..it gets stranger...
Last year when I went out to visit Mackay I brought a very nice dive watch from ASP with me...the second day out there it quit running... I get home 5 weeks later...and it starts running again...
This year as I am leaving on the trip I was going to take a selfwinding automatic with me but decide to take the ASP with me again as it has tritium illumination.....and when I get out there...it fogs up and QUITS AGAIN. Took it to a jeweler in Buhl, Idaho who pulls the strap off and what does he see stocking out of the back...the very fine o-ring seal. The seal was fine before I left...could it have been the altitude?
Jeweler checks the battery and it shows fine...still will not work...
I get home and bring it to a friend whose father was a jeweler and leave it with him... He unscrews the back puts in a new battery and IT WOKS JUST FINE...
It is the last time I bring a watch to Idaho....
