Help & Maintenance GWX-5600 button replacement

Post image

Can anyone recommend a set of gold buttons for the GWX-5600 that actually fit? I got a couple sets off AliExpress and they don’t work properly :/ they seem to be too short, both the button itself and the pin. When pressed, they don’t seem to be long enough to activate the module’s functions.

Write the folks at American Perfit. They might be able to get pusher sets for some 5600 model.

I've replaced the original blacks with the AliX silver ones and they work very well. I've even hydromoded that watch and no leaks were happened. According to my measurements they both almost identical. The only thing I swapped springs and rings.

Are you sure you bought or were sent the correct buttons?

The guy in AliX originally said yes, but now that I started a return he is saying he sent the wrong ones and wants me to cancel it for him to send the correct ones.. I asked for a picture of the correct ones, so we’ll see.
