Before I pull the trigger on it, how is the quality of the lug screws for the 388 v2?

I'm caught up in the Pam addiction again, selling my sub v4 to fund a Pam [emoji28] [emoji28]

Can't find any other Pam that resembles the Gen with the least flaws.

I got the KW 388 V2 with seagull, didn't cause any problems so far, although one of the crews did got lose once. So do check them every week.

Locktite is your friend. And change your straps over a Tupperware container so you don't lose screws. Go slow and don't cross thread. I turn the screw counter-clockwise til I feel the start of the thread and then turn to tighten. There are quite a few super rep PAMs though mate. 388 is just one of them.

I just got my KW 388 in. Instantly lost a screw while swapping the strap for the first time. Ordered a replacement rad lug set from panatime, very happy with their set. It was $15, comes with all the pieces. Or screws are 2 for $5.

Oh and the 388 is one of the classiest, most well finished watches I've ever seen.

Is it safe to assume rep watch band screws are interchangeable w/ gen screws? Of course, the ones sold by Ofrei and on ebay/amazon aren't OEM but are meant to fit a gen.
