My baby is back!

She was running fast, so I sent it to the folks at AP Clearwater and it came back 3 weeks later, spick and span. It was serviced under warranty, and came back with a leather travel case (which is very appreciated). I paid for their laser welding refinishi...

Was 14 seconds actually noticeable?
I monitor each of my watches’ chronometry religiously.

Even the kudoke 2 (which doesn’t have a seconds hand) To me, 14 seconds a day comes up to ~7 minutes a month. I find that unacceptable, but realize that it’s a matter of opinion

I was just wondering how people notice it. I assumed you switched around a lot between your watches so when it was really needed you would have them serviced.
That’s what normal people do.

Unfortunately, I’m obsessed with accuracy, so I set my watch to an atomic clock the night before I know that I’m gonna wear it, and clock it at the end of the next day (when I put it back in the watchbox). That’s probably a very unhealthy way to enjoy one...
Thanks 😊.

Yes indeed

Amazing level of refinishing they offer. I must send my piece for this refinishing one day.
Very helpful explanation, thank you.

As a follow up question/clarification, if the polishing portion of the process is with the intent of smoothing/removing excess material used as a filler, then it would seem like the loss of metal is nil, no? I’m assuming they are precision-polishing the f...
You would be correct, ArmisE.

It negates the loss of material issue that is associated with regular polishing. A Lange & Sohne is supposedly the other brand that does this. I know of an independent watch repair shop who does this for all brands, including Rolex
A stunner!

It’s hard to come up with a negative comment😆🤣😂 Enjoy…looks great on you!
I’d have to agree with you on that.
By: Lankysudanese : September 19th, 2021-13:54
I hope that they dedicated the same attention to regulating it, as they did to refinishing it
Thanks!

It better! It’s a tough competition nowadays, with double-certified chronometers in the collection 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks Nico.

I plan to put it to some good wrist-wearing use

Enjoy in the best of health! What size is that one?
Thanks my friend. This is the 41mm 15400.
By: Lankysudanese : September 19th, 2021-17:09
It was the only regular production RO when I was in the market, back in 2018. They now have them in 34, 37 (along with the 41) I believe
Thanks Geross.
