Blackbay pearl source

[spazthecat]

Hi,

Was wondering if anyone knew a source for replacements pearls for the Blackbay?

I got one this week and after a day the pearl popped off and I can't find it.

Thanks,

Andy

Is there a potential problem? Should the pearl be fixed/glue'ed to avoid loosing it? How can it be fixed?

Mine fell too. Apparently ZF doesn't sell parts (which is bad considering his shoddy build quality), I shipped mine over to China to have it replaced and it was lost in transit :thumbup:

Sorry for thread hijacking but is there any reference for fixing the pearl like what type of glue should be used ? I have a similar situation with another watch

Hi,

I'm not sure if there is a reference for fixing a pearl. If I can get a replacement, I was just going to use superglue. I can see how getting just the pearl could be problematic. I'm hoping I can at least track down the entire bezel insert. I've emailed the TD that I got it from to see if they could help locating a source for the pearl or bezel insert. If I come up with anything I'll post to this thread.

Otherwise, I guess I'll start looking around at places like Cousins or maybe Yuki for a pearl. It won't be the correct one, but at least I won't have a hole there.....

Thanks,

Andy

You can try to source a gen bezel. They come up from time to time.

As far as sourcing a rep pearl, I don't recall seeing anything that comes close.
