These older Verona's are pretty cool. I dig the brushed silver dial on this one for sale by Hodinkee

Ah yes, the holy silver dial day-date. If Im not mistaken I blessed this exact one yesterday. What a timeless classic, will look as good in 50 years as it does today.

Exactly, Jim! And thanks for your blessings. Yesterday the watch was dressed in blue leather. But now (as you can see from the date) it is prepared to celebrate a Black Mass in the Church of Silver Dials on Strap Saturday (with an Artem Sailcloth Strap).

I love the Tudor DD. The funny thing is that Tudor sold it in certain markets like Hong Kong up until recently. If you are interested: I started a discussion in the German Uhrforum last year, where I posted the models that were still listed at that time. (The local Tudor web sites are only accessible via a VPN).

Another silver dial, Vintage Accurist 5 button. Really nice in the flesh although not to everyone's taste, I like it.

Well... slightly overstating the facts there... unfortunately I don't have one of these with the digital display, but I'm sure there are some of us here with SELs and 2000s with this movement that could help?

Any help would be appreciated, even if it's just to get the hands pointing straight up lol.
It's a CE1123, the other number on back that I think is the movement is 275.006.

Thanks

Have you tried pulling the crown out and then pressing the pushers? This is the usual way to reset sub dial hands*. You will probably need to do it at both crown positions, date and time setting. If that doesn't work it probably needs servicing.

*When they don't reset to 12 in normal use

Have you googled an instruction booklet? Sorry an obvious question.

I have yes, for days lol. Found lots and lots of information on the watch, just no instructions, well no instructions for this exact model although i have instructions for other makes that are supposed to have same movement but nothing works.
I shall continue tho.

Thanks

Frustrating! I had a hell of a time finding a manual online for my Microtimer.

Maybe even a good indie watch repair shop who might take a bit more time to talk to you?
