Glad you got it back Rolf! Carlos done it as he promised.Hahaha, you might be on to something there buddy.
For the case-back, I'm surprised...???
Are you sure that the case was changed or was it reblasted?
Maybe the guy who mounted it thought:
"What the heck, we cut the cost: This guy never sees the case-back when wears it...It's written "change dial and case" , nobody's speaking about the case back, føk it! "
Or he thought:
"Hmm, tonight I will finally go out with the chick who works on the hands&dials setting, I should wear my gold-plated Prometheus chrono with my lucky brown shirt..Perfect....Where is this case back...Ho, there...Hop!"
Well, good luck my friend, breath deep and relax...
But Carlos mentioned, even though he couldn´t say 4 sure of course, that maybe they thought that I had specified a particular serial number ...and would like the same number still (but with a scratched back?) Either way, Carlos offered to fix it yet again, and he to was upset that even now things were not 100%. But as I said, no more shipping watches around for me for quite a while ...I´m done.
But, on an end note. At least now I have a watch free of dust (I have checked quite closely:0), the play in the chrono reset button is completely gone, the internal bezel is not as loose on this one.
And btw, as you asked about me being sure they didn´t just reblast the case. The Greek Son of a .... that raped it whilst "reluming" (aka taking a dump inside it) made such big dings in the case that I would have seen it if it was just reblasted. It is a new case, dial, hands etc, just not the case back.
This has been a loooooong and strange road this ...And one I hope I never will have to walk again.
