Gearbox issue

I'd try sending the watch to someone in the US and them sending it to Oakley USA, they will still fix watches until 2019 if I'm correct

Thanks, I have asked a friend in the US who is going to ask repair questions before we try, thanks

Good and bad news..

Good news : I don't think you need to replace the complete case.. typically the "case tube " is removable .
However, Once the threads are damaged on the crown, and or case tube it is best to replace both at the same time.


Bad news: finding replacement case tube and crown will be difficult..

Another option my be having a watchmaker re-thread the tube and crown on a lathe.

Best of luck to you.
