Thanks for your replies. I've been doing some research and it seems most of what I have read suggests the same solution as you guys. I do not, however, have the confedence of opening the watch and giving it a try myself. I will probably just [censored] the watch up completely by not being able to reattach the stem or something. I have been trying to find a watch smith in my area (Stockholm) but so far I have had no success. I guess I will make a day of walking from watch smith to watch smith asking if they are willing to work on a replica because Im reluctant sending the watch away. I guess this is the way the cookie crumbles. I am new to this hobby and I realize that I will gradually learn more and eventually learn to fix issues by myself but Im not there by a longshot yet.

Im having problems closing the crown after I have set the time on my pam111 v3 noob. After winding the watch and setting the time it doesn't work to push the crown back using the CG lever. The only way I can click the crown back is by using the CG and push the crown in with my fingers at the same time. I don't know if its normal or not but I tried to push the crown in only using my fingers and It was impossible. The crown feels wobbly and the resistance "outwards" feels like a spring. I have already tightened the crown guard screws with loctite... should I have tightened the crown somehow also? Any advice?

Im with you on that request. I just got my first rep (PAM111 V3) and in a moment of frustration, when trying to secure the screws for the strap with loctite, I abused one of the springs a little more than I should have... I just couldn't screw that thing all the way in which led to a lot of power with the wrong screwdriver... Well... Its in there now.. but it doesn't look like a screw that belongs on a premium watch. So I need to replace it with a new one. Maybe I should go with a screwdriver suited for purpose this time. Anyone wanna sell me?=)
