Re: What's Your Favorite Quartz CW Watch?

Cannot find a way to post an image the right way round! Even if I rotate the image on the desktop it still comes out wrong when uploaded.

Can you add an option for image rotation in the attach files screen?

Re: Can A cell phone magnetized a watch?

In general magnetised watches run fast as the magnetised hair spring coils attract and shorten the spring which makes it run fast. easy to correct with a demagnetiser.

Re: Bracelet: in need of.....

Had really good results as shown. Be very very careful with abrasive paper - only use for deep scratches and always try the scotch brite type pads first.

Re: Advice on servicing a CW Makaira

There is a rubber o ring gasket, does not need to be replaced unless damaged. The screws are not done up really tight, or they were not on my sample. To open mine I used the right size allen key, it fits snugly.

Re: Advice on servicing a CW Makaira

It seems to me this is a simple repair. It will be simple for the movement to be removed from the case and the crystal to be cleaned on the inner surface. While the movement is out the second hand can be checked for being seated correctly. The water resistance can be checked by a competent watch rep...

Bracelet for C60 chronograph pro

Dear All,
Just bought in the sale a C60 chronograph pro - the beast with a strap.

Will a 22mm new logo bracelet N22-STL-NL-RA bracelet I have also bought in sale fit?

Many thanks
Andy

Re: FLE #8 - major changes

The white face red bezel models in the past have been slow sellers but very sought after on the secondhand market - always sell quickly at good prices. They are of course my favourite.
