Need replacement Radiomir screws! And a scary drop story.

[NeedMoreCoffee]

Hey All,

I guess you get what you pay for because my aftermarket replacement screws from Panatime aren't holding the bar in correctly. Upon very scientific review (my eyeballs) they appear a bit too short and the finishing is a bit different than OEM. Can anyone recommend a good source for Radiomir bar screws?

Backstory here is I was wearing my PAM384 (ceramic, mind you) and all of a sudden my wrist felt light. I look to my left and see my watch dangling from my hip (wrist was against my jeans, so barely holding the strap in place). After an immediate "expletive" reaction I carefully reached my right hand over, making sure not to move my left hand, and grabbed the watch. Any movement, or if I didn't notice, and my ceramic would have fallen about 3ft to the concrete floor.

Lesson learned...don't skimp out on the screws that are keeping your ceramic PAM hanging on for dear life.

You may have to go to a boutique.

I needed a screw for a tang buckle...initially they told me to send it to Panerai Service center...but later relented and let me mail in the buckle and stripped screw to the store. They kindly sent a replacement screw -and my buckle back -after that.
