• Mines going on boring adult stuff and the cost of living.

    In other news I received the GP.

    Pros:

    • it looks nice
    • visible condition is decent
    • I think it will be liked

    Cons:

    • it is very, very stiff to wind relative to anything I have wound before
    • it stopped a few times yesterday and has just stopped again
    • after a wind and a wear and being left over night the power reserve lasted 7hrs.
    • after extensive interneting I am 99% the rotor/weight has been milled out for some reason with a spacer ontop and a screw to hold it. So it should look like the nickle movement.

    I want to take it to Alsal to have a look, but as he said they don't do eBay watches and only looked at the previous one as it was a present I feel a bit embarrassed going back immediately with a dud.
