Thanks much!

Hi all, I've noticed that most of my reps coming from china have an industrial, almost smokey smell. Esp the leather ones. Any idea on how to get rid of that smell? Other than a gen strap?

Thanks guys. I'm in mass, USA. I've had luck with irolexu before. Thx

I tried in March. He said he had nothing. any other ideas?

Hi there I have a Bp dssd that I got from trusty. I've had the pearl fall out a number of times. Anyone know where I can source replacements?

Hi there Anyone have any spare or replacement pearls you're willing to sell? I've got a bp dssd ceramic that the pearl keeps getting knocked off...if you don't have any onhand, any recommendations where I might find one? The raised pearl and my wrist movement don't seem to mesh... Thanks in advance

Pt said to send it back if I wanted and they would repair but they also said someone local would be a better choice. Attached is the pic of the wrench. Is there a trick? Like is it reverse threaded?

Ok, I took it to the watch guy. He can't seem to get the case off. So I went on eBay and bought a case back wrench for 44mm Pam's. He still can't get it to work. Any ideas? Are there special wrenches I'm not aware of?

Ironically I emailed Andrew last night and this morning he got the watch. Go figure.

Ok. I haven't talked to him except to give him tracking info when I sent it and he agreed to fix. I'll give it another week and then I'll reach out to Andrew as well. Thanks guys.

Hi all, I got a PVD coated DSSD from trusty recently that stopped working. In hindsight I should have brought it to a watch smith but I sent it back registered. It looks like it made it to Guanzhou and the last updated in the system is 12/3. I don't think I have much recourse because the value for customs purposes was intentionally left low per Trusty's instructions. Should I write it off and try again? When should I give up all hope it will make it back to the dealer? Thanks

@peteM, thanks for the advice. I'll poke around. I hate to be one of those guys, and I like to tinker with things like electronics but I feel like my giant clumsy paws will just mess this up. Maybe I'll get myself a used clunker and experiment...

Now I know I don't have the balls to do that!

Thanks guys. It looks like such a daunting thing to remove the crystal. I have a local watch maker down the street who's pretty reasonable. I guess I'll just talk to him...

Hey all, I finally received my much sought out Pam 441 from puretime yesterday. Mind you the qc pics were fine. But unfortunately after open in the package the second hand isn't attached and is rolling around in the case. I have an email into PT but what good options do I have? I suppose I could send it back and risk losing it for months or forever. Can I demand a replacement before I return this one? Is it a simple fix for a watchmaker? Thanks as always.
