Yep, what the title says. When I begin to screw in the crown after I set the time or hand wind my Blackwater, it starts to click about halfway in. It sounds like the faint clicks when you are screwing out, but slightly louder. The crown itself does not feel more stiff, it's still smooth. (I think:? , I am scared to play with it to much.)

Any ideas on what it could be? I hope it's not damaged :(.

Thanks for the help guys.:)

I have the Stingray and do not have any problem of the sort...I would imagine that a quick email to Bill Yao would elicit a quick response from him.

Yeah, I shot him an email, I just wanted to see what you guys thought. Yeah my Stingray does not do this either. Weird.

I dont think so, if I was it would look crooked right? Also it would be much tighter and the crown has been in the exact same position everytime it is screwed down since I got it. It's still pretty smooth, it's just the clicks that shouldn't be there. This sucks, it was my favorite watch.crap.gif
