Confirmed! My latest PAM "Ghost" was seized by french customs. Now they ask for a 300€ fine to drop the charges. Joshua (from whom i bought the watch) has advised me to tell it was a gift from someone on the forum and to refuse paying the fine. What would you do?

Shouldn't it be a 7mm cyclop for PAM252?

Hi thanks! Yes the ultimate were supposed to have a better cyclop but this one ... What DSN crystal model should I ask for? I searched in his forum section but didn't find any match for the 252.

Hi, I recently got a PAM252 which looks quite good. The worst part is the cyclop though : As you can see it is so distorted that i can hardly read the date (especially with xx numbers)! What can be done to improve this? Is it possible to replace the cyclop or should I get a new crystal? What do you guys reckon? This model is the ultimate 252 from h factory. Thanks in advance!

Any chance to have the pics back or the PPT?

Bringing back this old thread from the grave, but ajoesmith doesn't accept PM. Is there still a chance to get those hands set?

Hey Andy, thanks for the info. I think you're right about all the pieces needed. I sent you a PM.

Oops! You're right Andy it's a H5 pinion I need! So you know where to source them ... Always same old 29B!

Hi guys, I would like to know where to source an ETA H3 pinion for a gen 2893-2. Any advice appreciated! Thanks, Y.

Yup thanks Wolf for sharing your knowledge with us. Fascinating subject that is ...

Does the BigCrown C3 crystal would be ok with a chief cyclop, heightwise?

Wolf, does the 29b has the H5 canon pinion too? And CGs are Honpo except the levers from Sead right?

Ouch that hurts Wolf! These are my two grail watches ever... And yours are absolutely wonderful! I want to enter the competition but I'm still looking for a decent PAM029 caseset. Common guys!

Excuse my ignorance, but can a manual case be compatible with auto movement?

Thanks Kbiz, what type of knife would you recommend for this operation?

Another quick questions, are bezel switchable? For example a cartel 29b on a mm05 jackson case? Thanks.

Hi guys, just un update on this subject: is the Avitt method the only one to remove a bezel or Kbiz did you succeed to pop it out from the inside out? Does it goes for all the pam cases? Thanks, Y.

Hey Wagonr! I live in the 14e arrondissement! Were are you now ?

Hey! Thanks for your warm welcome! I am in the process of building my dream watch with different sources right now. I'll post pics as soon as the project materialize ...

Hey everyone ! I am from Paris, France. I have been lurking here for a couple of years or so and I feel now is the time to say hello to fellow members! I have great pleasure to enjoy so much knowledge on watchmaking. And it's much more fun that gen forums full of show off ... ha ha ! Anyway, it's a great honour to be here! Cheers!
