As Dee said, quickset is different to jump date. For example, my 1986 168000, which needs a service, still does the jump date but the quickset is broken (the quickset position only changes time). |

It shouldn't but it's better not to try I believe that your watch needs a watchmaker to service it |

Always seem to go against your grain locks. Got a 75 which was Rolex serviced, within - 2 secs a day, all original mech, original silver date wheel, clicks spot on. No quickset which can be a bitch if rotating watches but as a daily no probs. Apart from the new LV I would always go for an older model in subs. Jordan if it clicks nicely when changing manually but moves slowly when the watch is worn it sounds like a service issue. Take it in to your local AD and ask for their opinion and ask for an approximate quote for service but be honest with them and say you have a warranty from the seller. If you are covered under a warranty and there is an issue then ask the seller to send the watch for another service to correct the problem. It may not have had a proper service before you purchased it, it's possible he stretched the truth but I wouldn't approach him on that. If you explain you have had an opinion from an AD and would like the function looked at then you shouldn't have much of a prob. |

on my phone, so cant see the pic, but has it got a quirky rascal twist. say like the little hand being the big hand, or the numbers all being swapped about, the 3 where the 7 should be etc? |

It's nice... without the angled dial and bit less writing would have been spot on. |

i watched my watch last night coming up to midnight, bang on 12 when the second hand swooped around, it 'clicked' to change the date, but got stuck half way. so its obviously fucked/needs servicing. |
