Hi,
I had a same problem as yours I supposed. I collected mine 3 days ago. However when I Started to wind like approximately 2 full winds or more only the second hands start to move. Is that the case happened to you ? I'm worried mine had the similar problem as yours.

That sounds perfectly normal to me.

They will crush it after they find out who assembled it...

I'm sure they will repair it check it over very carefully, and it will probably be sold LNIB.

Congrats, Very Nice.....

sorry but I actually had a typing error. I basically need around 12 full winds to get the second hands moving and I tried again today I need around 15 full winds. Wonder is that normal ?

The second hand wouldn't even move when I would wind it up. According to the Rolex Service if it has been sitting for awhile you will need more winds.

Wow, you would never think a watch of that caliber would have an issue like that. Rolex is so anal about everything they do. Glad to hear that you were treated well and in the end got what you rightfully deserved.
