wombosi 0 Posted November 22, 2010 (edited) You'll need probably one of these, but probably smaller. Looks like some sort of an external or male torx to me... but don't pin me down on that. BTW, about the screwing... how's your wife looking? Edited November 22, 2010 by wombosi Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NoCompromise 0 Posted November 28, 2010 (edited) I'm planning to order the same model RM011 from Mary (your pictures helped convince me ), so I did a little research on it. There is a long thread on another watch forum about removing these screws. Bad news - Torx heads have 6 points, but these Richard Mille type screws have 5 points. The only solution given is to take it to a machine shop and have a special tool made. Depending on how tightly they are torqued down, it seems like you could modify a screwdriver to fit (somewhat like a springbar tool, but with the correct width cut out). Do you have a problem with the watch? Edit: Ok, I did a quick search, and found a possibility - 'spline' sockets that fit a variety of screw/bolt heads: Amazon - Universal Spline Sockets Edited November 28, 2010 by NoCompromise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you have a problem with the watch? I know that is problem with these screws, I also find a post in other forum but they dont find that kind of screwdriver. I have a little mailfunction with watch, so I want to open it. One of the pointers fall out and not showing days anymore. But watch is working absolutly fine even that he have this mailfunction. I dont know how it happen but one day at work I just want to look what the time is and I saw that. Hope I will find soon the tool to open the case and repair it.
