Hello TRF,

I woke up and noticed the pin in my bracelet is coming out.. should I bring it to a local watchmaker or should I sent it to an official AP dealer to fix it?

What do you guys think?

I’d hammer it back in.

Good one, Ash!

If I’m not mistaken, shouldn’t you be able to screw it back in?

Going to the AD should be the way. But a good watchmaker should be able to handle it without ease.

Seems AP has isues also with their strap/bracelet pins. There were reports of straps coming off divers, another current thread on pins splitting straps...

Screw it back in gently with a steady hand and a small screw driver :)

That came out a lot! Good thing you didn’t lose it. Just get a micro tool and screw it back in carefully.
