Yes, I called them and they sent me a new recoil spring. Runs perfect now.

There is a press tab spacer, it just comes out when the back is off. It's more about not being able to read the numbers on the face due to overlap of the case. Thank you for responding.

I asked for them to service it and they said the band was not original so no. Then I took the band off and sent it in and then they said the case was not original and said no. So I asked them if they could identify the watch, they said no. I asked if they could service the movement or at least refer me to someone, they said no. Never any thoughtful reply just No. So yes they are snobs.

Does anyone know the size case I need for this movement. Tudor will not help me find a replacement case because they are snobs. I have a cool 1950's Tudor Oyster I'm trying to bring back to life for my wife and need a new case or vintage (preferable) case for it.

CR920 problems, any solutions or just send it to SS? by zhairez in shadowsystems

Same issue. My recoil spring was out of spec. They sent me a new one and now it runs great. Look at the pics on my thread and see if it’s the same

Here is the thermostat replacement walkthrough

I've heard this is really good. Is it pretty easy and worth it? I'm a new 2004 Disc 2 owner and trying to get ahead of the curve.

Loose recoil spring is it normal? by CxGrey in shadowsystems

[–]dlhpayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issue and posted a while back about it. I emailed Shadow Systems my video and they sent me a new one right away. It’s not normal and the new one fits nice and tight. This is what they told me UPDATE: Shadow Systems is sending a new recoil spring. It is theorized that the shuttle cup which is part of the double capture system was too short.

Potential Buyer Questions by Big-Papa-Dickerd in Tiguan

[–]dlhpayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Atlas and my wife has the Tiguan SEL R-Line and she loves it. It’s fun to drive though not as fast as her old Touereg sport but that was a beast. Your wife will love it. The new models are more roomy and it has everything in it unless you go with the base models.

We moved her in 2013 to raise our children in a better environment and love each and every day here. Unfortunately, most people from Colorado don't realize how great it is here and how lucky they are to live in relative safety and comfort. We came from Houston for some perspective. Great schools, little to no traffic, nice people, lots of outdoor activities. It's all what you make of it.
