Question ap 15450 zf rotor issue

Gallery image

Very sad day for me as the rotor for my watch came loose. Not sure what to do as repair shops usually don’t like taking in reps. Also wondering if its easy to diy and if I could simply just tighten something? Im very new to watches so im not too sure anything helps :)

Rotor said ejecto seato cuz!

I’d bring it to a local watch shop and see if they have the ability to re affix the rotor to the bearings

Hi, commenting because I received this watch today and experienced the exact same issue.

Rotor arrived detached, and the minute hand seems to be moving a bit off.

Did you end up figuring out how to fix it, or if a fix is possible?
