So it's called a ''Helium Escape Valve''..

Recommended Posts

Lars_St

Hey guys,

 

Back again with my Omega PO problem ..

I've contacted all possible TD's here and none can source the ''Helium Escape Valve'' for me .. either they really can't or they wont because the watch isn't bought from them, i dont know..

Original dealer doesn't respond to my emails so i'd like to try my luck with you guys!

 

If anyone here has this ''Helium escape valve'' as a spare part, or has a planet ocean seamaster that they would like to get rid off PLEASE contact me and hopefully we can figure something out.

 

WHO IS MY SAVING ANGEL?!

 

 

Thanks for reading,

If you bought it from WI, ask a mod to help you out. They are TDs here.

Did you tried Silix already? They are also common for providing some parts.

Found this:

 

Omega gen valve

http://www.ofrei.com/page989.html

 

Ebay

http://www.ebay.com/...=item4615e78bf7

 

Dunno if they fit? But hey, its something ;)

 

Thanks for you help Stuv, but the gens won't fit the rep.

The valves on the reps are simply a sort of crown which don't operate anything.

 

And I own the swiss version of the ceramic PO so the valve looks a bit different than the most ones..

Heeft jou TD al gereageerd? Of kon die het onderdeel niet regelen? Probeer Silix anders, die staan wel bekend voor losse onderdelen verkoop. Heb ook een noob stalenband laatst besteld voor mijn hulk sub. :)

Tried Andrew (Trusty)? He has been able to help me in the past, it sucks though since the parts usually end up pretty expensive but if it's the only way it's worth it.

Just buy a gen one and use epoxy to fix it on there for good.

This. He's currently sourcing me some Pam parts.

 

Other than that I'd be looking at a way to mod the gen ones mentioned above to fit.

Guys,

 

Thanks for all the suggestions, Rochest says he can source the Helium valve for me, so WI should be able to fix my problem!:D

 

They reply all my emails promptly and indeed within 24 hours, very happy with the service already!

I'm not trying to reopen this wound but, I think you should be more careful in the future when you are going to refer to a TD, since you did not purchase the watch "directly" from Mary/Rochest they were not obligated to source said part for you, or answer your emails for that matter (and they were kind enough to reply ALL your emails in a timely manner). Keep in mind that is someone's business that you're commenting about.
