Horological Meandering

A couple things.

 

First, the minute subdial didn't track minutes correctly. After being 'repaired', the issue persisted, but at least it was 1 min more accurate than before (i.e., 60 min actually elapsed, chrono reads 59). So it was sent back a second time. Second issue that happened the same time as the first: the pusher stayed stuck. I had to take it to a Sinn-qualified watchmaker locally to sort it out, despite having flagged the issue on both warranty services. Now it's okay. Not sure how good the timing is, but it seems fine, day-to-day.

It's 50% a problem with the watch, and 50% Sinn's handling, which was poor. To their credit, they compensated time back on the warranty since it had spent longer off my wrist in for repair than on it since I had bought it.
