  1. Hi all, Just got a 5002 Big Pilot with a stripped tube. Pulled back off and stem out to see if it's the tube or crown (it's the tube), and noticed that there are no tabs holding the movement or the holder in place. It's free to turn and wiggle around. Had a look at TD pictures and it would seem they come like this from new. Removed the movement and holder from the case and had a look; the case has three slots cut in it and obviously needs a movement holder with three tabs in the correct places. The Top Gun rep has a holder with these three tabs in the correct places, and they're used:- The 5002 and 5004 reps have a different movement and holder that has two cut outs in the holder where there should be two large headed screws to secure the movement to the holder, and nothing securing the holder:- If the movement is loose that would go a way to explaining why the tubes are known for stripping their threads. Is there a drop in movement holder that has the extra cut outs, complete with threaded screw holes, in the correct places to secure it? (so it'd have two for movement > holder as in the pic above without screw holes, and three more for holder > case) Also any suggestions on higher quality movements to drop in? Would obviously need identical DW diameter.
