New Portuguese 7 days

[haleao]

Thanks! Actually it is red liner. It is from Orloff and the quality is just awesome for the price. You can email him and he got some stock strap ready to ship.

I also bought one V2 RG from Toro. Noticed that "10" is bit crooked, but as these are all like that I accepted without complaining. At least other numbers are not so crooked as on many others I have seen here.

They seem to have problems with crooked numbers on the 7 days as on the Spitfire. Since this is anything but rocket science, does anyone have an idea why ZF just doesn't seem to be able to get it right?

The watch I've been wearing everyday for months now, the buckle just had the bolt fall out, luckily I noticed where it fell. Anyone suggest the best adhesive to use to stick it back in, it goes in but will come off again I'm sure of it, so I'd like to permanently stitck it down:

Can't you just get a new deployant? I would feel a lot more safe with a new one.

I probably will, but in the meantime, must be a way to secure it. I would imagine i was unlucky to just have one with a lose bolt.

I'd just superglue it in the mean time until you get a new deployant.

Yeah I'm gonna superglue it then lol. [emoji2]

I am sure one of the loctites will be the best bet

Hopefully I have some, otherwise I'll grab some tomorrow.

Anyone else had this before? I have lots of iwc with deployants and first time for me.

 

[noctus]

You`re welcome, if you cant get 638 you can also use 648 , same result .

Yeah, Loctite will do the work.

 

[aligborat69]

I had the pin come off a gen and had it laser welded back on but it only lasted a couple of days. The gen does not have such a deep hole to press the pin into so no chance of glueing. Loctite might work but there is such a small surface area I think you will be lucky if it holds for very long. Worth a try though, but be careful when undoing the clasp as that is when the pressure is put on the pin.

If this actually happens on a gen, then this isn't too bad then!

I'll try the loctite idea otherwise I'll swap the clasp over. Not a huge deal [emoji2]

Don't think it is very common but a lot more expense if it happens!

Can I be bit thick here. Been looking for an ardoise dial but only see grey on Td's. Is this the same?

I think TDs call it grey, but yes it's the ardoise.

Looks amazing when it's in good light
