I must now punish myself for such a high WIS crime. :shock:

I decided to put my bracelet on and take the rubber strap off. Strap came off fine and one side to the bracelet went on fine. Bit fought with the other side for a good hour and gave up but then noticed the watch was no longer working. :(

Shook it to see if the second hand would move and no go. Dead as a door knob. :?

Contacted Poul and found out he was out of country but he did get back to me anyway. What a guy. He will take care of me and the Ocean Explorer upon his return of shortly there after. Hopefully he will grant a stay of execution for me. LOL :D

Not sure what happen. I did try tapping the pin in a few time. Re-seated the end link about a dozen times. I don't know but it's dead. :?

So back in the case till Poul's return. Hopefully this humble WIS will recover from this awful crime. :shock:

From what you're telling, it is impossible to have caused any damage.

Methinks there was some anger aplenty, with said watch being flung against the wall out of frustration!:X..................

Only kidding!  Skip, sounds like the balance wheel got stuck. Can't be anything major. Good luck!

Bummer, but good to know you'll be handled. I don't think anything you did would be the root cause. Just a bad break...face4.gif

Maybe it was that underlying excuse to meet with Poul. Now we do have an excuse to hook up for some coffee and he can attend to my baby. :cool: :) ;)

Maybe while he is at it he can make the OE Dawg resistant. LOL :D

Well 3T my OE #41 is on it's way to Poul and then he ships it off to Fricker for a overhaul. I'll take pics when I get it back. Plus Poul and I plan to hookup and meet for that event so that should be a cool get to gether too. ;)

Poul has informed my that my OE #41 is back from Fricker. That was faster than I expected for sure. :)

I'm going to try to hook up with Poul later this week instead of having him mail it back to me. Buy him lunch to make the hour plus drive North to me worth while.;) LOL :D

Will be good to have it back. My wrist already itches for it. :cool:

OE is back in the barn. Had a good get together with Poul. Talk about awesome CS when a watch is returned by the watch company owner. Poul is one awesome WIS.
