Ok guys... I got the fiddy... I will post the picts...
The only problems I have notice are in the crown guard, CG pin, and the hour hand being a little to short. Angus has made a really nice case... compared to the GEN the slight curvature at the tangency in the case (tighter). But... like we all know it is a numero E0117 dead give away! ...Please advise in this one...
But Movement itself... nothing to be a shame of... besides the flat skrews... Super close.

I am happy ... I going to start with the crown guards right away... so if anyone know anyone... with 1:1 crown guards...
Thank you

I will post the comparo... If you guys want!... Please post...replay!

Well at least you are keeping a humorous attitude LoL...are the screws coming off the metal movement holder screws???
If that's the case the movement could have shifted and stopped the watch.

When I was reading your first post I thought you are drunk, now I am a little worried!

Maybe I was drunk... cause ... WTF ...watch that I just got STOPPED working not even... a full day. I like the case and all. But c'on this is not right. I paid good money for it and it is not fair. I want my money back... or replacement...

I've heard of maybe 1 screw loosening but not multiple on a a6497. Was the watch damaged after delivery? Do you have any pictures of the movement? I would recommend contacting the dealer by email. Send a clear picture of the movement with the loose screws.

ya let's see pics of those popping screws. Could be an easy fix.

Just last night my wife told me I have a screw loose. I think she is very mistaken about that.
