mendota Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 Can anyone give me advice on the best way to deal with the vintage PAM strap holding bars and the tiny screws that secure the bars. I have spent hours on one change of straps. The other more frequent spring bar or screw mechanism isn't bad, but the watches with the two bars that come out at right angles and go into each side of the strap give me trouble, both on getting the best sequence of steps to get the strap on, and then to deal with those tiny screws. Any hints would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victoria Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 and then to deal with those tiny screws. Any hints would be appreciated. Mendota, it seems to me you are talking of Radiomir straps because of the little screws. Here are two videos. The first is by the Greek "V", and the second is by a non-RWG'er, TTBOMK. Radiomir watches have fussy, horrible little screws, and I've spent hours looking for them on my carpet. Use a white towel or similar, whenever you are changing straps. However, once you have practise, fear not. It's easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highflyingclive Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I have been driven to distraction by Radiomir strap-changing, too! So here is my handy hint: Make sure that you replace the lug-wires and their screws in the holes that they came from. Don't get them mixed up... sometimes the wires are not identical.
