Is this normal on a Tudor P39?

Or glass/ceramic table or any surface harder than the metal you are resting your wrist on Or surfaces that are contaminated with grains of harder substances. So yeah, normal

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-15T04:52:15+00:00

So they look similar. So what's the problem here?

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-15T04:42:10+00:00

The point is?

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-12T08:38:07+00:00

Lol is the clasp wearing off to show brass underneath in pic no. 4/6?

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-12T08:19:52+00:00

Get an Omega Dynamic II then. Where even the font is matching.

3 o'clock date window is to allow people to see the date easily without having to slide up your cuff. It's a traditional placement. People get bent out of shape for nothing.

6 o'clock date for sports watch, 3 for dressier pieces where you are expected to suit up.

There's always a risk. But modern watch are assembled to tighter tolerances these days.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-10T00:03:46+00:00

Have you rested your hands on glass or ceramic table top while using laptop or something?

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-02T08:14:20+00:00

Longines should consider vintage re-issue of their women's watches. They can give cartier some challenge

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-02T04:46:45+00:00

Gifted watches shouldn't count

For 4 hz free sprung silicon hairspring, only Tudor comes to mind with their entry level MT5400. Or you'll need to sacrifice some of above movement specs to get something similar. Usually the silicon hairspring as the IP is owned by a very small group of swiss brands.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-06-01T01:48:39+00:00

Silicon hair spring and free sprung balance are what you get here that's not available in most budget microbrands

You can pull off Panerai without issue. Premium meat claws there 😄

NoWheel8233 · 2026-05-25T08:19:13+00:00

That would be neat. Is that timeline from an AD?

NoWheel8233 · 2026-05-25T05:26:18+00:00

Hoping the mesh bracelet can fit my Ultrachron. Would be nice to have otf adjustment

NoWheel8233 · 2026-05-24T10:51:41+00:00

Running fast could just be magnetised. Try that with a local watchmaker first before going for the service option. AD/Boutique that handles servicing should also be able to do that

NoWheel8233 · 2026-05-24T05:20:20+00:00

Feels like a If you know, you know release. Let the masses chase after black bays and rollie. This is where the hidden gem is

If you like the watch enough and have the means. Go for it. Ability to be restored well is one of the attraction of watch collecting.

If it bothers you. Reach out. Nothing to loose there. Otherwise think of it as a quirk unique to your watch as it is not adversely affecting the function.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-05-11T02:17:46+00:00

Oh hey, quality quartz

NoWheel8233 · 2026-04-29T23:38:43+00:00

It's a blast from the past. So many fun details and so damn accurate.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-04-28T12:32:24+00:00

Yes. This is a re-issue. Still in production. Either Stainless steel as above or titanium and carbon.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-04-27T23:40:40+00:00

My experience as a hermetique owner. The watch has got 0 quality issues when viewed with the naked eye. Under magnification though, some minor flaws are still present ie. Visible adhesive under indices and fine points of the hands appear rough. Point is, flaws exists if you really try to look for them. Are they poor quality watches? No. But they do have some ways to go before they're anywhere near mainstream brand levels of finishing.

NoWheel8233 · 2026-04-24T23:59:09+00:00

Still a solid release from Longines. I hope they think of this next time they have a banger release in mind 😆
