1) 4:00 chrono pusher was bent.
2) AR coating terribly scratched up.
3) rotor was loose and making noise
4) bracelet had been completely polished (supposed to be polished/brushed combo)
5) bezel had been dinged and then someone tried to refinish... badly.
I contacted the seller and he was accommodating and adjusted the price so we were both happy. Now the work began.
I removed the AR coating using a Cape Cod cloth. Removed the bracelet, masked it and brushed/polished it to new condition. Opened it and tightened the rotor. Bent the pusher back to straight (scary procedure). Masked, filed and polished the bezel to a state where you can not see there was ever any problem.
End result after 2 hours of work... a Sinn 903 St Aug that looks almost indistinguishable from new (except for lack of outer AR coating). I really like this watch and expect it to be staying in the rotation for a long while.
By the way, the 7750 has kept +0 time since setting it, is nicel;y decorated with blues screws and decorated rotor and parts. Very sweet :D
