Sigh...
Bad luck. Got my Aqua from Andiot
Condensation starts to appear even before the watch touches any water.
Suspect during assembly at factory, there's already moisture inside.
Now realized the watch don't wind at all and second hand only hack at the 3rd position when crown pull out for adjusting hour/minute hands.
Did I get a lemon?
Moisture inside watch prolly already fuckin up the movement

I just got my Ingenieur in the mail today, and while it looks amazing, the rotor is pretty noisy. Is this normal? I'm not super familiar with the A2892 movement, is the winding unidirectional?
Nope, that's not normal. Should be pretty silent.

The A2892 movement, which is used in the V7 Ingenieur, should hack in the time adjusting position (3rd crown position) but not in the date adjusting position (2nd crown position), right?

Welp, after 1 day my Ingenieur stopped running. No idea why, since I hand wound it and immediately put it on my watch winder.

I tried hand winding it again as well as lightly shaking it, and nothing.

Eric says he can source a titanium grey dial. I see it mentioned earlier in the thread as being unavailable so if he does find one am I going to end up with some low end rep instead V7?

Hey fam,

Is it my imagination or does to the 12'oclock bolt in the bezel not quite line up with the dial markers (ie. not in between the two dial markers and a little to the right). After looking at some of the other pics on this thread that seams to be the case for all of them!?



Also, the gen seems to have this too...

I believe it is a bit of the angle of the picture? Looks good to me overall!

I bought extra links and extra clasp from Panda. Pricey but hopefully it makes a keeper.
How much did it run and how long did it take to source? I need one maybe two extra links for mine but really don't want a whole extra bracelet.
