18.03 - finally recieved the watch!

what can i say, i'm more than happy with my first purchase ever. watch runs great so far and looks even better in person.
i finally understand everybody that says don't stress too much about qc pics, minor flaws are just that - minor.

Thanks mate!

What i observed after two days of wear is that first, the crown gets loose. I have to re tighten it during the day. And second, the bracelet screws became loose too. I tighted them too, i'll see if that fixed it or if they will become loose again...

Did you order to Switzerland directly? Still waiting on mine. It was shipped around the same date.

No i actually went for triangle shipping. It was sent via the Netherlands. Can you already check the tracking via the swiss post website?

I bought the VSF one.
The bracelet screws came loose again today. I have to educate myself which loctite to use and where to buy it, so i can fix this issue

No problems with customs? My watch will be shipped to Germany as i live close to the border. Actually, the tracking was just updated today and it looks like it is going to arrive soon.
Regarding Loctite: I suggest to start with low strength like 222 or medium 242. Make sure to degrease the screws prior to application. You can buy it from galaxus.

Nope, no problems at all. Tracking showed that it was cleared within 13mins if i recall correctly.

Thank you for the input regarding loctite! I will look into it, much appreciated!
