Dave, I have two more questions.... I recall your
In Response To: First of all >>> ()

1) I notice a tiny 'jump' of the spring pin when I tug at the bracelet. This spring pin is the one that holds the bracelet to the deployant clasp.
account of the super deal that you got on yours from the auth. dlr. I got a similar deal, but it was from internet (grey market) dealer.

Integrity of the connection does not seem threatened.

Is/was yours like this?

2) When I use the (top) pusher to start the large second hand - the subdial second hand jumps a little forward.

TIA

STEVE
