Hi. Just a quick question. I am going to be sending my new ZZF v2s Hulk off for service and waterproof.

Is it possible during a service for the hour hand to be aligned or would I need a new part?

Please note the hour hand is not central to 6 when the minute hand is central to 12. Only slightly but would be nice to have it correct if at all possible.

Thanks

Not a hard job, just need to remove hands and reset them which will be done during a service anyway and the movement will be stripped.

Is that the SH3135? If so, that’s fairly common but only bc the hour wheel seems to have a little wiggle room. It’s hard to tell but when you’re about to remove the hands, you’ll notice that they move about 2 or so mm’s. Mine does that but usually sits in place once set.

I believe it’s a VR3135 as it is a new ZZF v2s. I’m sending it to be serviced soon so will get it sorted at the same time. Thanks.

It will still have a little wiggle room to it. I mean, gen 3035/3035s have a little wiggle room on their pinions but it’s not nearly as obvious as clones. Should be fairly easy but if you’re sending it for service. I wouldn’t even bother.

Good luck!
