I jsut received a PAM 111n from a member , it has 6497 movement.
when i got it, i wound it up, it wouldnt tick, so I wound it to the maximum, it still wouldnt work
However, if i wound it halfway more, and held the crown past resistance, it would run normally.
I opened teh CB and unwound the entire thing (by holding the clickwheel freely) but that didnt seem to solve anything.
The stem screw is too tight and i cant get it to unscrew so i havent done anything else with that.
additionally, while holding the clickwheel and letting the main gear unwind freely, the gear seemed to be very sluggish, sometimes even stopping. on top of that, when winding, the crown resets back to its "neutral" position very slowly whereas people are telling me its supposed to "snap" back.
