  1. [

    thank you

    Hi Serge,

    T just presented his new T-48 crown in PVD-finish. Ti is availeable as well and the T-crowns fit just perfectly without any need for changes. You might need a longer stem, though.

  2. Hey guys, is there a panerai with a black sausage dial(111F,001) w/ seconds hand but on a Titanium case with a closed caseback? I know theres a pam 61 with a tobacco, but what about one with a black dial?

    The black susage dial with Ti case and closed back exists, it

  3. Frankt, TeeJay, the replica yacht thing is a common issue. Look at the Hinkley picknick boat. There are dozens of yards building boat of that style now. And Hinkley did not even start it, they copied designs from the 1950s by Raymond Bunker. Some turkish yards reproduce the style of Princess yachts in an excellent way, with great attention to quality and details. However, they don

  4. I agree that several theories about the things happening in the world today are just plain wrong, nonsense. But we have to face the fact that something unhealthy is happening. What really happened with the WTC? I don

  5. Everything you write above I agree with.

    But that is a far cry from suggesting that 9/11 was a conspiracy perpetrated by people within the U.S. government. You didn't explain in detail what the German show is suggesting but that is what I assumed since it has been a prevalent theme in these threads recently. If that IS what was being insinuated, then yes, I relegate those theories to the category of Area 51, faked moon landings, and crop circles. It is pure pulp entertainment of the lowest form.

    I am well prepared to believe the government has not been totally forthright - because to me it is entirely believable that people are running around covering up their own incompetence. What I don't find believable are the theories springing up like weeds, backed by the slimmest circumstantial "evidence" and cherry-picked "experts", all dolled up with glossy graphics and frame-by-frame "analysis" of one of thousands of images from that sad day.

    That kind of BS turns my stomach.

    Hi John,

    the documenttion did not blame the U.S. government for the 9/11 tragedy, but it showed that there are several aspects of the official version that have to be doubted. Did you know for example that the twin towers were designed to resist the impact of a Bing 707 (the biggest civil aircraft in the days when the WTC was built)? Slightly bigger than a 767 by the way... Next thing the report stated that the collapse of the buildings was accompanied by many events and technical details that show every sign of a controlled demolition and that a controlled demolition would in fact have been well possible since the occasions fot that were there or have been artificially created short befor that incident. For example, there were no more dogs that were used to search for explosives inside the buildings. this had been stopped a few weeks ago. Then Alan Silverstein made a real big fortune with the collapse of the (asbest contaminated) WTC from the insurance coverage of the incident. (He did not pay much for taking over the WTC which was sliding into red numbers by then.) Gold depots in the basement of the WTC site were found empty. Melted steel was reported from ground zero, but officially there was nothing that could cause temperatures in excess of 600

  6. I really feel sorry for all who had to suffer from that criminal act against humanity. For those who died and those who lost friends and relatives. And I feel sorry for those who suffered the same from all the consequences that followed this unbelieveable act of cruelty.

  7. There definitely are unanswered questions about 9/11. And there are a lot of reasons to doubt that the US stands for the freedom it claims to protect.

    Many civil rights are going down the toilet in the U.S. Now if you say: Well, perhaps there is really a danger for our beloved democracy the authorities have every right to fight it... Patriot act, homeland security, human rights dienied for certain people, the U.S. government standing above the UN and civil rights, Guantanamo, Abu Ghoreib, now mass arrest camps prepared in the U.S. whenever there are demonstrations expected, the government claiming the right to record telephone calls, evidences in a law suit no longer need to be found in a legit and legal investigation to be accepted by court, the U.S. is in fact under war rights since 9/11 with the president having additional authority concerning changes and restrictions to civil rights. Civil rights are no longer birth rights but they

  8. Hi all, I just saw over at RG that DSN has new H-series dials with good swiss text size and placement and even correct shape of 2 and 6. Has anybody here had one of them in his hands allready? It looked so nice that I instantly had to ask him for the price (still waiting as the mail went out only an hour ago).

    Opinions on that one?

  9. The safest way to tell if a 6497 movement is all asian or with swiss parts is to look ath the center wheel and the Pallet bridge. If the center wheel has the big teeth (low-beat 18000bph) and the pallet bridge is round with 2 screws the movement is swiss based (only base plate and gears, the OP XI style bridges in our rep movements are asian).

  10. Newb question here, on DSN's description of his 111h I see that he lists springbars as what attaches the straps to the case, do all reps use springbars instead of screws?

    Generally they use screws, just as the gens. In case that the screw threads get damaged over time you can replace them with special springbars that imitate the screws

  11. Hey!

    I made the drawings ;)

    The crown looked fine to me and I didn't question the number of teeth, cuz I thought whatever was given to me was correct

    Updated drawings with 48 teeth are re-sent, and I'm sure that's right too... but I want everyone to check the chamfered edges to make sure they're happy first ;)

    No offense intended, you did a great job on the CAD work. I thought the crown was 60 teeth as well, just like many others around here and we followed that specification instead of counting them. However, we had to find out that we were slightly off, only 12 teeth, not much. Just 25% more than the gen :bangin:
