Your not showing the code.I'm going to guess it says 80 somthing and not g3z
So it's a v7 bracelet on a v6s midcase.

You have to open the case back and loosen the movement. There are 2 screws you need to twist in order to do this. Here is a pic showing the screws:

You don't have to unscrew them all the way, just them give them a 180 degree spin in either direction and you will unlock the movement along with the dial.

Now, using a flat screwdriver or a plastic tool slightly push the movement in the desired direction until you get the rehaut crown aligned with the 12h (60 min marker) .

WARNING : do not tilt the watch while the locking screws are unlocked because the movement will fall out of place and can damage the crown tube.

You can check if the correct position is achieved by lifting the watch and looking at the dial from underneath.

Good luck !

do u still have the plastic-mod underneath?

damn i may should have bought no-date(no tell on cyclops). but i like the date so much and anyway i have the telling 2836.
so next time for me: no date SA3135!
does a hulk no date exist?

Yes, plastic underneath. Pins wedged in to the holes with cocktail sticks.

Slight bit of play due to the thinner pins in the lug holes which I will fix with some blu-tak!

Right, my final adjustment, I wasn't happy with cocktail stick in the watch incase it attracts moisture and also I wanted to take away the bit of play in the SEL.

Here is my version of the solution. Many thanks to the OP for triggering the ideas.

I used insulation tape around a 1.8mm Springbar. Then using a craft knife cut half of it off so there is a wedge on one side.

Then used three layers of masking tape on the inside of the SEL.

Result is this. With a lot less movement. Probably the same amount that I had with the 2.0mm Springbars.

I'll consider this fixed from my end!!

Rehaut alignment done as per Op's instructions.

5 min job, loosen 2 screws, move slightly to left or right, and tighten.

Thanks again [MENTION=132141]andrei01[/MENTION]

Now waiting for your black hole fix!! ;-)
