    Is it just me or the hand on the seconds subdial shorter?

    The sala example has different H&M hands but from what I know UG did not have very strict models and different hands could be found on a same watch...(?)
    Also, as far as they are in gold, it was ok for me

    Well-spotted, aapalileo, the seconds hand is shorter than the others but curiously, exactly the same shade of blue. I should probably leave it be.

    The good. Aside from the couple of dirt specks above 2 and fading of 150, the silver dial is pristine and much prettier than the over-exposed photo depicts. The mark on the crystal above 12 and 1 does not seem to be a crack.

    The bad. The chrono seconds hand stops after the first 45 seconds, jamming the whole movement. Undisclosed by WoK. Not that I have a recourse?

    What could be the problem? Hope a routine service will sort it out.

    Pics!
