Hi All,

Well this is my first post but I have been lurking for a while, so hi!

Anyway after much deliberation a brought myself a PAM 372 noob superclone and this thing is awesome! I have been very impressed with, but a few days ago I had a bit of a problem, I was sitting on a plane when the plexiglass popped under the lower pressure and detatched itself from the watch (luckily the people in the seats behind me managed to find it 30 minutes later.. :)

So i suppose my question is has anyone else had this issue, I am not sure whether to send it back or find a rep friendly watch maker in the UK to sort it out (there is a finger print and dust between the poorly replaced screen and the face now)

Cheers

Tim

Just clean, and press the crystal back in.

I already pushed it back in so would need to get it out before I can clean it... Any idea how to do that?

It will need to be disassembled and pressed back out with a crystal press. They can be had on eBay for cheap.

Anyone has an idea if the PAM 372 decorative backplates on the movement are glued on or screwed on?
Im guessing glued on but not sure about it.

I cant access the movement tab and screws =\

Yes, they are glued on. unfortunately you have to "peel" them off first to get at the movement tabs.

Thanks for the useful information, I will leave it as at then for the time being. :(
