[QUOTE="Shangas, post: 157744, member: 360"]The good news is that my watch has been serviced, cleaned and has had a new crystal put in. The silver has been polished and it looks great. The bad news is that the setting mechanism and the timing are both off. So I sent it back and the watchmaker will have another look at it. The regulator is all over to the + side, and it's STILL losing three minutes an hour. And the setting mechanism, which worked fine before, is a bit skippy. So I'm asking him to check on that as well. He was very polite about it. Hopefully I'll get it back in a week or two.[/QUOTE]
