Try Getat or Militarytime (JacksonTse), both do homage watches and parts. Tse does one with screws for around $10 with free shipping http://www.jacksontse.com/mm087.html Just e-mail for his price. I've used him for a cg and a swan neck movement ($35 shipped) each time was a faultless transaction. Check out his and Getats sites if you're a Pam, IWC lover...;)

Replacement CG 's from jacksontse

Is it my imagination, or are the replacement CG's on the jacksontse site those stubby chopped off ones ?

... And you have to mention that the lever that you need is the downward direction same as your broken CG, not upward just like the CG in the jacksontse link posted by sconehead.

OMG what the crap happened?!

Coldi...don't ask......I sold this watch to PCSAM.

I tried to do the CG Pin mod, and well....failed miserably.
The pin wouldn't go back fully and I was a bit forceful with a hammer!

Luckily the rest of the watch is perfect, so once the CG is switched over it will look like new again :cute:

This is why I was asking before if anyone mods CG's in the UK....I had no reply at the time so I assume there isn't :)

the watch arrived at 1pm on the dot :wideeyed: thanks mate .....
well I had a look at the damage to the c/g and after a strap change ( the only 26 mm strap i had ) i decided ill give it a go at a repair .:err:
I have never done this kind of stuff on a watch before , but as the c/g was so badly damaged and I had one on order for it i got my diamond files out (£5 for the set ebay) and got stuck in :screwed:
after about 35mins I gave up and put it back on the watch .
it has helped a bit but a big difference to what it was 30 mins ago :wideeyed:

That is a very big difference indeed....I promise to stay away from any tool in the future!
Post a pic once you get the new CG too...

Did you contact DSN and see if he could source one? Maybe if UK based member is order a watch soon you could add it in with their order and pay for the shipping to you or something. Just an idea :)
