nobbylon Posted February 26, 2008 Share #1 Posted February 26, 2008 Advertisement (gone after registration) Check your slow speeds everyone! I just got a 5 year old MP and the speeds where not working correctly. The top frame of the slow speed escapement was slightly bent and not allowing the gears to run correctly. It worked every now and then but mainly the 1/2, 1/4 and 1/8 speeds where running at a 1/30th. I took it in yesterday and after a few attempts at cleaning and refitting the movement WvM found the problem and sorted it. He reckons it's been like that since new as it's never been opened up!!! Smooth as silk now though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rob_x2004 Posted February 26, 2008 Share #2 Posted February 26, 2008 Hardly surprising, but mine came back better than new with a competent Australian CLA and black wax seal on everything to fix light leaks. Reckon I will send it in at least every other year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
