I´m afraid it doesn´t exist.... I would prefer it with polished case and Professional II bracelet.
-
Joshua just posted a new stunner. Breitling Super Avenger! Yes..... there are still some flaws.... but hey.... THIS THING MUST WEIGH A TON!!! I´d really like to see a pic of this BAD BOY on the scales.
-
Just some points: 1. No pic of the actual item. 2. Zero feedback. 3. "Found this watch in a bag..." 4. and best of all "I have been assured...... but I must warn you...." I suggest: Leave it where it is.

If I was the owner of the shop, that guy would have been out of a job immediately.
-
NICE! I really like the "non-yellow" markers. Where did you get it? Price?
-
Yes he is. Send him a PM. He´ll reply quickly.
-
I hope they get the "OFFICINE PANERAI" engraving correct on the CDG "H"-movement one day. After a pin-mod, lume job and palp crown this would be the last flaw you could see with the naked eye. Everything else needs magnification to judge.
-
Which means...... that at least one of these has to be modded with the longer pin. Several trusted members offer that service. Maybe you should give it a try.

Pam187 / Pam194 Diver Strap For Deployant...

Ummm...... Maybe I´m the only one here that hasn´t seen it yet...... Pics? -
And after all..... Comparing it to the gen pics.... If it wasn´t for the datewheel, you can´t say that it is WAY off. Especially not at this price. If it had a black datewheel.... I´d hit it. A very promising first piece if you think of next version that will hit the market.
-
By the way.... This one has exactly the correct bezel teeth that we´d all like to see on the 45mm model.
-
I bet it´s already in the pipeline. The cheap one is for testing the waters only. I guess it won´t be long until we see the first 7750 version. But always remember: It will only be the 1st Generation of it. Maybe as a x-mas gift?
-
@ leitztozeiss I got them from the local dealer. I brought my brother´s Oysterquartz in for repair (always something wrong with that thing....) and asked for some Panerai screws. He brought a set and just said: "Here you are." And guess what...... they were for free. (maybe I should have also asked for new tubes.... ) That´s customer service!
-
WOW!!! That´s what I call a collection! And also nice taste overall. I must admit that I´m especially suprised by the difference between the two PO bracelets. It´s only 2mm on the paper but it seems to make a huge difference when compared side by side.
-
@ dadog13 Hehe...... I just wanted to say that they´re a little bit from being flush with the case. But after having spent a look at the reference section on paneris.. .com I just found out that the gens are not completely flush either. So..... WHO CARES???? *LOL* Maybe I should call it "PERFECT" or "1:1" now. *LOL*
-
Went out and got me some new screws for my 111 yesterday. I didn´t like the ones that came with it. Too much rounded and flimsy looking on the threaded side. So I thought.... why not use gen´s? Here´s the result. Looks like they´re maybe a little little little bit (maybe 0,1mm) too short on the slotted side. But the other side is looking much better IMO. Much more visible, flat and nicely filling the hole. What do you think? I guess I really have to find the time today to pack it up and send it to palpatine for the complete mod package. I just can´t part with it...... PALP!!! You don´t have to wait any longer! It´s going to be sent today!!!!
-
Looks like it still has the recessed pin. But running at 21.600 is definitely a step in the right direction.
-
Why don´t they simply take the same datewheel like in the smaller version? Where´s the problem?
-
At this price I don´t think it´s worth to take the smallest risk. Look around a little bit. You can get a new one with all the accesories for a little more.

I THOUGHT OF A GOOD QUESTION IN REF TO THE "PERFECT" SD THAT I GOT.
www_watch replied to 330cic's topic in General Discussion
And especially it´s about a Sea-Dweller. If it is a 16600, maybe the last Rolex model that we didn´t see a decent rep of yet. Wrong crystal, wrong HE valve..... and most horrible of all: COMPLETELY wrong case. How can any of the SD´s out there - I´m not talking about the vintages by WM or MBW here - be only close to perfect before they get the case right? I really don´t get it..... they´re doing individually numbered 187´s but can´t get the SD right that would most likely sell in much higher numbers..... strange.... -
Looks pretty much like a PT Ultimate with unmodded CG´s and smaller crown. As guesswho said I´d also like to see some more close-ups. By the way.... I don´t think you´ll get a warranty on the watch being water-proof.
-
Here´s the 45mm that PT was advertising some time ago: (I hope he doesn´t mind me using the pic...) Looks like the font was better on this one. It also had a bigger crown. But then again the case back wasn´t that good...... Seems like you can´t have it all in one.

Hi there my friends! I´m really interested in getting one of these nice Planet Ocean reps that are offered everywhere. I was looking at the smaller one first, but the common known problem with the positioning of the Omega logo is a "no go" for me. Getting more and more comfortable with my 111 i thought: "Hey... let´s go with the big one instead!" TTK, Paul, Trusty.... everyone has it. I don´t care about the bracelet being to small (22 vs. 20mm) or the bezel that is not spot on. But what about the date font? It seems to be really wrong. I never heard anyone complaining about it. No one would accept it on a Sub, Breitling or sth. like that. On the smaller version it is correct or at least really close. Does anyone offer the 45mm with the correct date wheel? I think this is a very noticeable flaw..... What do you think?
-
I don´t think that the logo is the biggest flaw here. Look at the crooked hour markers. Seems like not even a single one of them is correctly aligned?
-
So this means that MBW vintages are not the only ones that can be fitted with genuine parts?
