Hey everyone,

This is my first on this forum so I want to it’s a pleasure to read the wealth of knowledge I find on here. So first, thank you!

I purchased my 4th F300 Hummer and I want to put an original Omega bracelet on it. I can’t seem to get the two case screws out. I do not want to strip them and no size screw driver, that fits, seems to work.

Any advice would be appreciated. I don’t want to drill into these unless I have to but I feel there are many options before drilling, I just don’t know what they are. Also, can anyone tell me what the four screws I circled are for? This is my first Seamaster F300, notice the Advil bottle!

Thank you
Jdean

 

The four screws you've circles hold the watch head into the integrated bracelet.

Good info here that show's it broken down: http://www.deskdivers.com/Site/SMf300.html

Might be worth removing that, and then cleaning the bracelet in an ultrasonic cleaner to loosen up whatever's holding those screws in place?

 

Thanks for the link! I will give the ultrasonic cleaner a try!
