Mills 10 Report post Posted October 19, 2011 After reading lots of posts about Radiomir screws dropping out, I finally lost a case screw from my 288. I noticed on Panatime that they have this http://www.panatime.com/setof2scforr.html . Would that work OK? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PeteM 319 Report post Posted October 19, 2011 Yes mate, I replaced mine with Panatime set Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mills 10 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 Thanks for the advice Pete. Ordered from Panatime and arrived today. Damn quick service. The $20 shipping charge was way too annoying for just a couple of screws and bars so I had to pad the envelope out with a new strap ;-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Could you please confirm if both the lugs and the lug screws from Panatime are a perfect fit on the 288k or not. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mills 10 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 I'll find out tomorrow as I'm away from home. Pete did the same and they fitted great, I hope I get the same result. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PowerShot 8 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 do people know if they work for 292k also? I'm missing one screw Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mills 10 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 Same thing happened to me with just the one damn screw missing. What I've read about the 292 though, sounds like that is your first of four to go as the rep screws simply don't stay in. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Watchiwant 0 Report post Posted October 27, 2011 I had the same issue with the 288K. Got the screws from Robert at Panatime and they fit and work like a charm. Hats off to Robert/Panatime for excellent customer service and reasonable prices. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mills 10 Report post Posted October 28, 2011 do people know if they work for 292k also? I'm missing one screw If you PM me your address, I'll pop a spare screw over to you. It will be the rep ones I'm taking out but should see you through. BTW if you want to buy the panatime screw set which will work on your 292, go here http://panatime.com/scallsc.html , down in the bottom right for just the screws or the bars as well.

Mills 10 Report post Posted October 28, 2011 Quick update on this. I got home and installed the bars. They are a right bugger to get installed but now my watch is nice and solid again. The Panatime strap I ordered at the same time was quickly installed onto my 005 and I'm impressed with the workmanship. Panatime worked out great for me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

watch.aholic 4 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 ^^^ The screw must be in steel that you put on your 292? Did you blacken it by any chance? If yes, can you tell us how? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mills 10 Report post Posted November 12, 2011 pleased to hear you got them installed mate. Great watch, good luck with the screw situation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PowerShot 8 Report post Posted November 14, 2011 @watch.aholic yes the screws are steel and I didn't try to blacken them As I'm the only one to see the back it's not really bothering me. @Mills As already said thanks a million for your gesture, I'm enjoying it every day since I received the screws :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cromodora 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2011 To me it happened for second time, but now I am missing a part of lug as well. Does anyone have an idea where can I get one?
