  1. I love the simple elegance of this piece. It's my favorite of the contemporary line. So far... Thanks very much for sharing! Do you think the Paci straps are worth it for the money? I'm a big fan of Heroic straps, but if you recommend having at least on Paci, which would it be? The one on this 104 rocks.

  2. Phoband, what gives? Are you stealing my girlfriends. First you like Zeniths like I do, then you take Debbie from me? Come on, even though the years haven't been kind, I've never strayed, ever since she and I were electric youth. Hands off her doughy buttocks, pally wally.

  3. Thanks, Drulee! I'll check it out. Andrew says he will sell me one for around $130, which I might do. Do you know if the movement swap will work? I've never done this. This will be my first time, and I'll have the help of a watchsmith to do it, but I want to make sure the subdial spacing is right and that the crown will fit.

    Since it once came with that movement, I think it will, but I'm waiting for someone to confirm that before I buy the movement.

    thanks again.

  4. Does anyone know how to source a Seagull ST-19?

    I'm planning to change out the old A7750 in my PAM 212 (which has wonderful Zig-lume) with a manual movement. I have a PAM 192, which has the Seagull ST-19, and I know that the 212 came with a Seagull initially.

    I hope it will work, but if anyone knows of any reason why it won't, I'd love to hear it. Otherwise, please PM me if you know how to source one of these movements. I'm happy to buy one off any of you if you have one as well.

    thanks in advance.

  5. I think that there are a few watches that make people want to invest in a gen, and some don't. It's different for everyone. For me, I would like to own a Lange, because a) there aren't good reps made for them, and B) they were the first company to do fair labor practices for their employees. Put that together with their beautifully decorated movements, and that makes me want a gen. But if I had a very good rep, especially from a company that overprices their product (Panerai), then I would never need the gen.

  6. If there are any around, I would be right behind you in line to get one. I think these watches are beautiful. They piece together so many qualities that I like about timepieces, particularly the mix between the rugged and the sleek.

    Unfortunately, I don't know of any dealers that make this. I don't think rep makers would do this unless they knew they would get a large following. Not many people, even in the watch community know about these timepieces, so why would the rep makers bother? too bad, really.

  7. Are the straps on these more of a true "navy" blue, or more of a charcoal-black?

    As I understand it, the 06 has a blue strap, but the 08 has a black one. I'm not 100% sure though, but from all pics I've seen here and all other research I've done that seems to be the case.
