to being either knocked off (something I've done in the past) or, at least, pulled out inadvertently and as a result, the hands being moved.

Any owners out there that could put my mind at rest or otherwise?

Gratitude in advance.

I have the C8 mk2 U2 version with a similar crown, worn it lots and no issues. Shouldn't be a problem IMHO :D

Don't worry. Crown stem is firm and crown not pull out easy...
