GMT IIc loose screw issue

Anyone have problems with the small screw that holds the band to the clasp becoming loose? I noticed it when I tried to flip the clasp to remove the watch and it could not fully open due to the loose screw blocking it. I had to use the point of a knife to screw it back in enough for the clasp to clear it. I will take it back to the AD on Saturday. Hopefully it will be a quick fix.

I think there have been threads about that here. IIRC the loose screw was the cause of the clasp breaking in some cases. Probably should put some Loctite on that screw . . .
