It arrived DOA? Chris that's terrible! crap.gif

well my 779 is running with a beat error of 1.0
I figured I would let it break in or rattle apart whichever comes first before I adjust it subtlelaugh.gif On the plus side it is running...

I've got a hacking handwinding SRP monster if you need a "loaner" in the meantime thumbsup.gif

back on the tudor for me today...



I have to go show it off to my friends at work who I have trained to go "Oooh Ahhh" very insincerely when I show up with a new watch...
 


Thanks Chris (and Greg to answer your question this one came from watches88). The watch timesetting all worked fine and I even gave it several hand winds to make sure the movement was wound and it wound very smoothly with no ill mechanical roughness or hiccups at all, but when I push the crown back in, no seconds hand movement and no advancement of time at all...completely dead. I've also got a pepsi version incoming from hochuanwatch, so hopefully that one arrives safely. (Interesting regarding the beat error of 1.0 on yours!!!)

Thanks for the offer of a loaner SRP Monster!!!thumbsup.gif but, I'll be ok....

Love that TUDOR by the way!!! Such a clean and pure design...just awesome!wowzer.gif
