Thanks. I guess I could glue it in. Were you able to get parts or no?
That happened to me too. One day the pusher fell out and all I was left with was a spring. The pusher is screwed in so if it gets unscrewed, you're screwed! I had no luck in getting it fixed and ended up selling it for parts. Good luck! -
Does anyone know how the pushers are attached to the case on the ferrari? I bought one that was "stuck" and the pusher fell out one day. I just found a piece that looks like a spring that I do not know if it belongs. Other than this, Is there a source for replacements? Want to fix the rep as it is beautiful otherwise. If I cant, I'll offload this for parts and pick up another....
Any help is appreciated...

Ok. I'll repost. Mostly a feeler....
Your post should be in the trading zone. -
Looking to sell or trade my GMT. Black face, 50 anniversary caseback. Watch is in very good condition. Comes with special anniversary bracelet with gold inlay in the buckle. I posted in the supporter area but thought I would see if there was any interest here.
I am looking for a fully modded chronograph (Non Omega, Non Tag) for trade. Looking to see if there is any interest before I sell outright. Must have a swiss engine (7750, 7751, 2892, etc...)
Let me know if you are interested....

gorgeous!
Well I finally received my Panerai back from Vac. I have to thank him he did an awesome job with all the mods that were done. Also, thanks to chief for his amazing AR work.After several months of waiting here is my new watch. I do have to say the anticipation to receive projects like this is almost unbearable, but it is well worth the wait.
Panerai 111h:
Swiss Dagger Swan Neck
Cannon Pin Fix
DSN Dial
Chief AR
Super Lume
CG Mod
New CG
Movement fully serviced
And of course the pictures, happy viewing.

Can the Panerai Ferraris be fitted with a genuine 7750? There may not be a good reason to do so, just wondering. Has anyone done this here?

Hey Everyone,I'm looking to get a brown leather strap for my Chronofighter. Does nyone have some pics to share? Any suggestion on where to get a strap? I think the Chronofighter is funky because teh strap goes from 24mm down to 20mm at the buckle. Any help would be appreciated!

Yes. Once the strap is made, you do not want to trim on the outside. You can try and get a rotozip or a dremel with a very small abrasive bit and "drill" against the section that butts the case, or manually you can use a jewelers file to work the inside down. It will take a bit of patience not to mess up the ends.
Let us know...
Hi mate. The tubes are already out..So the material needed to be trimmed on the inside of the loop (through which the bar screws to the case) at the time the strap was being made? Can this be somehow fixed at this stage? Can I use some tool to trip the insude of the loop to make the conncetion point thinner?
Many thanks.

You can not do anything and maintain the integrity of the strap. I make custom straps and if Zack used 2-3mm leather, it will do this if you do not remove material at the case connection point. I dont presume to say how he made his but I have made a few straps that have this problem and bought several that have had this issue. Common on the thicker straps. You can try and remove the tubes as mentioned to allow the leather to flex more but that's just about it without trimming material.
Let me know if you want straps that do not have this issue and I'll whip up a couple for you.
Hi Fellas,I have bought a Pam from Josh and have modded it. Zack (Red12) has built 2 beautiful straps for me. The combo looks great but the strap keep rubbing on the case and is getting scratched up.
Is there anything I can do about this?
I have been looking at wristshots here on the forum and it doesnt look like many people are experiencing the same problem. How do you guys do it?
Most Pam straps are quite thick and I wouldnt say mine is thicker than other straps..
Do you somehow sand the case back?
Thanks for your help, in advance.

I make custom straps. Let me know what you are looking for and I will custom make one in the neighborhood of $40-80. If interested, Ill send pics...

Much appreciated. I guess Ill put the hamilton up for sale...
Probably not. The stem will in all likelihood be too high. These cases are engineered for the eta 2836-2 and the asian 21j's like the DG 2813.But BK is coming out with a WM9 Yacht-Master w/ the 2824-2 and it will have the crown positioned properly so it will look just like the gen. As is the case on rep YM's and subs, the crowns are positioned a little bit too low- this is something us anal compulsive rep fans notice, but something the other 99.99% of the world could care less about.
Oh, and BTW, hands are different sizes and the dial feet are in different places for eta and asian movements.

I have a watch that I am planning on selling or using the movement to replace the asian movement in my yachtmaster. I am not familiar with the rollies but will this movement fit?

Near us would be good.....Thank you! PM me...

I'll contact you. I live in Spring and just moved here and do not know anything about Houston. I appreciate the advice. Thank you both for the help. These guys are Rep friendly I assume...

Sorry I missed it. Thank you for the reply. I am probably going to send some stuff to The Zigmeister but thought about local first since I have some gens that need servicing as well...
Include me on the next invite...
