I think there may be something not quire right with my Peregrine
When adjusting the time I unscrew the crown and pop it out. The second hand stops and I rotate the hands to the correct position, all fine so far: however, when I push the crown back in, the watch doesn't start ticking straight away and will only do so when I begin to screw the crown in. It's as if the crown is not seating quite far enough in to re-engage without going onto it's thread. Hope that makes sense! Can anyone confirm that this is not as it should be? It's certainly not like any other watches I have but just wanted to check before I contact CW.

Peregrine issue?...
Re: Peregrine issue?...
Hi Chris,
I had pretty much the same issue with my "new/old" C4 last month. All's well when I change the time, but when I pushed the crown back in the hands would move (as if I'd been clumsy). Never seen this with any of my other watches...even though I'm probably quite clumsy!
I stopped by at Park Street a couple of weeks ago and it started working again. Argh!
Good luck, but you may have to send it in...

Re: Peregrine issue?...
I'm no help at all as I can't remember but I have an Eterna / eta quartz which does the same thing. I know because I noticed it recently so it wouldn't surprise me if other screw down quartz did the same. What does the manual say?Chris_G wrote:I think there may be something not quire right with my Peregrine

Re: Peregrine issue?...
The manual doesn't seem to help....
I've emailed Wera now so we'll see what she says...

Re: Peregrine issue?...
Just to update this thread, after contacting CW about the issue, I had it sent back and they confirmed that it had a faulty crown. It was replaced under warranty and I have received it back today working as it should
