Hi All

Can anyone tell me if the Genuine screws work and if so, what screwdriver is required for this 44mm case? Is it the 1.4mm or 1.6mm? I tried a standard jeweller screwdriver after one case loose and it was too big to fit the slot on the screw head.
Thanks!

If you have a PAM111H, which is a far cry from the current crop of PAM111, which are mostly gen spec, I can't be sure about gen screws compatibility with the watch. As for the crown guard screws, you can use the 1.6mm screwdriver you use for the lug screws for the crown guard although it's been mentioned in Risti forums that the CG screwdriver is 2.5mm.

Not sure where you got the H-series from. Noob V3/V4s are typically N-series onwards. Anyway, since it's Noob V4, gen screws would most likely fit.

The H series i had a very long time ago, i just assumed it was the same as the Noob. I definitely have the V4 noob. Ill order some Gen screws and a driver.

as you have been here far longer than me (curiously with so few posts), I would presume you know about the Jimmy Fu cases which were said to be OEM spec. But as even Panerai has been known to make changes that have visual impact (like AR) they can also make changes that would not affect gen owners such as assembly parts like the CG screws. If you're going to purchase gen CG screws (not sure why you'd bother with them but it's your choice) look for those that are at least the same series as your Noob PAM for maximum potential fit.

Well it's not really relevant now as current PAMs are mostly gen spec out of the box. Gone are the days of Jimmy Fu, Eddie Lee and Little Hero (not sure if you even know of the two latter names if Jimmy Fu does not ring a bell. :lol: ).

Nup dont know any of them :) I guess we'll see if the screws fit. I ordered a screwdriver and hollowground tip from Ofrei. Take the punt, love a gamble :p
