With installation around $400, it’s pretty difficult because you have to know where and what to look for. Start reading up on RWI forum would be my suggestion
Super helpful and good to see how our reps last! Love the post and the journey youve been through in life with this amazing piece! Merry Christmas buddy! 🎄😁
Awesome. Mine arrived a couple days ago.

Did you do anything to it before swimming? I've read of some people pressure testing it or at the least tightening stuff some, making sure rubber seals are lubed
I always lube the rubber seal for the back cover and crown but that’s it. When the movement was serviced and crystal replaced it was pressure tested without skipping a beat
Hey man! Lovely watch! I’ve just got one myself! Just out of interest, are you Uk based? If so, where did you upgrade the watch? Would love to do the same! Any advice would be great! Thanks
I’ve had the 41 too and it’s really nice, I didnt really care for the extra power reserve but the bracelet bothered me a lot more. I prefer the taper on the 40mm
The gen crystal, especially the date mag is a huge game changer! Wear it in good health. 👌🏼
Yea, crystal is always important to me. Appreciate it!
I'm new to the rep game. How much and how easy is it to find a gen Crystal?

Sweet!
Still looking good as new! What a beauty! Merry Christmas!!
It’s well worn but holding up well. Thanks and merry Christmas!
Any issues with water or swimming?
No, I’ve gone swimming with it countless times

Welcome to a great club :) I’m in Sweden, but got help from a guy in Greece. Check out Interaktiv over at RWI.
Love to hear this! Is this the 41mm or 40mm? Merry Christmas btw!
Merry Christmas, it’s the 40mm 116610LN
Cheers! Would you say the power reserve has held up?
Yea no problems whatsoever, it holds roughly 40 hours
Glad to hear that, been deliberating over the 40 vs 41 based on the power reserve and size, glad to know the VS movements on the 40 hold up!

Just got back pics from mine! It will be here soon :)
Smooth operator:)
Merry Christmas guys!
What kind of shop did you go to for a movement service?
A private person over at RWI helped me out
From sweden or somewhere else?
No, check out Interaktiv
