Glue doesn't sound right to me.

isn't that bearing holded by a screw?

It's a press fit. I had the same issue with my KW312

Maybe some blue loctite will work,when i press it down it sits there,but after a day or 2 its loose again.

Whatever you do, do NOT use cyanoacrylate...the fumes will dry out the oils in the mvmt.

How did you go with this??? I had the same problem with the same watch.. Not sure if i should send it back to the dealer or not for repair or try to get it fixed locally...

Bear in mind that I would never suggest what I'm about to for a genuine movement of any kind. One way you might keep that decorative plug in the hole would be to take a punch and put some slight holes on the sides of the plug kind of towards the middle which will raise metal around the holes. You could then push it in the hole and it would fit tighter and not be seen. The problem would be when you needed to get the plug out to get to the screws that actually hold the rotor on...
