Lars_St 0 Posted November 15, 2013 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, Lars_st Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probeer Silix anders, die staan wel bekend voor losse onderdelen verkoop. Heb ook een noob stalenband laatst besteld voor mijn hulk sub. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chavezzito 121 Posted November 21, 2013 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SSTEEL 0 Posted November 22, 2013 Have you asked Ryan from our sister site, RWI? He is known to be able to source parts for people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nofitstate 27 Posted November 22, 2013 Have you asked Ryan from our sister site, RWI? He is known to be able to source parts for people. 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lars_St 0 Posted November 22, 2013 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! They reply all my emails promptly and indeed within 24 hours, very happy with the service already! Lars Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyckid 0 Posted November 22, 2013 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. Cheers, The Kid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also sent Rochest an email with my apologies. Indeed kind of them that they are willing to help me. Will be more carefull in the future Thanks for reminding me nyckid.
