Inspr05 0 Posted August 18, 2012 The loose screw was stuck in a gear preventing it from turning/ticking. The screw is still loose. How do I get the back cover off so I can put the screw back in where it should go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inspr05 0 Posted August 18, 2012 photo (1) by ph255, on Flickr That loose screw was stuck in the gears preventing it from ticking. After a subtle shake it came loose and began to work again. How do I take of the back cover to screw it back in? Thank you for any help. Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dalboy 2 Posted August 18, 2012 If you have some gaffa tape you can make a tape ball, adhesive side out obviously and use this..you will be surprised that most rep case backs are not that tight. Once you have the back off i would hold it over a clean flat area nad give it a couple of shakes and or taps before attempting anything else. Good luck with it Dal...........

Chavezzito 121 Posted August 18, 2012 Roll a ball of tape with the sticky side out and press against the back and turn. Dammit Dal! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carus007 23 Posted August 18, 2012 These things happen! Actually it happened to me about 3 weeks ago, Bought a Blue Steelfish from Toro and when she arrived the hands were catching the Breitling logo! I contacted Toro and he agreed I should return the watch for a replacement, Ok it did cost me £10 to return the faulty watch but at the end of the day I would rather lose £10 than a small fortune on another site which scam you, or you do not have any come backs at all. I know its a pain in the arse but work with Toro and all will be rectified! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFleischer 4,355 Posted August 19, 2012 My advice- find a local watch smith- you can sort this out in 10 min and spend maybe $15. Its a lot easier than sending it back or risk screwing something up yourself if you're not watch handy. Perhaps; Toro may offer a credit next time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Craig88 0 Posted August 28, 2012 Got the watch yesterday. It doesn't run. This is a big dissappointment. What a bad first experience with reps. Does Toro check that the watches work before shipping? The QC pictures he sent are not the same watch I received. My watch is missing a few screws and have supplied the two pictures for you all to look at to make sure I'm not loosing it. I opened the CG lever, and wound the watch away from me 40 to 50 times until I felt resistance. The watched worked for 20 seconds and then stopped ticking and has not ticked since. When I email TORO he just says I do not know how to wind the watch and offers no assistance. I thought he was supposed to be a reputable dealer. Obviously not. That is very shady to switch watches. http://www.flickr.co...N03/7808598206/ http://www.flickr.co...N03/7808596756/ Assuming that the bolded part is true, then I think making a topic of this was the right way to go. I understand there is no gen PP like QC in the rep world but just telling a customer that he doesn't know how to wind the watch and hoping it will go away seems like bad service to me.

Luthier 1 Posted August 28, 2012 So, Toro is innocent, and still our great dealer, as I thought. OP is a noob and shouldn't be bashed. CLS has sharpest eye possible. Sticky ball is the solution. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
