I'm no expert but it could be a tolerance issue? Try mix and matching the pins/links to see if you get better fitment with different combos
They all look the same and they were in fact quite tight before I pushed them out the first time.

Can you maybe put a slight bend in one of them or hit it with a chisel and Hammer to flatten out a small section of it and create additional resistance? Otherwise last option would be to put a small amount of epoxy on the end of the one side.

V2 the latest version

Gosh I hope APS changes the rotor color to rose gold soon like in gen because this yellow gold is just way off once you've seen gen pics...
The rotor of mine, which I received just last week, is rose gold and with the correct font.

Guess I was kinda "lucky", since my original watch was seized and I had to receive a new one... probably from a updated batch. Took four months in total 🙃

I know this has been discussed before but I just wanted to give my option. After staring at the gap on the bezel screws all the time I decided to pull the trigger on new ones. Overall very happy with the figment, although a few of them sit just a hair proud. Nothing too noticeable. Yes I know these were about $230, but I think it was a nice improvement. 1st photo is from QC and the green background ones are the after. Also these are from watch2parts.com

Been debating on if this was worth the expense. Looks good. When tightened, are they flush to are they slightly sunken?

For me about 5/8 are flush and 3/8 are just a hair above the bezel. The ones that are proud are barely noticeable when i run my finger across them.

Well, that does look good! Nicely done. I'll have to retry this on my other 26240.

So I got my black ceramic today. I've pushed out the pins, the tension/friction loops also came out with it. Sized the bracelet for my wrist, but when I try and get the loops back in they keep coming out with light taps, the pin stays in place but it doesn't require much force to poke them out either.

Please tell me what do I do?
Have you found a solution? I'm in the same boat, I stopped and cannot find a solution.
