Panerai PAM111 Stripped Pin/screw

[cw_ek9]

Hi everyone

I've had my Pam111 for about 2 years and I think I stripped the screw holding the strap and watch together. I bought a replacement set from ebay, but for some reason it wouldn't screw in all the way. I ended up reaching out to the dealer whom I bought it from and he sent me another set of screws as well. Unfortunately that did not work either. Would you guys know how to fix this? Would any watch repair shop know how to repair it? Please advise. Thanks!

Why don't you get those custom Panerai spring bars instead? Can be found on eBay as well and not that expensive. Subsequently will be much easier to change straps and it looks exactly like the original screws.

Thanks for the help guys! Ordered. Didn't not something like this existed. I thought I would have to drill something or cut the pin shorter :/
