Today I noticed that my day wheel is not aligning up with date wheel on B-42 Cosmonaut Ti. Immediately walk over to my friend's office, who purchased a B-42 date/day after seeing my watch, I examed his. Of course, he's watch is flawless. The date/day wheels on his watch align up perfectly. I'm glad I caught this since my watch is less than a month old. I immediately contacted the AD I purchased the watch from. The AD is contacting the Fortis Rep about this issue and I should hear back from my AD soon. Meanwhile, take a look at those pictures. My questions to you all are, 1) Am I being too anal? 2) is this something that can be fixed easily by adjusting the day wheel?   thanks, Rare Last edited on Fri Jun 13th, 2008 12:39 am by rare m5 |

It definitely does not look as good. It stands out more than ad it just been the date being a bit off center..

just try jogging the crown back and forth while in the day/date position without changing anything and it may align itselfhand6.gif

I think I spent about an hour playing with it, hoping that I can fix this. No go. I can't believe I didn't notice this until now. :X Thanks for your suggestion though.

You are doing the right thing. A watch at this price point should line up, and the rep and AD will agree with you once they see the watch.

Is it that way with all days? The reason I ask it looks more like the font is a tad off when you double the size not the date wheel.

I don't think you are being too anal. It appears off and you have every right to have it meet your expectations. I will be interested to see how your AD and Fortis handle this. Good luck!!:D
