No such thing as an "easy fix" 99% of the time. Here's a question, what's the most you're willing to spend to make it right, if need be?


Well to be honest, i don't want to spend anything. The seller stated in the auction that the watch was in good condition, and that the chronograph was working okay. And now it appears it does not work okay. I think it's up to the seller to get it repaired and send it to me in the state he said it was when i bid on it.
He offered me to pay for the repaircosts. So he's willing to solve the problem.

This is what he says is the problem ''a little bit of rust between two gears in the counter to the right of minutes when operating the chronometry can (not always) stop the machinery'

A service from a good watchmaker like Craig will cost you more than nothing, that's for sure. And add at least a budget of a couple hundred bucks to the service cost if there's other problems that need to be fixed.

If you are concerned about the seller misleading you, ask him to send a video of the chronograph functioning. It is strange that the chronograph magically started malfunctioning after the auction.
