So, ever since I regulated my Orient Mako, I only set the time every couple of months or so cuz it's so super accurate. It's been a couple of months and now my watch is about 2 minutes fast, so I went to pull it back a couple of minutes and I can't get the crown unscrewed! affraid

This thing is super tight. I have tried a couple of times to no avail. Gonna have to try again later with something I can get a good grip with. It doesn't help that the crown is quite small and my hands are so large and manly. Anybody ever have a tough time getting your crown unscrewed? I never tighten mine very tight, but damn is it stuck!

Razz I will when I get to Fayetteville. Hopefully it'll do the trick. If not, I might have to try one of these:

you shouldn't have used your "beat hand" to tighten it in the first place. I bet Emily could unscrew it.

I guess I'd better thank Steve for letting all of us to squat.

Didn't think I'd get the laughs this weekend.

Derek and Terry! Very Happy
