[kevblah]

wanted to update this thread and thank all of you for your input

my loctite arrived 3-4 days ago, but the screwdriver just arrived in the mail today

applied loctite and tightened down the screw, has been tight for the last 6 hours.

Thanks for the heads up. I will put this on my monthly check list.

I saw a screw loose and protruding from my 116200 63600 while my arm was hanging out the window at a stoplight. I'd just picked the watch up that morning at the AD.

I drove directly to the AD, as I was less than a mile away, and had the watchmaker fix the problem. He was quite embarrassed, but, as they say, no harm, no foul.

It's just a good thing that I glanced into my side-view mirror and saw the screw glistening in the sun or it could have been catastrophic.
