Technical Help for a Chronograph?
Hi All,I recently purchased a Raymond Weil chronograph watch. It has been working great, but I just noticed that the second counter on the chronograph had now resets at the 5 minute mark instead of 12 o'clock. Could anyone offer any insights before I take it back to the AD?Thank you!

Seamaster 1980s Quartz
Picked up this little gem for a song. Cal 1337 quartz Seamaster from around 1980 or so. It isn't in the Omega database but so many of these old quartz Seamasters weren't. Recently serviced, seals replaced, not a bad deal for $100. Sent from my  using Tapatalk

More Omega boutique openings
You may have heard that Omega is expanding their boutiques worldwide. One opened in a upscale mall a few months ago and I was invited to their grand opening. Got to know a well trained associate and drooled over their watches on display.As I was chatting with my favorite associate, she mentioned that with all of the boutiques opening in the US, people have been sending their watches in for servicing instead of going to their ADs. She indicated that with the sudden influx of watches in for repairs and/or servicing, their NJ service center has stopped taking into new requests as they are backlogged and want to ensure their quaility control is not taking a back seat in the haste of turning requests around quicker.Not sure what's everyone's thoughts on the boutique model and its effect on the AD channel especially family owned businesses. One thing for sure, the ability to negotiate a discount in a boutique will be near impossible.

Weight and Comfort 126600 43mm SD
hello,I am new to the forum. I have always liked the Rolex Sub, but never pulled the trigger because I thought it was small at 40mm. Now I have an opportunity to buy a 43mm SD from my AD. Quite a lot of money at US $11.35k, but I like the watch a lot. I have read all the forums and thoughts on it. My main concern is comfort and wearability. I own a 42mm Breitling Navitimer on a metal pilot bracelet from 1995. I find I never wear it as the band is not that comfortable. I had the bracelet made very loose..so when my wrist is cold, the watch spins around, and when hot, I end up unclasping. I ended up putting a leather strap on, but still wear infrequently.I also own a 44mm Panerai. I just put a RubberB on that watch, but still find it a little annoying. Either the rubber grabs wrist hair, the head of the watch is too heavy and the Panerai Tang buckle annoys the thin sensitive skin on my wrist/veins. I know you guys now think I am nuts. I bought a Panatime flat tang spring t
