    Hi fellow members, i wonder if you can give me some advice. I’ve rather frustratingly lost the battery clip retaining screw for my Omega Calibre 1320 movement watch. I’ve tried searching on eBay/internet to try and find a replacement but nothing shows up.
    Does anyone know where I can get the battery clip screw for this movement? I will be very happy when I find one. Thanks in advance

    How about an Omega boutique or AD, or a repairer with an Omega account? If they don't have one in stock they can order one for you. No big deal. You aren't likely to find one on eBay or similar places.

    Thank you for your advice. I assumed I would have to get the watch sent away if I took to Omega boutique or AD. didn’t realise they can order the screw for me.

    Perhaps you should have enlisted the assistance of someone knowledgeable in watch repairs to do this job for you? Is this a case of acknowledging you need help, a bit too late?

    Well if you can find an omega certified watchguy in your area he should be able to take care of any issue. With my guy it’s a slow experience he just keeps hunting for an original part at a cost that is not crazy.

    The "Screw for bridle for power cell" for calibre 1320 is screw number 2677.

    It would seem thats the likely one you need
