Does anyone know if this movement winds clockwise or counterclockwise. I hand wound it when it arrive and have had it in my winder at 850 rotations per day clockwise but today I found that it had stopped.

It should wind both ways. However, since it is an A7750 movement such things happen. Actually two of my watches happen to behave exactly the same way whilst five other 7750s keep running on the winder without any problems. Even though I already had them serviced by our local watchmaker they could not be fixed but still stop after a while when on the winder. Seems you are just out of luck as well.

Lookee what we have here :)

First time on the wrist, crappy cell phone pic. Completely stock. This watch is definitely stunning, even more in person. Photos don't do it justice. I have a strap coming in from Eric, will do 'glamour' photos when that comes in.
Any other must-do's? Send off to Vac for AR and movement service? Pusher dye?

I may let Domi have a go at a re polish......

Saw pics of a blk themes re polish and it looked amazing..... finer brushed look.... but nervous it could look a bit too chronopassion....

Any one ... any views

Tour Auto finish looks fine to me. This is also the first ROO rep where I do not feel the sudden urge to get AR. The only thing I will do is darken the pushers/crown with Navy Blue dye.

Yes .... those bloody pushers...... obviously on the navy as well... such a glaring mistake.... such a simple fix for the facs... why.... why......

I asked Ryan... who has a simple dye fix if he could do it.... I knew he wouldn´t but worth a try.....

I am not cut out to work on anything small or technical... and never will be .......so I will try and find someone who can do them... they bug the hell outta me !!!

Going to do the Domi polish anyway and see how it turns out... I will take before and after pics..... and post

Anything Domi does makes things better. He could probably even do the pusher/crown dye mod for you as well.
