Q:
I received the parcel this morning, but
there is a problem with the watch. The second hand is broken (the hand isn't
attached to the central axis). I send it back to you for a new watch.
A:
Sometimes second hand may fall off. Can you find a local jeweler to
re-install it? It's a tiny job, may cost minimum or free if your friend is a
jeweler. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Q:
Unfortunately in France to give a watch
under repair is around $65, which is almost the price I paid for this SHANGAI
611 watch...
A:
That is not true. I have a French
customer who fixed up M172S in only 15USD. Check with your friends and watch
forum members.
Comments:
Little problems, for instance second hand falling off, crown pulling out, spring
disengaged from winding shaft, are inevitable. These tiny jobs take 3-10
minutes to resolve, the cost should be minimum. In China, it is always free if a
jeweler opens the case to have an inspection. If problem were not solved, no
matter how much time and effort had been spent, it would be free of charge. Re-installation
of hands may cost as little as $2 or $3.
All watches, no matter what makes, what models, can be fixed in China. However, considering the cost of shipping and transit time, it is
recommended to have a personal designated jeweler or make a friend with a local
jeweler.
Remember, an inspection should always be free. No problem solved, no payment
- this is the rule. Do not pay upfront to a jeweler who is not trustworthy. I
had a customer went to a shop, the jeweler opened the case, but did not solve
any problems, still charged $20. It could be avoided if you had a designated
jeweler.
Here is what the French
customer, Pierre. wrote.
For me, I have a problem with my Sea-Gull
M172S. The flying-wheel for automatic rewinding is not properly operating. In
the beginning the back wheel was turning as a drop of mercury. But now it jams
from time to time and the rewinding doesn't make itself anymore.

Last week, I took part at a congress on
the topic of water, in Toulouse city, France. I gave a conference entitled:
"Magnetic memory of water and biological nature of life". This
conference was much applauded. Thus, at the time of the following coffee pause,
some listeners came to speak to me. They observed that I carried no more the
magnetic ornaments I had preached during the past years. They asked to me
whether I had found a new system for the active protection of the biological
life. My answer was: "yes".
At the same time, on the other side of
the street where the congress was held, there was a watches shop with a
repairing watchmaker. I carried my Seagull M172S to him, to have an estimate.
It was a young man, but He immediately suspected the fastening screws of the
rotor. He kept my watch during two hours, because it had others watches in the
course of repair. Then He opened mine, dismounted the rotor with its ball
bearing, cleaned it, reassemble while screwing well. And my watch was thus
repaired, for 10 Euros, i.e. 14 US $.
People around me, at the time of the
pause coffee, understood that my new system for protection activates biological
life was quite simply based on the fact of carrying to a right wrist a watch
Seagull M172S. Certain sensitive people who were present required to check my
idea, with their own systems of intuition and perception. When these sensitive
people entirely confirmed my idea, many people, one after the other, asked me
for the code to be able to buy this watch. I gave them, but asking them to
maintain the secrecy, because my biological and psychobiological studies on my
own example of life are still in progress. All people promised, but I do not
know how much people will hear about afterwards and to put them to order you
this watch Seagull M172S……...
