coliver18 Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Are there any mods that routinely fix the dreaded stripped crown/tube? I love my PO but never wear it anymore because I'm afraid I'll ruin it. Sucks too, b/c it's modded to teh gills. Superlume, gen hands, gen bracelet, gen rubber strap. the only thing I hadn't gotten around to was fixing the Omega logo on the dial.

marrickvilleboy Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Only thing is getting genuine crown and tube. You will need to make it fit however. I've had my PO for almost 1 year now and have yet to encounter any issues with the crown - just be gentle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 You can get the genuine Tube/crown from Ofrei .. but the tube needed to be glued in to the rep case.. Ziggy did mine.. I did it for preventive maintenance.. so I would not have a problem down the road.. the genuine parts are very affordable the genuine crown does differ just slightly from the rep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andreww Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I got two sets of crowns and tubes for about $60 as I recall. The repair itself is fairly easy (once I found a proper adhesive). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coliver18 Posted February 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 Thanks all. Since my skills, or lack thereof, are pretty limited, I guess I'll inquire with The Zigmeister once he starts taking appointments again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
