  • Help ! My TH watches got problem!

    Hi All,

    I bought a used TH Carrera from this forum 2months ago, for the past few week the watch is very accurate and only need to adjust the timing every fortnighly.

    But now I encounter the timing was not accurate, it become 3-5min faster in every 1 hour. So is it that the signal shown that i should go for servicing?

    The watches still under Hour Glass warranty so is there any charges if I go for servicing?

    Pls advise me, i m layman to auto watches.

        Send it for servicing immediately thru' THG if you wish to. Or you may want to go to the service centre yourself. It should be free if still under warrany.

          i think the watch is kana magnetised....better go service centre to de-magnetised....maybe TS put his watch near to speakers or wad....btw not serious problem lar...better to rectify fast than cause any other complication to the movement

            Not to worry too much. If cannot fix, sell it away or throw it away and buy a Rolex.

                hi all,
                I knew the watch will magnetised tat y I always keep my watch away from speaker, tv and etc, but still strike TOTO.

                If that problem is not magnetised then what would it be? Thank you for all the Sifus feed back.

                    An hour? 3-5 mins? Monitor per day basis or per week would be better. If still got problem just bring back to Hour Glass or to Tag Service Centre at Raffles City Shopping Centre.

                    Btw....warrenty is given my Tag...not Hour Glass though

                        i juz encounter my warranty will expired on tomorrow so this evening rush to TH service centre for repairing.

                        The service officer tell me need to do a fully check take abt 2 week and the receipt shown checing is FOC but repair....???? i thk need to pay. The officer also ask me wanna change the leather strap to original strap or not as my leather strap is not original type. Leather strap cost $ 185 and Steel strap $465...Why so much different as brand new Carrera with leather strap is selling at $4350 and steel strap is $4500 rite?

                          straps sold as spare parts usually cost more ..... than the price difference between watch with strap and with bracelet....
                          the hype is true. listen at your own risk.

                            send for servicing....likely there's something wrong with yr spring or the wheel is "loose" hence the timing is fast...this happened to my Zenith recently and i sent it in for an overhaul....
