Anyone else struggle with getting the screw pins out to size the black ceramic bracelet? The AD I went to handed it back to me. The nearest boutique is 70 miles away.

You could put it in an ultrasonic cleaner (with heat) to help - the screws have threadlock on them, which is designed to counter vibration causing the screws to come loose, but I found a minute in the ultrasonic made it easier. Make sure you have the largest flathead you can fit in the screwhead without scratching the sides of the link, apply force and slowly unscrew (the end opposite the screw has flat sides that mate with the inside of the hole and prevent it turning).

I'm going to contact TAG and see if I can buy replacement screws, as they can still get damaged.

I do have an ultrasonic so I will try that. The AD already scratched one up pretty good.

Put some washing-up liquid and water, and get it up to around 70C (I clean all my straps & bracelets regularly, after a few weeks of wear, along with my Pure Link bracelet!). Make sure you dry it off quickly so you don't end up with discolouration.

Holy run-on sentence.
Install watchmaker and head to the watchfaces thread. Most can be downloaded and then added to watchmaker. There is a video tutorial in the thread posted within the last few weeks if you struggle.

There are some currently sold at chrono24. They may be there already for a while due to their asking price, but still, it could give you an idea.

To solve this problem, what I did was disassemble the bezel of the watch and paint it with a matte black spray, I'll give you photos of the before and after, think that if you paint it you will lose the numbers of the bezel, I put a bezel on top The one that carries the clock, to disassemble them you just have to remove the 4 screws that it has and lift it carefully
if you have it very damaged you can polish it and paint it later

Anyone have any good suggestions for cleaning the contact points for a better charging experience?

Try rubbing them lightly with a fresh pencil eraser.

Hi everyone,

I’ve recently installed Google Maps onto my watch. I’m having difficulty in getting my iPhone to mirror Google Maps from my phone to my watch. Does anyone have any ideas (sorry I’m new to this!)

Thanks in advance 😀

As far as I know, it is not syncing with iPhone. You have to use your Google Account on both devices, than it works(that‘s the way I use it)
