grifter Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hello! I am seeking ideas or advice on removing this lug screw on an AP Diver. The screw just spins. I tried putting pressure on the bracelet to create some resistance but it doesn't work. Thanks in advance for any help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKTime Posted February 5, 2015 Report Share Posted February 5, 2015 I have an AP with the same problem. I bought a really nice strap for mine that I can't even use due to stuck lugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vester71 Posted February 6, 2015 Report Share Posted February 6, 2015 Superglue a screwdriver or even toothpick to the stuck screw and pull it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ephry73 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Superglue a screwdriver or even toothpick to the stuck screw and pull it out. Be careful not to smear the superglue all in there or you'll never get it out. The way I have done it is to take all of the other acres out and wiggle the bracelet while shaking the case slightly. Good luck brother. E Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gemballa Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Or magnetic screw driver maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSTEEL Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 (edited) The superglue and screwdriver works for me, however, if you manage to get the screw head slightly protruding the case profile, using a sharp razor blade, you can usually pop it out.
