    After a lot of research, reading and texting with other forum members, I have determined that I now need at least 2 and perhaps 4 pushers for my 105.003. I sadly have TWO cases that have threaded pusher holes and the more readily found compression type pushers will not fit. These are the 4.5mm pushers, again harder to find.

    I have scoured eBay, both US and UK, called Otto Frei and even messaged a few friends. Nothing.

    Anyone have a source or willing to part with a pair or even trade? Desperate times .....

    Do you know the part number you're after?

    I have been told that this particular part has NO part number, if you can believe that.. The pressure fit one has a PN but, not the 4.5mm screw in pusher.

    I believe those are the 4mm pushers for the 2998 and not the 4.5mm version. Too small by .5mm (Correct me if I am wrong members)

    Well to make things a bit more interesting, I just measured the pushers that cam OUT of this case and they were 2.5mm. So, perhaps the part that Bumper listed would work. So odd

    Yup. I measured with a micrometer on the threads of the pusher that thread into the case and they were 2.49mm (2.50mm)

    I beginning to think that many of these threaded 105.003 cases are nothing more than left over 2998 cases with diff casebacks...

    I agree.. In my personal and uneducated opinion, 105.003 cases should be press fit. Pure conjecture on my part, but the alternative doesn't make much sense.

    So, can someone let me know what the correct part number is for the 2.5mm threaded pushers used in the 2998's? I am still confused by all of these measurement

    Al/Archer has mentioned that part # 086ST0023 will fit the 105.002 case - which (as far as I know) is the same as the 2998 case. These are screw in pushers of the smaller size.
