I found the source of the problem on mine, the screw has bad thread, that's why it can't tighten properly! I took out the other screws and found only 1 had thread all the way to the top of the screw. The other 2 screws, thread was worn out and not all the way to the top. I could keep turning it and it would not get tight! Also the lug PVD coating is very badly done! I agree to the petition for H-factory to rectify this problem and sell us the screws and lugs! Waiting for my screws to arrive but unfortunately, lugs are not available for sale from the maker! How sad!

I have the same problem as yours. Received my 292k recently, I noticed one side of wire lugs was loose, so I tighten it. Few days later, it became loose again, so I tighten it again. Today my watch fell out while wearing as the wire lugs fell out.

Just wanted to update, watch is back from Angus. Pretty fast in my opinion. Thanks Angus!!

Thanks all for the feedback! Watch is on it's way back to Angus! There's quite a number of members having problems with this 359 movement! Hopefully it will be a permanent fix this time and no more surprises! Will keep you all posted if anything! Cheers!

Thanks all for the feedback! Here's the funny thing, today the watch died for the 3rd time. I shook the watch and moved the rotor, the seconds hand started moving, so it is winding the watch. SO I can't figure out why it stops after every 40 hours or so when I'm wearing it daily. Planning to send it back to Angus!

Hi Richard, The rotor seems to be winding ok. I don't see any wobble, and it rotates very easily. Any other way for me to check? I can't and don't have any expertise or tools to open the caseback btw. How did you find out that yours was loose and not winding correctly? Thanks for sharing with pics. Regards

Glad to know yours is working perfectly. Mine seems to be operating like a self winding rather than an automatic!

Hi There! I just received my PAM359 few days ago from Puretime! I wound it initially about 30 times to get it going, everything was running fine, I was wearing it and it was keeping good time. ABout 1 and a half days later, it ran out of juice while I was wearing, as if the rotor is not winding it. SO I wound it up again, reset the time, and same thing happened again today while wearing. It seems to function more like a mechanical watch rather than an automatic! Anybody have this issue with this movement? (Asian 7750 automatic movement at 28800vph with pltinum plated rotor) Any Advice?? Please help!! Thanks
