I was using an old iPad and the bookmark had puretimewatch.com NOT the correct one which is PureTime.com

Anyhow, wondering how to get these "H" screws as I am not expecting the ones I ordered from Angus to arrive any time soon. Happy to buy gen and yes, I will tighten up all of the screws - this watch as been out of rotation for the past 3 months waiting for the screws.

Is there another source that anyone can assist with?

Finally a member of this "club" my self!! Received my Hublot Diver 4000m V2 from WI two days ago! What can I say, it's massive and looks great! It has the modified A7750 for continuous running seconds hand.

It will be receiving a ton of wrist time!! Here are a couple pictures!

Are you sure you are giving it a good wind-up after you start the watch. It usually take a good 30-40 turns of the crown to get a good power reserve. Make sure not to turn the crown to fast, also. Some of the gears in the A7750 movement are high-toothed.

Yep 30 turns

I just gave mine a 30 turn windup from a dead start. Going tort it run over night and I will post tomorrow morning how it turns out. That many turn should give me a good 20-30 hours I would think!

Hey jeanmimi! My 4000m has been running for a solid 26 hours now on 35 turns without touching it. I would say get it serviced/re-greased and see how it does. It just may need some TLC!

What about buying the cheapest version at $200, still not the easiest way around it, but if you have some free pennies! Would be able to strip down and sell the case, back, etc etc. I thought about doing this as i need one of the screws for the back.

Well I got REAL tired of waiting for PT to send me 2 screws which I paid for months ago...

So I was able to swap the screw from the strap buckle into the noticeable screw less strap release bar - perfect fit!

Found a small silver screw in my box of bits and thread and screw length fit the buckle spindle. I will paint it black - looks great!

BTW, I loctited every screw. :)

Thats an idea worth trying but remember they can be got for less than $125 if you pick those gaudy versions... afterall its the screws you want really and even if you could buy them seperately by the time you pay and ship them you are probably only talking an extra $60-70 for more spare screws :)

I'm really considering to buy this version, I think that this is a very reliable movement and I'm not sure if the 7750 with the chrono modification to work all time could give some problems.

It's a low beat, a pity, but i prefer a non modified movement. And the price.....
