ryaku Posted July 13, 2006 Report Posted July 13, 2006 Hi guys, soon i'll have a second-hand IWC stainless steel (not titanium) with one chronograph pusher missing. Does anyone here has an extra pusher to sell me? I'm not very confident, perhaps i'd better ask some dealer to source one for me. Thanks for reading

jkerouac Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 One of my GST pushers came off several times. Fortunately I found it each time and finally was able to secure it properly. Based on threads here and elsewhere a lot of GSTs arrived with loose pushers, so I would guess that our dealers have fielded more than one request for replacement parts. That is you best bet. You might also check with a repair shop. These pushers seem fairly generic in design, and a generic replacement might be possible. Of course you'd probably have to replace both in order for them to match. Good luck.
krustybrand Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 I had a very large parts supplier go through their pusher selection with me trying to find a match for the GST. No luck. Best bet is one of our dealers.

Richard Tracy Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 I have yet to experience this .. and keeping my fingers crossed... How about some prevention advice... Is this an un-winding problem ? Or is it' breaking off ?
krustybrand Posted July 20, 2006 Report Posted July 20, 2006 The button simply unscrews itself, Richard. To prevent, you need to remove the movement, then take the buttons off and use a tiny bit of blue loctite to reassemble.
