  1. 212 is a nice toy rep ...A7750 is good and will last if serviced and looked after well ...a re-lume is a must

    118 is a good buy - pick up a gen crown from enesefe on ebay and get a re-lume and the crown fitted.

    The 118 dial needs a decent clear coat to enhance the darker tones otherwise the brown tone is a no-no

    If you can source a solid C/D series Ti case back as well you will have 2 watches for the price of 1 (+ CB) ...PAm 118 and PAM 61

    :fish:

    Would you consider the Swiss Unitas 6497 similar in quality to the A7750? From what I read, it seems pretty good...

    This might end up being my first projet watch... a few questions if I may:

    The dial clear coating, re-lume and the gen crown fitled, is that something my jeweler can do or should I go with someone with rep experience?

    Ill check for a gen crown right now...

    thanks a buntch

  2. Hi everyone,

    Ive been reading a lot (probably too much!) on this forum in the last 10 days, and I have to say that I am amazed of the quality of the information and how some of you seem to be sincere friends. I am defenetly becoming a Supporter.

    But emotion apart... Ive been reading mostly on Panerai watches and I got it down to 2 choices. First is the PAM118 Marina Militare 44mm Ti or the Pam 212 1950 Flyback Chronograph Asia 7750 (both from Andrew, I like his service up to now) (I also have a bid on a POTR auction that I will get if I win, so I'll end up with 2 Panerais, worst case ;)http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=69586&hl=

    I'd like to have your opnion on 2 things.

    1. Should I not even consider one of them ? From what I read they are both fine but I'm worried that I missed something...

    2. Solely based on mouvement: should I always go with Swiss if I have the choice? (in this case the 118) Am I certain to get the actual swiss mvt? I also read mixed opinions on the Asian Valjoux 7500...

    I hope my questions make sense... ;-) Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks a buntch

  3. Nice Patek! I am not familiar with them... which model is this?? Its sometimes hard to see from the little pictures often used in vendor's site... so much better to see a watch in context... !

    thanks!

    That is a fine pair CC............

  4. Just go to Andrew's site... I contacted him throught that...

    Ahh nice... I taught it wast he one, and im happy that it is since their selections look great!

    I am essitating between these two. I would prefer the 45.5mm version (trustytime) and I don't really mind the price difference.

    I don't mind the bigger dial... I guess I should go with Trustytime's version?

    cheers
