The lume on this particular piece is kinda lumpy. It will be that way on any of the SFSO regardless of the dealer. The fact that its cracked is another issue. With regards to the crown, that is something you have to take up with your dealer. Its defective and you should send back.

Hi,

first time I see this crown problem.
Send it back to the dealer, the Asian SFSO are cheaper, but should not look like that (both the crown and the lume, although the lume defects probably are unnoticeable from a normal distance).
Who's the dealer ?

I am so impressed with the quality of the watch even it asian version, the movement it seems good and smooth sweep, date align is nice too, no router sound like other asian, actually i can leave with the lume problem but the crown its not acceptable , i prefer not to say which dealer,

Ruby takes pics of your watch and sends you the pics for your approval before she ships the watch. This would not have happened with Ruby. I realize this doesn't help with the immediate issue, but it could prevent future problems...

I had the same exact problem with my Ultimate PO ETA, screw down 50%. I remove the stem from the crown and screwed down the crown, it was then 100%.
I elimnated a screw down tube length problem or crown failure, leaving the stem to be the problem. I trimmed the stem just a few threads, secured it back to the crown and installed the crown. Problem solved crown secured 100%. Hope this helps.

i will check if some body can do it for me here, the dealer offer me to send for repair or replace, but i afraid to loose the watch or it will take long time, i keep lock and unlock the crown and it help a little, the gap become less, i think that i can leave with it now,

any way its replica and no perfection here, and i am still happy with the wtch, it so nice specially with the blue leather, just i will ask the dealer for some desount for the next parchase, :wink:
