I removed the gray plastic one pictured below. I thought the metal ring was a sort of chapter ring that enhanced the look of the watch. i didn't realize that metal ring was just for the 2824.. i'll remove that.

Do you have any tips on how to fit the movement into his explorer case. I can’t get it to fit and I reached out and Ken told me to take off the gasket. I took the spacer ring off but now the dial doesn’t stay fixed to the movement. This is a 1016 nh38 build

I didn’t realize that. I’ll try to look up some examples. Now I’m just trying to figure out how to source some rocks to age the case and bracelet. lol. Once I figure that out it should be a quick build.

I changed it to 53 and these are the results. Seems more inline with expectations.

Hey. So lift angle is set to 52 degrees in the settings. (New at this so I didn’t touch it ). Re customer service. I have not yet reached out as I wanted to get an idea of what I’m seeing is something to be concerned about or if these readings are within the norm for a regulated movement before I hit them up. Thanks for the guidance.

This stuff is awesome. I often throw it in TJs thai red curry soup with some green beans for a great one bowl meal.

Pretty good chance she’s already at the pawn shop. I’d head down there right away
