Bad, Very Bad, the side that doesn't have the stop wall won't secure to the watch.

As long as the other screw tight or both screw tight and it align straight it should be ok. Is it wobbly ?

how can that be ok...you gotta open and close the lever that secures the crown...missing one screw ( whole)
it will constantly lift the CG up and down....and rip it out. just a question of time !

again, i was so looking forward to this watch...need to take it to germany on the 22nd for my buddy- to make sure customs wont seize it - telling Davidsan, hey...please PLEASE !! make sure things are alright this time, cause there will be no time sending it back to you again...!!

his reply...i will take special care this time !

great !!

i am sure he will, i can tell you one thing out of experience...he always fixes his stuff, very reliable...
but still....why not look at the part for 10 seconds before screwing it on ??

this would save all this headache !!

Just when I think I might order one, I hear something new like this. I got one of his original pvd watches. It had the loose unsecured dial problem. I thought his quality control would be good since he "builds" them himself. I will get another one at some point once his track record improves.

my pam111 mod from angus is getting a couple extra mods now....qc was preformed and im expecting the watch on tues.i tried ordering from davidsen,but he would not answer several questions i had about the crown guards and lug screws,so i bought a fully modded with fimmy fu case/bezel,dagger swan neck,super lume sandwich dial,tuscana strap and saphire w/light ar.............. ...question is: what do i do with the 3 pam 111's i have now?? and a 217....not worth much to me now. they wont get any wrist time....pm me if you got an idea on how much i should sell the group for...not sure what they are worth

That sucks HU......kinda makes one think about white lies issues.....if built by and handled by dealer before sent out....the cg shouldnt have been put on the watch....throw away and get good one....they cant cost more than $.10 each when one buys in bulk.....major ...major flaw .....will definitely work its way off watch at some point with wearing.....and cant be fixed.....

Doesnt say much for person who knowingly put that on watch......sounds to me like watches are shipped assembled to dealer and dealer messes around with them a little and then sends out to customer as "hand" built....without inspecting

could be wrong....am often wrong...oh well it still sucks
