Replica Rolex - Seconds too fast

[mark1984]

Does anyone know if its possible to get the seconds hand slowed down on my watch, I've only just got it, its the Yacht-Master replica, it appears to do 15-30 seconds extra in every minute which would put the time way out after a period.

Has anyone else had this problem ith a replica which then resolved itself? Could this be because it hasn't been used constantly?

I would appreciate any help thanks

you could run the battery down lol

hahahahaha This is so fucking sad. The moral of this story is don't buy moody watches.

You've been lying to your family and friends about how much this "real" Rolex cost you, so just continue with it.

"This is the new internet time model. There are a hundred minutes in an hour on the internet, this is why the second hand goes so quickly."

LOL, well at the moment it just acts as a heavy bracelet.

But seriously is there anyway to fine tune the insides? I've also started noticing it stops every now and then (perhaps thats why it ticks so fast; it then has a break) until I shake my wrist, is the a certain way to wind it up enough, so it'll last for a few hours with no movement or does it just tick all the time its moving?

I know you pay for what you get and all, but sh!t I still expect it to tell correct time!

lmao - how much u give for it?

[mark1984]

£40, A mate went to Tailand and these were the Grade A's with the holograms, they did crappy ones for £20 but they probably didn't even have the hands

[funkyfilmkiller]

I got something for you mark1984

a replica F40 on a 05 plate, made it out of a 89 VW polo, it will do 0 to 60 in a week and a half.

only £300,000,000.

Why not just open it and see if it can be adjusted?


If in doubt, give it a clout, and if it ain't broke, fix it till it is.

[mark1984]

I cant open it, I need a special tool to grip the back, otherwise I would

[FireBlade]

Id chuck it in the bin.

[{{909}}]

if u cant open it how do u expect to adjust it, even if there was a way?

force it open, it was only 40 quid, eithe rthat or take it to a watch repair and see if they will help, prepare for the sniggers tho!

[mark1984]

Well I wanted to know if it was possible before I went to the watch shops to waste my time, I read that it requires the rolex tool to open it up.

[Mule]

A hammer would open it.


Phone your local watch repair shop and ask them if they have a rolex tool? I can't see why they wouldn't. Mind you, while you're waiting to have it repaired they'll probably sneak out the back and report you to the cops for having counterfeit goods. Ironside will get on the case and then you'll be in trouble.

chuck it on fleabay normaly works for me lol

[mark1984]

I'm sooo very tempted to chuck it on ebay, but just to save any hassle I wanted to see if it was easy enough for a watch repairer to sort it. I mean surely they must be able to do something

[TwoPlAnKs]

i needed a special tool to open my watch but if you sorta jam a screw driver into one of the holes the tool grabs onto and push it the right direction to twist it off then it will open (its a bit hard though and you'll be likely to scratch it, also be careful the screwdriver doesnt slip and stab into your leg or something)

[mark1984]

Thanks for the tip, I did try it earliet but its just got lots of little teeth around the edge, so I think I'll need a tool to grip it

[stuz]

Shit man, in thailand my mate bought one of them and he has to shake it all the time. Sounds like your friend is shite at haggling. Apparently the guy started at £60 then worked his way down to £7

[-G-Man-]

bin the thing, its only a moody watch which u paid £40 quid for!
