Yes I haven't found a solution but I just set my date to the day before the current day and then after I screw it down it goes to the correct date. I'm hoping a full servicing will fix this issue.

Ah damn. Mine isn't that consistent. It will change anywhere from 1 to 4 days, so it takes multiple attempts.

I have a Breitling rep with the A2824 that does the same. Not always, but most of the times. I might be wrong but I think it’s the keyless works. If it is, it’s a quick fix.

Hi all,

I'm new to the forum. Took the plunge and placed an order for a Omega Seamaster Professional 300m. Recieived my QC pics today and would appreciate any feedback.

Have mentioned to the TD that the markings are slightly off between 8-11 hours. I don't think it's because of the angle the pic is taken either.

Damn! DHL delivery guy rang the doorbell with my package in his freaking hand and my wife was washing her hair and did not open the freaking door. I am pissed! Now I have to wait another day! He left the little door tag, said he'll try again tomorrow. I had my wife sign the tag for him to leave it without a signature. DAMN!:angryshout:

Thats nothing lol.

What would you say about this pic?

Its defo the angle. On this pic the camera is high and slightly left of center looking down making the bezel look out of line with the dial.
I had to confirm with only pic that shows alignment ok and all others were taken at angle showing misalignment.

The one before it came out the box.
Now, all i have to do is look past is the glue on bezel pearl...
Still it's my glue and i like it.:crazy:

Pretty cool!

I'm not a fan of the yg on it (rg is more consistent and subtle) but I like the fact the there are no red color accents on the dial which makes it less sporty and more elegant.

It looks spot on from those pics, I wouldnt have any issue after seeing these,
Looks like your getting a nice sample there. Lume is very white and clean as well.

Did you accept?

Yep, accepted it and now waiting for it to come in the mail :)

Hey
Does anybody know what size screwdriver fits these bracelet link screws, none of mine will fit. The slot on the link screw seems very thin. I need to order a new set of screwdrivers or at least 1 new screwdriver to size this bracelet.

This is what I use for all my bracelets, hasn't failed me yet https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071PB4RPV/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

If you want to invest a little more, this is higher quality https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009OWX5HU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Is the buttons on clasp on bracelets loose on your pieces, mine woggles quite a bit and wish it didn't. Also, the inner side of clasp is quite sharp, compared to smooth one I got on 42mm VSF PO 8500.

This post is from 4 months ago but have there been any improvements to the clasp or is it still the same?

I want to buy a V2 bracelet since I got the watch on rubber. Debating buying another SM300 in blue since I already have the black dial, this is just an incredible watch for the money - rep or gen.

I'm thinking on the YG on black rubber strap.
It might be "too much" on the SS YG bracelet
But I might buy it with the SS YG bracelet + the rubber strap.

But I can't decide. The more I look to the Rose Gold, the more I like it.
But I guess the yellow gold is the one to go...
Let's see :)

Please post some pictures here when you receive it :)

Cheers
