。。。And yes I know to he prudent with my watch purchases! And haha I feel like I'm the only one among my friends to like brands like GO and Zenith.. Most of them are just into ap, hublot, panerai and Rolex
师弟麦误會呀。。。我唔是地酸你。我相信,你會尚少起步时會慢慢来咧~~~
甲你同款,我嘛是比较欣赏ZENITH甲G.O咧。。。咱两人应该是欣赏这两個目头咧工艺啦!

Rolex don't send it back for testing iirc
Stowa - their stock changes who knows if they buy directly or they get from else where. Don't work in the industry have to dig on WUS to get quality

PP? Read below

German brands don't go cosc

Topic on cosc beaten to death here. Tested on movement, watch maker better take great care casing it lol

Rolex have their own QC lab to testing, Superlative Chronometer Certification.

PP is the one no follow cosc std and Geneva std, they also have their own PP seal std to control the quality.

Yes, that's why u see top luxury watch brand won't bother about cosc cert, like the zenith no cosc no own QC cert, but the accuracy can beat Rolex and cheaper than Rolex. Haha

其实。。。并不是没得修啦。。。只是几率高不高而已。

我们先来了解为什么会起雾气。最简单的,就是錶进水了嘛~~
那么錶为什么又会进水咧?基本上有两个常见的戴錶者通病,疏忽与无知。

有些錶标明不能入水,但是戴錶者却又跃跃一试。。。
幸运的,錶家的产品防水做得好,不怕你乱搞。不幸运的,无奈,錶是被冲被灌但是没浸入水盆,还是会入水。因为戴錶者的无知,忘了腕上手錶的防水限制。。。入水,就会起雾气了。

至于疏忽,有时是人为的。。。纯粹是一时失误,忘了锁进錶冠,就有机会让大量的水灌入,滞留在机芯里,不只伤了机芯,也坏了錶盘。
另一种疏忽,就有如我以上的山度士,用了多年,忘记手錶的防水功能会因岁月流逝而慢慢减弱。。。多数原因集中在锁冠的螺丝袖上。
锁冠,松冠,转出转进的,日子久了,螺丝纹也会慢慢变薄的,甚至光秃,到时錶冠就不能再锁了。
另一个比较常见的,就是螺丝袖的腐蚀与裂痕。我的山度士就是这种情形。锁,还是可以锁。但是就不能防止水的侵入。

这也就为什么我开头的时候提到几率了。老吴那里有螺丝袖可以换,但是必须要能与你的錶冠尺寸吻合,这样“合”的几率是比较少的。。。
我建议,借此机会将錶送去给老吴洗油,修理。如果錶冠的防水胶圈可以换新的,就换。新一代的胶圈品质比较好,可以耐上一阵子。
如果你那只錶可以洗油,还可以整修,就算换了胶圈防水差,以后细心戴就是了。。。毕竟这是长辈留下的纪念。。。

ok, bring to lao goh let him see

GPGT. You seldom will see such a suay kia's story in yur life.

Sincerely hope this turns out well for you. But on a side note, try not to have a defeatist mentality that you are suay kia etc, sometimes it is self-fulfilling.

Not sure if the posts on offers/PM made to you are genuine, but if the watch really bothers you and the offers are reasonable, perhaps it is best to off load.

While this is a watch thread and I too enjoy watches like many here, in this smart phone era, a watch is no longer a necessity as a means to tell time and there are equal or more people out there who lead a happy life without a (nice) watch. Perhaps mechanical watches are not really your cup of tea?

TGIF and good luck again! :)
