how do you regulate a panerai?

[crick]

i have an asian 111H that's about ~ 3-4 minutes slow a day. I can pop the caseback off with a suction cup and have total access to regulate, but i've not done it before? is it easy?

can i just move the needle on the regulator up/down? what do i use? just a thumbtack or anything pointy?

or am i foolilng myself and its more complicated than that?

Thats about it crick. move it one click and then wait for 24 hr. I think 1 click = 10sec + or -

 

[crick]

so i can just use some pointy thing and move the needle right? no need to have a itsy bitsy screwdriver on anything?

 

[Anubis]

I don't think so, but then again what do I know?
Maybe a more experienced person like vaccum or rb can answer that one.

 

[crick]

hmmmm... i just moved it with a thumbtack, that was simple?

hHAahA thanks anubis. :wink:

Hey if it's stupid and it works...It ain't stupid!

 

[vaccum]

Yes thats the way to do it . The needle will adjust the beat, the other will adjust the rate.

thanks guys,

I've mainly adjusted the needle. I'v accidnelty moved the other two sitting on the balance wheel too, but so far, she's keeping a WHOLE lot better time than before.

I say about a second or so behind my gen PO. YAY!!!! BANZAI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no more 3 minutes behind everyday!

this is so sweet
