andreww Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Well my UPO Lite developed a stripped crown/tube shortly after it arrived and Trusty immediately replaced it at cost, which allowed me to have both the pumpkin and black version of this beautiful watch. Several months back I replaced the crown/tube assembly with gen Omega parts, but the other day after setting the time, you guessed it Another stripped tube. Luckily I had an extra set lying about and today she is good as new, but this is the third tube in less than a year, and I can't even blame this one on the shitty rep part! Is there something wrong with the internally threaded crown/tube design or am I just a victim of bad luck? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakemaster Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Not bad luck. I have built a few POs. And I have had two stems do this. One resulted in the keyless works getting jacked up. Must be some kind of flaw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
