It

Already in progress I'm told, so put some cash aside for the end of the year

The gen - in all three gorgeous variants (original sharkproof bracelet, new black or orange rubber deployant) - is sitting in my local AD's window. Tried all three on my wrist, and for me there's no question....black rubber every time, the new style clasp alone is worth every penny. This watch is a beast, and as gorgeously clunky, ungainly and yes, ugly watch as the PAM 187. And that's before you add in the heritage of the Cousteau connection, which the PAM will never be able to emulate.

I'm SOOO hoping that to be true, and that they don't make a complete mock of it.

What makes this rep 5 times more expensive then there other reps?

They also have a $7k rep

Gen:

Rep:

Thats not even close! Is that the best rep?

Edit sorry thats the 3220.50... rep.

Any reps of the 3520?

Where's the hour hand?

I think this is the ugliest of all the Ball models, I don't get Chines taste

Need I say it? Dare I raise the piteous cry once more??? Okay gents, all together now...

BLANCPAIN FIFTY FATHOMS!! (vintage, thank you very much)

+1

I'm also looking for the 098 is there still no REP of this modell?

This is the model I most like to se REP:ed!

I love the combination of dress and diver, and the long history of this.

Oh, en vit Sami, inte s

Are you in the right forum?

Are you saying that interest in reps is only for the not so picky?

I actually think that the crownguard on the Euromariner is better looking then the gen.

I think the flaws are very obvious, every part looks different. The 5min markers on the dial, the shape of the bezel, the font and color on the bezel insert, the CG, the engraving, the bracelet, the crown and so on...

is everybody coming out whit there version of the Pro Hunter now?

The shade of green on the glass looks wrong compared to a gen:

The font looks really of, gen:

And on the back the font is way to thick, and shouldn't the sticker say 116400GV?

Good reading and glossary of terms:

The care and feeding of mechanical movements.

That link didn't work

I'm starting to really love this, maybe the most spectacular sub:

Are there any good Rep's of this model?

Of course I could mod a regular euromariner whit the gen dial en bezelring insert, but I think that would be really expensive!

What are the presentors of the tv show Fifth Gear wearing?

I can't make out what watches they are wearing at Chanel 5s Fifth Gear.

Anybody know?

Jason Plato is often wearing some Gold Pam. But some times wheres some other super expensive watch often more expensive, then the cars he tests.

Tom Ford, has a diver I cant pin point, it looks like a big Citizen mixed whit a Coram.

I have searched but found no reviews of purtimes submariner how dos it fare to the Euromariner and WM9?

And whats not so perfect?

This is as stated, important as it wont be as easy to mod when PVD'd.

A 1:1 copy of the SD would be stunning!

Hm looking at some more pics of gen. The 5min marks still looks a bit thin on the sample from Puretime if compared to:

Gen SD:

Why is the ETA 2824-2 called ETA 2836-2 in the REP community?

The ETA 2836-2 is a day/date version of the 2824-2 (=only date).

What ETA movment are they actually using?

Many REP's also just state that they use a ETA, but not what model, are they using ETA-2840 or what?

For me non of those are minimalistic, this is more what I call minimalistic:

I have a 6542 dial en route & the correct handset already in my possession (I am just awaiting a larger broaching set, which is due this week). You may have missed my comments to that effect earlier on in this thread.

Sorry if I sounded like I didn't think it looked good, I do!

Ar you planing to change the date numerals to red?

ubiquitous, do you have a source or ETA 2892-2, they are really hard to come buy?

How about the different grades from ETA, the Standard, Elabore, Top and Chronometer?

Seiko Spring Drive is the best movement ever made!

Much better quality then anything Rolex or Panerai ever will make.
