A friend of mine here in Chicago, IL has purchased an AP 15202 by ZF directly from Prof (Steve) with his 2x AR crystal installed. The watch is stunning but for whatever reason the caseback screws weren't tightened enough as well as the caseback being upside down :-(
Unfortunately my friend now has lost an entire screw (front and back), dust/a hair got inside the case and his hour hand got detached. I tried the repair section but no luck. Trying to help my friend find a CONUS only! watch smith that has experience working on AP's. Near Chicago is preferred. The following work needs to be done:
1. Clean inside and remove all dust/hair
2. Reinstall hour hand (My friend found it - luckily!)
3. Remove caseback and turn 180 degrees so it is installed correctly
4. Reinstall missing screw (My friend doesn't have one!)
5. Pressure test/Water proof?!?
Any help is much appreciated and if it needs to be move to a different section please feel free to do so mods. Onto the photos
