Sorry to hear that. Be sure to report back when you find a fix. This is my first radiomir, so winding took some getting used to.

Just received mine today. First manual watch - is the crown supposed to stick out like that?

PeterRei · 3/6/15

Nope, you should screw it in.

Tabguy · 3/6/15

Thanks, that did it - I just had to give it a little bit of force to go past that winding spring. Now time to go order some straps!

no mate you shouldn't have to force it. Once is found it's bite it will screw very very easily, just got to fiddle a bit till it does bite.

I've found that if I wind mine up fully, I have to turn the crown the other way a little before it can be pushed in and catch the threads. It's not how hard you can go, it's getting it at the right angle

hi, i just recieve my 292 O
i'm wondering as this is my first radiomir,
to wind it i need first to turn the crowncanti clockwise to release the stem from the locking mechanism right ?
and then what do i need to do
i tried to wind it straight away by turning it clockwise just as my other luminor manual pam .. but it wont move, like something is stuck
but i can turn it anti clockwise and it feels and sounded like it was winding but it never reach the end, like i can turn it anti clockwise for hundred turn and i still dont feel the resistance
if i pull the crown it goes to clock setting time,
can some one help me ? or mine is faulty?
but as for now , the watch is working ok (the second hand is moving)

Pull the crown out then push it back in, then wind clockwise. You should feel solid clicks. One it's fully wound you won't be able to wind it any further.

Just got this QC. What do you think? There's one area on the left side of the watch that has a little hole like it has a bad paint job. Is this possible on a Real Ceramic?

I would definitely ask for a new one. That looks like a void in the ceramic. Not good!

superdopefresh · 13/7/15

yup, TD is getting me a new one. =)

I am looking for exactly this Nato / Zulu strap in the exact same color for my Pam292. Does anyone know the brand? I would appreciate any help :helpsmilie::

And most important: What's the color? Gray or olive green?

i've one 292 O V6F no pig dial
and i;ve noticed that the AR on this watch is real bad i mean i can't even take a good picture of the dial cause the crystal reflect too much reflection if you know what i mean.
i know even in Gen pam the AR is qquite bad
but my Gen 562 is really much better than this V6F 292
is the Gen 292 is the same like this ? or should i send this 292 for AR job to make it more gen like ?

You said gen pam's ar is quite bad. But you also said your gen 562 is much better than the rep 292 crystal ar. So are you saying rep 292's crystal ar is superrrr bad?
