SD Bezel Click not align to dial?
Hi guys...need some advice? Got my SD a few months ago...love the watch!
I knew the bezel didn't turn align to the dial minutes (of course turn 120 clicks). I noticed the bezel if i just turn clockwise is loose spring and will align? Should I get this fix? Send to RSC in NY? Not let AD fix them self? Also I noticed the watch runs each day +6 to +7 seconds faster? If I get this fix will it show on the watch or paper saying is fix??? |

It would drive me crazy! Send it back for the repair to put in correct order. I would say contact your AD first and let him be responsible for sending it to the RSC to put the alignment and calibration in order for you. Best of luck. That's what the warranty is for in the first place.

I would say send the watch back to the RSC and explain about the accuracy and bezel alignment issues you have been having. Its a new watch still under factory warranty so they will take of you, no questions asked and no problem. Just describe to them what you just said here on your post.
When you get the watch back, you will enjoy a flawless SD.

It can be easily fixed.
But as JJ rightly says, this is one of the things to check BEFORE laying down a cent for the watch. I had a look at three SD at the same time before choosing this one:
