Silverspeed 10 Posted May 23, 2011 Could be that the stem release screw was loose....may happened during shipping You can try to Tighten the screw and unscrew it again by 1,5 turn and try to insert the stem again....if that doesn't work the keyless works is probably outligned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gottahaverolex 0 Posted May 23, 2011 The screw definitely wasn't tight. I can't seem to get the stem to reset now. I think my initial wind to get it running and then set the time must have screwed up the keyless works. My luck sucks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Akira 0 Posted May 23, 2011 Close caseback. Robert said the QC on the new PAMs is rubbish. The movements are of inferiority quality. My PAM005 is working perfectly. I'm really sorry for your bad luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
