Oddly enough I just took off my sweater about an hour ago and I could feel a string pull in the sleeve. Sure enough it caught on the pearl of my BB and pulled it right off, which fell into white carpet. Luckily after 15 minutes of searching I found it. Now to re-attach. It appears most people suggest Hypo Cement.
Glad to see there are options for replacement pearls if my re-attach doesn't hold too well.
I like the way divers look without a pearl for some reason. I've seen several gens out in the wild without a pearl; makes me think they are used for more than desk diving.
Lost my pearl yesterday on my BB blue..... Thanks for HR link guys. Had not worn it in a while...I kind of like the look of no pearl...maybe I'll put on a strap and go with vintage look.
I have a rep insert i ordered a while ago and didn't end up using. if one of you guys Need it. Pm me. It's not an after market one, but from the rep factory.
