New owner

Hi,
Finally after many years I bought a IWC ,alas pre owned, had set my heart on a 3227 in titanium as I believed that after 20 years of Omega a S/S one would be to heavy so I decided to go for the AMG 3227 ,went in the shop tried it on and it felt lost even on my small wrists[6.75] and I,m sure due to the weight I would forget that I'm wearing one,so changed completely and purchased a Aquatimer Crono in S/S may not be as good a watch as the 3227.
One question sizing is not easy as the buttons are rather stiff? only the bottom 2 are easy the push ,do they seize up.

Hi,
Managed to free off the links by cleaning and plus gas only problem is the half link the button did not return so it no longer locks the pin .what is the part number and were do I get one.
How do I upload photo's.
Thanks Mark

First of all, congratulations! As for the button in the half link: if you have it isolated, you could try cleaning it in an ultrasonic bath. Never do this with the watch itself, the ultrasonic sound can cause damage to bearings and jewels.

Kind regards,

Clemens

Hi,
The aquatimer was a no go ,so it was returned for a refund, should I go for another aquatimer or something else? couldn't find a Aquatimer with bracelet So as I'd got use to the size of the aquatimer I decided that I could manage slightly larger and purchased a Mission Earth in mint condition and still in warranty, surprised that it is not as bulky as the aquatimer ,
So to anybody that thinks they can't carry a big watch I'm only 6.75in and it sits well on my skinny wrist,some my find it strange but I do were them on the inside of the wrist.
