Hello,

I just bought a PAM111M from Sead last week. The watch is absolutely amazing, really stunning! Unfortunately, just 3 days later the crown guard fell off. I especially tighten the screws upon receive, to make sure they will not unscrew, but... yesterday while driving I was enjoying my watch, on a sunny day the watch looked so amazing, the AR is great, no tint, or at least I could not see it, so a bit later I took a look at my watch and noticed the crown guard was missing, I was wearing a short sleeve shirt, so no chance to hook on sleeve or something. I wonder if the slight vibration of the steering wheel might have contributed to the screws being unscrewed and the crown guard fell? I searched the car, it's a big SUV but no luck finding it :frusty::frusty::frusty:
Do you guys know if I can find a replacement CG for the Noob's 111M?? I'm searching the sales section here trying to source a new CG but I don't know if other version would fit?
I'm using this as a chance to worn all forum members here that it is possible to loose your CG, unfortunately my joy of the new watch disappeared. I cannot wear it now and it is so very sad as I really love the watch.
If possible please share advice on how to proceed from here? I contacted my dealer asking him to source me a new one from the factory but no answer yet. Sead is a great guy and I hope he would help me!

you should check if the threads are worn 1st b4 purchasing the screws..if the threads are worn out, no point finding the screws cux they'll just drop out again..

as for CG screws, if Sead cant get them for you, you might want to check Panatime out.. they MAY fit..

Actually, I checked the threads and they are OK. I found only one of the screws but the crown guard itself is missing. I checked Panatime, they have a set of 2 screws, problem is that I don't know if they will be the same length as the the one from the Noob factory so they won't stick out. Any idea if another version of 111 crown guard would fit?

I think you should wait for Sead's reply.
Then if you have no solution try other ways.
Please assure, by your found screw that the threads are OK like Chromed says. No solution if they are not OK !!

Thank you mate!
I wrote to Sead, he assured me he will find it for me after the Chinese New Year celebration is over. It is great doing business with him. I checked threads by screwing the only one screw I found and they are OK.
