ProZac Posted May 15, 2007 Report Posted May 15, 2007 I just received my Hublot Big Bang SE. It got one flaw, a yellow dot on the dial, I can live with it. It also shows on Joshua
jfreeman420 Posted May 15, 2007 Report Posted May 15, 2007 I don't have one, but some watches don't have a screw down crown. It has nothing to do with the movement.
rogerthat Posted May 16, 2007 Report Posted May 16, 2007 Hublot Big Bang both rep and gen, doea not have a screw down crown. As stated above, has nothing to do with movement or crono, usually it has to do with the water proof-ness of the watch. The gen HBB is not a divers watch, not sure if it 100m or exactly what it is but most watches with screw down crowns will exceed these depth. Don;t know if anyone has tested their reps for water proof. Cheers, M Ok, can somebody confirm that BB doesn
ProZac Posted May 16, 2007 Author Report Posted May 16, 2007 Thanks for the info. One of the screws is gone missing 10 minutes after I received it. Anyone solved this issue? Glue?
tonton2000 Posted May 17, 2007 Report Posted May 17, 2007 Thanks for the info. One of the screws is gone missing 10 minutes after I received it. Anyone solved this issue? Glue? a little bit of Loctitie should do the trick
pv007 Posted May 19, 2007 Report Posted May 19, 2007 Remove all the screw around the bezel (you can do it with a springbar remover) Put a very little of loctite this is important as you cannot tighten the screw there are too much thin and they can break if you tighten to much As soon as you have put loctite, gently tighten (NOT TOO MUCH!!!) your screws And you won't lose anymore your screws
Joey Posted May 19, 2007 Report Posted May 19, 2007 So sorry about my english but could you tell me what is loctite ? Thank you so much Joe
pv007 Posted May 19, 2007 Report Posted May 19, 2007 loctite is a sort of glue for screws - "Lock Tight" a small liquid that tighten all screws without fixing them forever
Highflyingclive Posted May 19, 2007 Report Posted May 19, 2007 You can buy thread-lock liquid in any motorcycle shop. Loc-Tite is just one brand name. It comes in various grades.
Mo_till Posted May 28, 2007 Report Posted May 28, 2007 What grades of Loctite would you recommend for the screws?

I'll try it later and see if it works on the H-shaped screws! lol and here i was wondering where the hell to get an H-screwdriver also, does anyone have a specific loctite edition in mind? i did a quick amazon search and came with a lot of hits -.- anyone got a link for what to use?
