I sold a watch yesterday to a nice guy from New York.  But didn't look close on the postal code until he said it was the wrong number. No it's to late. Already on the way. 

Will the postage come back or is there something i can do? I had written 12250 but he is in Newburgh 12550 . Everything else is there except the wrong postal code. I treid to contact USPS . But could do  anything  as i from Sweden 

Maybe someone can help me out that from USA.  At least alert them that it's wrong. 

It 4 hours journey for this guy if he should collect it in 12250 Albany 

Is there anything more i can do? Sure it comes back to me and i can send it again . But that could take 3-4 weeks.

If everything else is correct, but the zip is wrong, good ol' USPS will correct it, but it will delay the shipment. I've been the recipient of packages with wrong zip code and it was delayed by two weeks even when tracking showed it arrived at NY distribution center. In my experience, very little can be done at this point except to wait.

That sound good to hear . I will follow the shipment on USPS . Hopping it will be delivered to the owner. I was writing in his email when i did the waybill . Hope USPS can see that and send him an email. No problems if it's a little delayed.  Just hope it won't be sent back to me. or get lost somewhere along the way.

If I'm going to go to the post office, I'll let you know. Then perhaps you can provide me with the tracking number and I can provide it to the USPS. Otherwise, it shouldn't be too much of a delay. The zip-code was put in the address in order to speed things up. The fact that the zip-code you put on will take it to the same vicinity, probably won't cause too much delay. If I see my postman, I'll pick his brain on it. Good luck, rogart63.

Thanks @MrRoundel. Will let you know if there is a trouble with it. It's in transit now. Maybe it will arrive to USA tomorrrow or Monday

My hopes are high after all you guys telling me it will be okay . And hopefully Mr bond will arrive to his new owner soon.

      Never and others. Yes like you I do spend a fair amount of time reading the contents of this forum. I find it better that any other. clear, lucid, no Prima Donas, and most of all an easy access without adverts. All thanks to Mark. God bless you mate. You give so much to many of us. What if? No Mark? Hypothetically. A forum. I did run a forum for a few years. Really enjoyed it, but became so engrossed that it did affect my health. I gave to to others to run. Not been back. It was very successful and rivalled a number of large paying sites. No adverts, no others but me. I did ask and listen to members comments and it worked well.    Costs Having a domain name, £10 annually.  Register the site with a forum company, free. Build the site using the forum company guide lines, free. It looked and ran almost the same a Mark's. All the same facilities. The cost was only £5 per month, but counted visits (views). If I recall, it was that price for 5,000 views. Each extra 5,000 views increased the price by £2 per month. Success was my own personal undoing. From £5 per month initially, it rose to £60 a month and looked like increasing. This was 10 years ago. I could not afford that, and asked it anyone would like to take over and someone did. I would assume that this is the price that Mark is funding for us all. His return is our continued comments on the internet about his course, and the fact that many of the big names on YouTube mention him as their Tutor. Those of us who have done, and are still using, his course, benefit. In comparison to other courses, I can't believe how cheap it is, and the value is exceptional. It is the structure that gives the value. Long may Mark reign. Ross

      Get someone local to tig it ,very easy fix and should only take a few minutes so probably wouldn’t cost much ,or failing that get it very clean and silver solder it. Dell

      Movement inserted from crytal side

      By Zedster · Posted

      Hi, The winding pin is not split, well that's how it was when I obtained the watch. The movement is front-loaded and here's a picture of where the case screws are fitted. The face picture is before I dismantled it. Quick update.  I've always had a nylon ring sitting in the parts try that I wasn't sure where it went and left it to the last thing as I know it must be part of the case assembly. Anyway, looking at the picture in my last post you can see, just under the winding stem, a white-looking object, this is the nylon ring 🤭 So, I had to remove the dial again and replace the ring. Once this was all back together I placed the movement in the case and realized my initial problem maybe is not a problem as it looks like I can screw the movement back in the case and then place the hands as the dial is nearly flush with the outside of the case anyway so I'll be able to check for alignment. if all is good then just fit the crystal and bezel 🤔 I can't think of any issues with this approach but please comment if you think I've not thought of something. Another lesson learned as well. Take more pictures not just of the movement parts and location 😅

      I dont think mine is. Its an idea to have them all in one place if possible, then a quick screenshot will have them saved. Unless anyone has any other ideas of how to reconnect
