: Hi Crew
: If you want more insite see Re: Nailed,
: As you may have seen on the post that it was a
: bad deal. and there was no way out. I was
: clear But such is life. So I took & made
: Lemonade.

: Photos to come and if not email me and I will
: email you the photos to post for us
: all.(thanks)
: 1st as you know, it had a 1st class service for
: $482.00. You all know it was a 7754 not a
: 7750. Bummer only the dial and rotor are
: real.

: Sence he would not work with me. I took it
: apart this after noon and here is what I
: found.
: 1st I forgot how easy the 7750 is to work on.
: Its like changing spark plugs.

: The hacking slider #9344 was not installed
: 2nd

: Heavily magnetized, it seems as it was a dip/
: blow and go clean job . as i split upen the
: train it was all wet between the plates.BAD
: & the so called master watchmaker did
: not install the top date plate correctly and
: a leaver was not seated so the date and
: other things did not always work correctly.
: 3; I touched up some brassing on the dial in
: the 30 min sub area as thay must of gouged
: it pulling off the sub hand.
: 4: I mixed 3 colors of luminus to get a true
: color for the hour and Min. hands. ( it does
: not show in the photos

: Also mixed a lot of color for the sub hands I
: needed it to look a little darker than white
: to fit the aging dial.
: 5; A Complete rebuld and done properly this
: time. it took all afternoon , I always spend
: to much time on the day/date stuff, always

: out nice on the all the hands.
: I can not beleave thay charged so much for such
: a BAD job. for $482.00 Thay should of at
