: Hello and welcome, Keep us posted.
: We need to know some ?s about the eara of your
: New chrono.

: 1st was it one of the ones on ebay that is like
: NOS? The NOS ones are like the above post,
: You will notice that it has a screw down
: crrown, and the hands have short white lum
: on them along with the nicer sub second
: hands.
: If yours is like the one above the screw crown
: will have a stamp on it. That stamp is the
: same one on a lot of the last PVD cased
: heuers made when thay where taken over by
: T.A.G. But made by them/ I derfer to Chucks
: post on that. made by somebody close to the
: family. a supplier that helped them both for
: sure.
: If it is like most Le jours you see it will not
: be a screw down crown and the size will be a
: bit differant of the sub hands etc.

: The ones with the screwed crown that look NOS,
: are not the early ones. There for thay where
: made with the modern sythetic oils and
: closed up tight and out of temp changs. So
: it should be good to go.

: There will be a differance in time keeping
: after about a week of useing it every day.
: It may run fast 10 sec+ a day after the 1st
: week.

: If its a none screw type crown and shows wear,
: I would have it serviced, But only by
: persons recemended here by a few guys. If
: you take it and have it serviced by some
: high priced commercial jewlers, I would
: rather you did not have it serviced. I have
: seen to much abused chrono movments by so
: called high end pro watchmakers.
: I think with the info you got from us all you
: should be coverd.
: Welcome

Ok in the watch world everything changes.
I have dial up internet and did not see the 2nd photo , Now I have, and all you eagle eyes (like me) will see that this screw down crown has no NO markes on it. But most screwed crowns do on this modle with these hands.
I would post one of my heuers and one of my Le Jours with and with out the marks, But Its to difficult to post.
Go with all the above info before this very post.
PSS About the PVD La ju. some came with all ss case and crowns. some came with brass case and crowns and some came with ss case and brass crowns.

Its wild, its wakie, its true.
Enjoy your new watch its a good one.
