Well, the easy thing to say would be: "Take a look at post No. 19 in this thread for your explanation. But, I happen to think it's more complicated than our old friend Haydendillon suggests, i.e; a troll.

No, I think our OP is asking for help; he has a watch that he has consistently abused - he thinks that abuse is somehow his 'Purchase Right', and, indeed, over the years he has asserted that in the most forthright manner. He has failed to realise that a Rolex is just as easy to break without due care and diligence, as any other complicated mechanical machine.

Now, it is broken.
What we are witnessing here is guilt. He has abused the Rolex, and now he realises that, in fact, he needs it. Well, we must be patient with him. We must assist where we can, we must, in the spirit of these forums, 'Do what we can to assist the OP'.

But, to give us all a fighting chance of helping you, OP, will you please tell us whether or not you're taking the mickey?

Thank you, in anticipation of an honest reply.
God bless you James you are a patient man!

I do much better when I'm asked directly for things, simple is as simple does I suppose. To the OP what is your end game here? Are you looking for help?
