She's Back from APSC
Hello all as you may know I purchased a 26401.RO on July 1. I was using the Chrono and noticed when I stopped and reset it the min and hour hands reset one tick forward on each. I immediately called my AD who I purchased from. They contacted AP and they sent it in for me. Two weeks later my baby was back and running perfectly. My hat is off to both Swiss Fine Timing here in Chicago and APSC for the fast and reliable turnaround. Here are some more pics of my baby.

Awesome watch! So glad you have it back to enjoy!

Sucks to send in a new watch but sounds like good service as usual from Clearwater. Betsy called me today to let me know my FC diver will be back home tomorrow morning. Full movement service and testing only took 3 weeks. Not bad at all!

I have done the same thing and pick my 44m RG up tomorrow with the hand advancing problem. So goes the minute hand not "wiggle' at all now? solid as a rock? The AP service in Australia have said its better and only moves a little now which is normal. I haven't picked it up so I cant judge yet.
I don't know what to do if its not right as theres only 1 AP service centre in AUS. They have been so bad to deal with so far.

I am sorry to hear this. My 44 is perfect now. I would assume if there is still an issue I would send to Le Brassus

Usually I don't like a lot RG or 44mm, but this one is really awesome, thinking of adding it one day as my RG piece, would make a good trio with my 5712 and ceramic diver...
