| I sent it just wrapped, no strap, wrapped in bubble wrap and box. It came back in one of those nice turtle shell boxes with the zipper all the way around, black, Hamilton log on top. Went thru all the dates, all is good.. There was a note card stating, " Do not change the data between 8pm and 4am..." ____________________________________ | |

| EXCELLENT news Alan ! Looks like Hamilton did a top notch job not only fixing the problem, but sending it back in that neat turtle shell box ! ..I know you have been waiting for this one to come back for a while now, but it seems like everything worked out REALLY well by the looks of it ! ..Honestly seems like Hamilton genuinely cares about their customers. VERY cool ! Congratulations on getting your Below Zero back ! ..Now you can get back to enjoying this one ! ____________________________________ | |

| Shame on you for changing the date between 8pm and 4am. Guess its like they always said, target the lowest common denominator to communicate with. Glad you got your baby back OK and that nice box. Im a sucker for boxes BTW, have a hard time throwing away even nice cardboard ones. Im sick. | |

| Great watch and even changing the date in the danger hours wouldnt have caused what went wrong with that date wheel, maybe they send out that note with all watches repaired due to date wheel! Glad you got it back Alain, its a sweet piece! |

Breitling sends them in the same style box but the name is embossed on the case, but dont think you want your B'ling at BUSA just to get a repair box! Check out ebay guy sell them for around 15-20 bones and they make sweet little travel cases! |

Nice watch, I'm getting one ready to send off, I'll use your technique of taking off the bracelet. I'm new here, is it Alain or Alan? One thing about Hamilton, you know their watches ARE Swiss made because the parts for repair had to come from Switzerland! |
