Wow, not bad at all . Good work! Only thing what is slightly strange is gen hand and dial lume difference, buy it has to be this way. Dail lume is more "blue" hand`s lume is more "yellow-green"

Open caseback... where is winding stem there is one small screw what will hold stem inside. This is probably loose, press stem in(normal wearing position) tighten that screw and all will be ok. Easy fix if you are able to open watch caseback.

No you are not idiot, I am just too " anal" probably. But gen and all other pam reps, minute hand is tight around cp.Here if you will zoom in Z factory rep, between watch minute hand and cp is tiny free space, like a "ring" around cannon pinion between cp and hand. Zoom in then you will understand what I am talking about.

Nice...but does gen have between cp and minute hand that tiny cap?! Really like that PAM model... but for me correct cp is very important, I can usually tell rep or not via CP quality... if of course rep is not modded. Edit: GEN does not have cap.... damn... cant buy that. gen:

All week same ceramic...

Nice:) My first one is also from mahogany(plus thin tiger-stripes layer on top), second one is from ash. Third one what is not ready yet is from alder. I really like Fender- Gibson custom shop guitars, but buying these ~ 1500 - 3500 usd and more...no, I can make for myself almost same quality level instruments and also choose all components what I really like. Pickups are Tonerider City Limits, Tonerider Blues and one will have John Benson custom wound setup,similar to LOLLAR "Vintage Blond" Plus I like playing with schemes, first guitar is wired blend pot mode style, second one also, but it has also dummy single coil under pickguard and I can switch it on off, it WILL cancel single coils hum. Nice. BTW, I like your guitar neck profile. You dark blue(or is it black)guitar neck- these waves are self made or did you bought it as it is? Will it feel very different if playing from stock neck´s? Yeah, you are right, first guitar and gear it important but it does not have to be very expensive. If you already know that you will be playing, then yes, you can do upgrades. But first gear has to be more or less, very cheap one is crap (usually) and you probably cant even sell it if needed...Plus in the beginning you even dont know what kind of guitar and sound will suit you best.

Today is "terrorists favorite" day :partytime: just kidding..that casio is one ugly moth.......er, and it is tiny... not my style.But hey..it cost only 2usd! probably top gun today also, here is older picture with old kevlar strap :

Youtube is quit ok for learning basics and more...and it is usually free, bigger plus- you can choose suitable time for learning, in the morning, evening, when ever. Guitar`s are "in my blood", I have spend probably more money to guitars, amps, pedals etc, than to watches. If you really want to play, then you probably will...first 0-6 month is painful, rest is much more fun. Does not matter what is you age. I did find a few years ago hobby, building my own guitars also, mostly Stratocaster like-I love their design and they are easy to build. Also I modified and rebuilt some others, all together I have 6 guitars in home today, one is half- done Few samples, first build: Second , relic style body, I kind of like that styleÖ

CP is tiny.. strange, not for me, small cp is disturbing , but overall nice looking tuna can

I was searching for a long time, try`d kevlar, leather, military etc styles strap`s ... But this ,vintaged leather, IMHO perfect! Fitment, comfort and most important,color and style

Wow, not bad at all....

Just WOW! , one year membership and your are traded ~40 watch...

It is already 10th...but does not matter, still same watch

I was off a two years from RWG and reps, I am kind of "back" but if, then will buy only PAM reps now, don´t ask why. But how are thing with this beauty? Bronzo, real bronze case not these cheap reps, is any information about this watch( rep)? Will be available in future or not...any information? I like unusual PAM`s... I know there is some horrible gold plated "Bronzo" reps avaiilable...but... they are totally crap. I rellly like that watch and want it, hopefully some maker will make decent one If perfect 243 V2 was out and now 389 will be out soon...it is basically same watch... different materials and colors... would not be hard to make some HQ Bronzo also IMHO...

Happy Birthday!

Yes you are right, light is everything and play`s a great roll. But if you can`t tell major difference from pictures, it means usually that in real life lume tonal difference between gen and rep are not very noticeable also. And for me it is IMHO pointless thinking for re-luming, but it is just me:) For perfect rep, maybe yes, relume will help. Only there is no guarantee that atfer relume lume is 1: 1 as gen, it can be maybe better (or not) but still off some way... ' Edit: ok, if Cats version is more green and off, then yes, reluming will be helpful:)

How bad your 029 stock lume was , any pictures? I have 029, yes it is greenish.... but not like "HH" like IMHO Depends of light.... here it is more like cream color I bought it used and after heavy refurbishing it is very nice piece And here is gen picture from internet.... lume is almost same... ( BTW this gen is also IMHO already refurbished. Picture was taken was from gen forum FS topic.... case, bezel and CG corners are not sharp anymore, they are more rounded)

Thank you! You have nice Breitling also ps) This year picture? Already snow?!

And here we go again... PAM love

Today is gen day

Nice... made in Poland, Batory
