Thank you Bonesay (are you an island near Rothesay?)
Your comments are very helpful, and are spot on if you have the crack, unfortunately I am only into my second rep, my first is a 5002 Big Pilot, which i wear everyday and is quite simply as perfect as the real thing can get. I know this as I had to sell my genuine one to pay for a house move. I cannot fault it in any way. I bought this from Angus so it is with surprise that I have had bad luck here.
The Bezel was so loose that if you brushed it with something very light it rotated. I think that a watch should have a properly regulated and serviced movement if you are buying it new from a trusted dealer. If there are likely to be issues with then it should be made clear in the sales burble.
My diy skills were good enough to stick down the bezel top plate with Superglue.
Apart from all this there are about 20 emails communicating about other service problems - watertest/QC pictures/strap/ shipping refund/ wonky tracking numbers/ Nato strap/ cost of corn flakes/ Graeme Swans odi bowling average/ where is Adele Stephens these days ........ I miss her so!
