1940's PPCo Chronograph today...

Gens, i made some quick comparison on PAM127 V6, ZF and gen. In my opinion,both reps has many flaws. Which one is better for you, you have to decide. ZF font is too thick while V6 font is too thin. CG spacing in both reps are larger than gen CP better on V6 Distortion.. well it very much depend on camera,lightning and so on,but reps both are very similar and gen has less distortion L SWISS letters are more accurate on V6 but still it could be different angle,but i check that on few pics and V6 seems to be better Lume collor is wrong on both but V6 has more closer color CG engravings both are wrong but more accurate is V6 CG pin is wrong on both (don't have to be polished), but V6 has it in center CG lever also wrong on both , but V6 is more correct, but still needs reshape Minute hands are wrong on both but ZF is more correct here On the back Bots reps cases are incorrect shape. On lugs too, so needs reshape regulator on movement is wrong on both reps, but +/- engravings are better placed on ZF So to my own opinion, both reps are great, but both has many flaws. But they are small and probably visible only with gen piece compared in one hand. Piece!

First, I just wanted to give a shoutout to members StoneP and jerkstore for making all of this possible. StoneP for being an awesome guy and seller. Jerkstore for the DIY thread that gave me the confidence to actually get this done. This was my FIRST EVER build and that includes installing the hands, removing the date wheel and applying another dwo, cutting and installing the stem, etc. It was a nerve wracking experience for someone that's not known for patience. That being said, on to the photos! I know a few things that can be improved: -cyclops alignment could be better -dwo from wso has a smaller diameter and there's a slight noticeable gap -dial is a smidge off All in all I'm satisfied with the work and very happy to have my long time dream of owning a Datejust (albeit a franken one) realized. I think I'll eventually fix the little in the future but I'll just enjoy the watch as is for now.

Looks ok to me- flat top 3 in 78360 and dimple in springbar in clasp for adjusting length of bracelet are Rolex characteristics.

To my eyes and knowledge all looks quite genuine. Clasp code marks month & year of production October 2009. If you don´t mind, you can share the link from where you got the bracelet.

Mrs. Ubi has had one on her wrist daily for the last 6 years. She is... Not kind... to her watches and surprisingly, it's held up quite spectacularly despite the abuse. The only thing I would caution against- Do not drop the watch. Prior to this one, she had a 38mm J12 and it did meet it's demise on the tile floor...

I believe so, mine was made to fit the T-22 but sounds like JMB can make you one for the T-21. My 1016 is out for delivery, so it will be there when I get home....bet I leave work early today. Hard to believe how childish I can be when it comes to a new watch.
