    Hi All, I recently purchased a Sinn556i and love it, but have been having a lot of trouble with the screw down crown. It takes multiple attempts to catch on the thread when I try to screw it back in, and it frequently gets stuck or sort of floats between the three crown positions. I tried to...

    I have successfully used screw-down crowns on watches for over 20 years, from low-cost aliexpress jobs to modestly-priced Seiko and Citizen to watches that push to the limit of my self-imposed $1k price cap. When I screw the crown back in, I turn it backward a bit until I feel the threads...

    Hey folks, my wife just got me a Seiko 5 Sport model that she found on a random sale the other day at Kohl's. I had always known about them but never gave them much thought - but I'm kind of surprised by how much I like a push-pull crown compared to a screw down. Like I didn't realize how...

    Up for sale is my Glycine GL0173 "Golden Eye" Combat Sub. Purchased new a little over a year ago and worn sparingly. In fact, I never even took the plastic off the caseback. Comes on an unworn NATO strap. This is the version that still had the drilled lug holes (which are awesome). I have owned...

    Hi All, I have an issue with my Longines hydro conquest screw down crown. I recently noticed that after moving the crown to position 3 the second hand keeps moving and I had to pull it till it makes another weak click sound then I can change the time. Is that normal? P.S I was trying to change...

    Hamilton Khaki King Scuba Automatic (black dial) A fantastic watch that wears smaller than 41mm implies. The dial is full but legible. It has all the touches of a classic Hamilton field watch inside a durable diver. The bezel action is excellent. I prefer a 60-click bezel over 120-click...

    Hi guys, does anyone has a particular knowledge/drawing/schematic regarding the screw down crown for skx007j? I have seen some drawings of different crowns in some thread but nobody confirmed which one applies to skx007. Thanks!

    Hi everyone, I am just getting into the world of amateur watchmaking and one of my projects is a Orient Mako XL I picked up for cheap on eBay.

    Hello, I am looking for a beater to merry myself for Christmas :) I should use it mostly at work (office) so it needs to be quite dressy (no diver). However, as I am rather clumsy, I tend to knock my watches on doors or desks occasionally. Also, I do not like crown guards. Thus, the screwed...

    Greetings to All from Missouri, I have my eye on a Citizen BT0000-58L, E310 movement. In reading every description I can find on the web, I see no mention of this model having a screw down crown. However, when thumbing through on-line pdf files of the owner's manual, there is information...

    OK . . . here it is: suppose someone picks up a Planet Ocean or Seamaster Professional, and decides to set your watch for you . . . something a loving spouse would do. But the spouse cannot pull out the crown because she doesn't know it is a screw down crown. Now, could the spouse exert...

    Hi everyone. I'm very interested in getting a Hamilton kaki field chrono probably through ebay. These ebay stores appear not to have Hamilton gaurantees but rather their own warranty (typically 2 years) in which case they send the watch out to Hamilton if their is a manufacturers fault. Does...
