Hmmm different, no accounting for taste is there

Are you sure the crystal is scratched and not just the AR coating?

Please read the rules about visiting ADs

ignore it

so what was it then, other people may just learn from what you now know

On what ? 2824, 2836, 7750, 1570, 3135???????

How do you expect people to help you with no relevant information

I am not trying to be rude here but if you want advise or help you have to tell us what it is

Welcome Chris

If it is a Swiss clone then you should be able to swap in a gen Swiss movement

Jex

Sad to say that this is just part of the rep game, now if you are in the EU I volunteer to fix this for you when you get the new crown for nothing more that the price of postage back to you, I may even be able to repair the old crown so there will be a spare in case some one needs one

That's not bad and it it has an eta in it the movement alone is worth 50 bucks

Hi Bill nice to see you back, was that the Pam 89 you bought? I have been wearing one for 10 months non stop now and it has been around the world, it's great when I have to go through the declare line at customs to get a carnet stamped wearing a rep as good as this

Why not?

it comes out either side it does not matter, can be very stiff in rubber, some sort of lube may help

I know how that all sounds but i was honestly thinking about a watch strap while writing it.

Yep jacobstraps hand made to your spec

So how many watches have you sold? Can you link me to feed back posts?

So you have had lots of dealings then in the recent months?

That is not a replica, it is a rip off, pictures are of genuine watches not replicas, I hope you have not paid as I think you will be disappointed if you have!

Unfortunately just as people have said before the watch you want does not exist as a replica, the closest you will get is the day date speed master with an Asian 7750

Do you remember me?

I joined this forum and TRC because of an issue with you many years ago, when you could not supply but had been paid, PayPal ruled in my favor but your account was empty, it was only when another UK dealer helped out that I got my money back!

I tested a PO when they first came out and it did have some protection, using strong magnets I could stop other watches gen and rep but I could not stop the planet ocean

If you are feeling resistance when screwing the crown down then

A the crown plunger is not working as it should screw down and disengage so it is not turning the stem

B if you are feeling resistance when fully would like you would on a hand wind then you have a problem with the main spring barrel, a fully wound auto spring will slip so you will never feel a lot if resistance

You are attempting to fix a symptom not the real problem

There is something wrong with your movement and also with your crown, disabling manual wind will not help your situation but fixing the movement and crown will

You should be able to do a 2892 for 2824 replacement with out issues, dial, hands, movement holder and date wheel should all be the same but you have to use the 2892 stem

If you are removing and changing like for like you can just use the old stem, but if it is a case that you have to cut then make sure you cut it too long, fit, test, refit test and repeat

Pam 089 GMT gets my vote.

Mine too

ok the rep is high priced but so is the gen
