Does anyone know what screw size I should order and from where?
I just got the DJ41 on the Jubilee bracelet (Ref: 126300) and resized it myself. My screwdriver was a touch too big and sort of stretched out the screws. It's locked in well and barely noticeable but slightly bothers me purely from an aesthetic perspective. I would like to order new screws and re-screw them in so it looks a little cleaner. Can anyone help me with:
1. What Screw size do I need to find and order? Not screwdriver, but actual screws. 2. What screwdriver size I need to buy? I think it should be 1.4mm? 3. Any recommendations on how and where to get it? Do I request directly from an AD? Do they even do it? Maybe just a basic watch repair shop? |

Call RSC , tell them which watch and bracelet. They should be able to get them to you. I think they may be 1.4mm, but ask RSC. Also, you will need the correct size and type of screw driver, o4 it will happen again.
Lots of threads here about correct screw driver size and type. Kat Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk |

I'll assume you will have removed a link when you resized it - which means you already have spare screws.

Your AD can order them for you. You will not be able to order them from RSC over the phone yourself. If an RSC is nearby, you can make an appointment, and they’ll sell you the screws, install them on the spot, and dispose of the old ones. Good luck

Just know replacement screws might not sit as perfectly flush. The ones you have now were finished on the bracelet. I'd still change them and in the future use the right tools.
