PAM111 Noob V4 - Can’t Wind - Ideas?

[nathan92]

Hey gang,

Was winding my PAM111 to wear this evening. I normally give it about 35-40 turns so as to avoid overwinding. Something happened in this instance and I heard a subtle snap. The crown is relatively loose now and it’s stuck on time setting mode. I’m guessing some part within the movement has broken. Any ideas on what this part is, how to fix myself or if it’s not as simple someone on the boards who I can send to/cost to repair - worth repairing? Piece is relatively new, received in September.

Thanks all. Merry Christmas!

Take a clear and nice sized picture of the caseback.

mysterio on mobile so having some direct upload issues but a couple of good angles via link above. Thanks for your time!

I can open the link just fine. From what I can see (and what I suspected) the micrometric screw is missing from the movement. It must have gone into the movement. Best ot take it out quickly before it does any further damage.

mysterio thanks for checking it out. After some research not sure what that part is or where to see it within the movement (or rather where it should be). I was going to get it serviced soon. Is it something that can be fixed? I don’t have any issues taking a stab at it but if it’s something better left to the pros all for paying someone else.

I would suggest taking it to be repaired. A service would be the next logical step anyway.
