Hello.

does the gf chronomat always have a decorated rotor ?
I got my watch serviced for 100€ in Turkey while on holiday .The person made photos as proof of servicing the watch and it runs flawless so far but he smuged the dial and hands with fat fingers and now it is stained .He claims that it is the glass that makes the indices look like that .I didn't want to argue with that crook .


Do now I am worried that he just swamped my A7750 with a new regulated one instead of cleaning mine .
It would be easy to just disassemble a 7750 put it into a box and then dump it to make pictures with my dial and hands .

I think my watch was given to (strodda?) USA by the previous owner for a relume .

Can anyone shine a little light on if my watch should have had a decorated rotor ?


I might need a quick dial cleaning from a forum watchmaker preferred in Germany.

Thanks for all input .

First of all, you had paid too much for a watch movement service in Turkey. I live in the most expensive city (İstanbul) in Turkey and it is normal to pay between 20 and 50 Euros for a standard mechanical movement service.

Other than that I don't know if you took the service from a honest watchsmith or not.

I got a quote of 40€ from a "jewelry" seller and did not take it .I fear a tourist scam .The last one 2 years ago wanted 170€ for a service but I only wanted a quick balance wheel repair for 50€ . Probably got bend over twice but the butt f*u*k was better 2 years ago lol.
