Hi all,
So I bought a VSF Sub (126610LV) in May and absolutely love the watch - its amazing.
Unfortunately after a few months I noticed a significant time loss and upon inspection I found the minute hand appeared to freeze for 5mins when it reached 12. Further investigation found that this only happened after it was set and therefore i could set the watch 5 minutes fast and it would correct itself and then work.
After a few months the above work around stopped doing the trick and the minute hand has got progressively worse.... The minute hand now reaches (around) 10 and stops indefinitely if I set it to quarter past it will work as normal until it hits 10 again and then will stop.
All evidence suggests a slipping cannon pinion which may need tightening. Adjusting the watch works flawlessly as expected.
Soooo... the time has come to send her to an expert to be looked at. Basically i need a reputable watchsmith in the UK who can work on the VS3235.
Its this watch - https://trustytime.io/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_7&products_id=22294
Many thanks...
