  1. Yes it happened on 2 of mine... The paint is somehow very fragile.
  2. I tried to order the GMT Chrono in white or panda dial a few months ago but none are available anymore from any trusted dealers. Maybe a second hand is a better choice, provided you find one ...
  3. Ok just noticed Zigmeister deleted all his posts ... I just don't understand ... Why does it have to degenerate like this? Domi did a poor job on this, Zig brought his expertise on the matter. I feel very sorry to have this thread gone as a flame to anyone, especially when trying to help me.
  4. Why say that? It wasn't meant as a criticism at all ...
  5. Oh my Buddha! And you sell this one already?!
  6. Wow I missed a few posts here. As a matter of fact the watch is still with Domi. He ordered a replacement dial but was delivered a black one instead of cobalt blue. So he ordered another one. To be honest this relume job is pretty crappy and I posted this thread to be sure my eyes weren't (noob) fooling me. Zeigmeister just got a bit carried over when talking about fixing the dial and I'm sure he knows perfectly what can be done. Mainly the lume was spilled over the dial and if i understand well it's a bit corrosive. However, considering Domi's reputation I thought he might have had a bad moment when doing this. Nobody's perfect. So I let him do the rest of the mods (CG replacement, rotating bezel fix, pinion mod) to have a clear picture of how he manages the job. I just don't like to condemn someone based solely on one weakness. I will post the result when I get it back, soon I hope.
  7. Hi Nix, Are all the A7750 with GMT crappy movements? I mean i have the ultimate PAM252 North Pole (which is still with Domi for mods) and it didn't seem to have this kind of problem, as far as I recall it ...
  8. Yes it is badly damaged. I never saw that with any other watch so far ... And what about your movement reliablility? Does the GMT hand stays in sync with hour hands?
  9. Hey guys, I recently bought the new PAM88i from Joshua. At first the watch looks gorgeous. And it draws attention like no other (63, 29, ...). After a few days of wearing, the crystal showed some minor scratches. I asked Josh about that and he couldn't explain how it would happen with a sapphire crystal. I had to send it back to get it fixed. Also the GMT movement seems a little bit unreliable as the GMT hand is aligned when setting time (by steps like original) but after a few hours the hand seems to loose sync with hour hand. Did it ever happen to you? Thanks, Y
  10. Received all the parts last week ...
  11. It seems CousinsUK still have them : ETA2890242H290.
  12. Ordering just the dial from Hfactory sounds mission impossible to me...
  13. Is it an insult? Google gives a strange translation here ... Domi offered me to order a new dial to replace this one. I can't blame him for making an error. He is still a trusted modder concerning mechanical job, isn't he?
  14. Yes i would have sent the watch to Zigmeister too but the risk of customs is too high. I was just caught by french customs few days ago and have to pay a 300€ fine for another PAM.
