Watchmakers solution...
Spoke with my AD a few days ago. He said all the watchmaker did was " Re-Post". He said the post was loose, so all he did was repost and tighten it a bit. I could see the space difference between the second and hour hands, compared to a new Ref # 49905, which is maybe .5mm more spacing.
Problem isolated, and solved. The watch has been working flawlessly since the minor service. Now GP's customer service is another question in my mind.
Best Regards, and thanks for all the insight,
Kevin
