Hi all,
so here is the thing. I have an V1 ploprof, that have delaminating crystal. This repair will be done in part 2 of this topic (maybe next month) when I will get spare crystal, and I will also relume the bezel insert. In this first tutorial, I have repaired the date function and relumed hands + dial, + ONE EXTRA mod, and I wonder who will find out what it was
(it is noticeable in picture). The problem with date function was, that about 1 moth ago, I have dropped my Ploprof on laminate floor, because of the faulty springbar. Back then everything was thank god ok ! But after 1 month I have noticed last week, that my date function is faulty. The date layer was moving freely with the movement of my wrist. SO I wanted to repair it in this weekend and thank god I have made it ! I also told my self, I will relume the hands and dial, in the process (If I will have them already off). I have picked up the Aqua color of the lume, because me thinks it is more brighter and also it last longer.
And I have found an problem. When removing the dial from the movement, the thing has fallen from it, and it was date wheel sticker. So YEA ! only the date wheel sticker has unglued so no damage to movement, I was happy. So I glued it back to its place.
And watch finally assembled back on its mesh !
And finally video before and after
