I have a screw loose...on the bracelet that is.

Seems my ROC has managed to get one of the link screws loose and it back out a bit.

1) What size screwdriver do I need to tighten it back?
2) Should I use something on the pins like loctite?

Basically I am really concerned that if this happens again, the watch would go flying off my wrist and I will have a heart attack.

Thanks

1.6mm screwdriver and a little loctite or clear nail polish will help.

You sure about 1.6?

I have a 1.6mm for Panerai straps and it was a bit too big. I was thinking 1.4mm.

My BB and RO both take 1.6mm. I can't see the ROC being different. It is a tight fit but that's preferred as it prevents damaging the screw's slot.

not sure on driver size. i know the screws in my diver are way smaller than my panerai. here is what i do. i check the screws by feel and visually very frequently. that said on a flight to vegas once i noticed a screw backing out of a panerai buckle. so NOW i carry a screwdriver in my shave kit. problem solved. nail polish works but i rarely use that. but i hear its a good idea quit often.

I stand corrected. My RO is 1.4mm so the ROC is probably 1.4mm as well.

Ok thanks I'll get te 1.4 and put them on nail polish. Thanks

1.4mm and purple loctite.
