If the description of the watch does NOT say screw-down crown, can it still be one? :? My latest arrival simply said quick-set date.......... I had already treated it as a non-screw-down when someone said he thought it was one. Does that mean I've wrecked my less-than-24hr.-old watch? TIA |

Well, let's put it this way.......all I did was pull it out without even thinking about it. Thanks for the info and the part about the water. Thanks, Oscar O.A. Gaspar wrote: tny795 wrote: |

Or, you could've ruined it by being strong enough to rip the crown right off the threads. Did you hear a metallic scraping noise when you pulled the crown to set the time? :D |
