    Hi everyone. I got my jumbo seamaster back from the watchmaker recently. It was in because the movement was installed incorrectly and it needed a case clamp. When it got back the crown was much tighter and hard to wind. It's not hard to set the time, just hard to wind. Any idea why this might be?

    New crown seals, will likely loosen up over time.

    Pretty common. It'll loosen up over time.
