Thanks so much, Bazz. I got the movement fixed. Saves me 30 bucks for sending out for repair. This is great experience, and I enjoyed the disemablings and resemblings so much. Merry X'mas folks.

What a great tutorial, thanks so much Bazz. But I wonder why it is necessary to remove the metal piece covering the hour wheel for pushing the keyless work back into place? Is this step mandatory? Sorry for my ignorance, but I am learning a lot here.

Thanks a lot. BTW, any how idea how to put the datewheel onto the movt. The one on mine fell off also.

Has anyone got their Sub LV relumed with SL? What should be the right colour? C1 or others? Will it be easy to overdoing the lume onto the silver rims? Thanks guys and Merry X'mas!

This is exactly what I hav done today. What I have to do to restore movt back to working? It can now nether wind nor hands adjustment. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am about to do the spray, but shall I use matt or semi-gloss coat? Which one is the best match for the PAM dial? BTW, I have seen another issue here. Does the subdial need to be protected as it seems glossy in nature. If yes, what is the best way and how to cover it up? It is very hard to make the exact size circular masking. Thanks.

Which brand of spray will give the best result? Thanks

No experts can shed in some light for me?

Thanks avitt. Where do you get the Ryobi compound?

Great tutorial. I have playing with the DW case for quite some time now. The question still remains how to make a mirror finish on the polish surface. I use the green rouge with the dremel, but trust me it is extremely hard to make a 100% scratch-free finsih like the ex-factory spec. Any other suggestions?

Anyone got the idea how to restore the satin finish on the PAM dail surface? Some part on mine has gone glossy.

Anyone knows how to remove the PAM 44mm sapphire from the case. Really have no clue where to start.

Often I read about different PAM series has different CG style. Understand A-H are the same, but the latest PAM have different ones, what are differences actually? BTW, are there any sources that can reference what PAM model belong to which series? What is the series for PAM172? Thanks.

Which glue is best for attaching the subdial hand? Will CS Hydro Cement do the job? Mine has fallen off!!! Sahll I apply the glue from the backface of the dial or from the front surface?

You are comparing a Twinlock on the gen. with the Triplock on DW's. They are not the same.

Just wonder what kind solvent is used for cleaning the parts and gears during servicing the movement. Am I correct to use white petroleum (as used in lighters) for this purpose?

OMG!!!!!!!! Must pull the trigger now. BTW, how does the lume look. It is always not easy to do when there are sliver rims around the markers.

Randy, What are the flaws?

Anyone knows if the lugs on the gen. are polished or brushed? I believe all those come with the reps have a dull finish.

Does this insert look good? How does it compared with the gen.? LV INSERT

Lume can be done easily. Date window shape I see no chance. Coming to the cross, has nayone really tried out the transplant from the Silix dial?

I always have these questions in mind for this VC Oversea: 1. Is the date window in the correct position? 2. The date fonts are correct? 3. The triangular shapes on the bracelet is exactly the same as that on the gen.? I really love this watch but these queries still holding me back from pulling the trigger for a long time.

Yeah, I have the same question/worry.

Then how to put the bezel back?????? Think there is mechanical/spring fitting behind, right?

Anyone got the idea how to remove the pearl on the bezel insert? Is it necessary to take out the whole bezel insert to replace with a new pearl? Use any kind of glue? Thanks.
