In love with Pro One... but minor issues
Hello,
I am new to this forum! Last year I virtually fell in love with the Pro One with orange markers. The case, the dial and - last but not least - the strap are just breathtaking! As I am still a student had to look out for a good second-hand watch and found one. It arrived today. Here is a very quick picture:

I am very happy with the watch! And I reckon that the orange colour even matches my skin somehow! ;-)
However, I have encountered some minor issues, maybe someone can give me some input?
1) The orange lume on the indixes, the hands and the bezel seems to be different: the lume on the hands is solid orange, the lume on the indixes a rather light orange/yellow and the lume on the bezel a true yellow. The watch is three years old.
2) If I turn the crown to wind the watch I cannot hear any sound. So I am not really sure whether the winding works.
3) The bezel seems to be rather loose: I can lift it up (not: off) a fraction of a millimetre.
4) When I push in the crown after setting the time the minute hands usually jumps forward (that is why I did not post a pic with a "smiling" watch.
Your input is highly appreciated!

The Pro-One was also my introduction to the Chopard LUC series. I have it now for 3 or 4 years and I still like it very much. Yes we all know about the loose bezel, but mine is pritty tight now (only if I put my hand in the pocket, it might shift a notch)...
Thank you for replies!

Thank you so much for your replies! Glad to hear that my watch is in normal condition! I have worn the watch over the whole weekend and am thrilled by its looks! However, it is a pity that Chopard did not manage to make it a perfect watch in every way: IM...

to our Chopard Forum and Congrats for your Pro One. Our friends had given you all the answers to your initial questions, thanks to all of them. As for the hacking feature, the later L.U.C 96H24 in the Pro One GMT has it. May not be appropriate to have a s...
Agree with Kong...

On the rate issue. Most likely your watch is at least 3 years old, probably older and in need of a service. If fully winding the watch doesn't help I suggest you send it in. Chopard will probably install the later improved tighter bezel at that time. Than...
