It's a dissaster.... Does anyone know if members and dealers from that area are safe?

Very, very nice Tourby!! Finally a Big Pilot watch that isn't too big and can even be worn as a dress watch under a suit Impressive result of your project!

Not sure what you mean Whitestripes.... But anyways... a bump again!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats man... this watch is awesome!

i don't know the details, but i think one should be available quite soon... at least that's what i hope

Darn... this is getting interesting! Great idea T

I'd love a bracelet on the CD 2006... really looks mighty good IMHO. I asked Angus last year already but it looks like it ain't gonna happen...

I think a lot of people like the bracelet a lot. At least i do. But since Panerai opened Pandora's strapbox and changing straps all the time, i'm always looking to change straps on other watches as well. Any strap or bracelet used to be a given fact... now it is just one of the options.

With that lume this baby even looks better than it already does

I'm completely amazed by the paranoia of this topic and the lack of getting the facts correct before posting. Personally i find this shocking and i hope this won't become a trend. PS. respect for your cool reaction Tourby!

Hi guys, I'm slowly falling in love with the PAM249 Cali dial... but somehow i have the feeling the flaws are still to obvious to buy one. I think the gen has some sort of engraving between the lugs at six but the rep doesn't have that. So i have some questions... 1. can you convince me with pixx and arguments to buy the rep of this one (alhtough i'm anal about details)? 2. can you tell me if a good one is in the make?

It's a franken tudor for sure. Sorry to have to inform you of this... The caseback says 7928... this model never had snowflake dial/hands. Furthermore the 7928 had a cal.390 which is actually a rolex movement only with tudor engravings. There have been 7928's with another movement (some ETA but not the one shown in the pictures) but those where military issues with cheaper movements as those sold at the AD's. Pointy crown guards on a tudor sub are only found in the earliest models, among them the 7928. But the early models 7928 had a guild dial and the 7928 never had the snowflake dial... never. Could you check what serial numer and model number are angraved between the lugs? The case with the pointy crownguard does look very sweet i must say!! It looks like gen parts from different models where used and put together.

Mmmmm i still love that watch so i'm pretty sure i will buy one again!! Problems or not

YESAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! BUMP again!!!!!

The gen BP has 22mm lugwidth

Thanx Dave for such an excellent report An for all the reasons you name, Angus is my one and only dealer for quite some time now... OK... and all of you guys cause i buy most of my watches used

Congrats Nanuq

Hi Tourby... nice looking watch!! Can you tell me how this one compares to Steinhart for example? For the central second hand maybe it's an idea to make it with an automatic ETA so it can be much more affordable? I'm really looking forward to the final result of this project

Angus told me it ain't gonna happen

For me it depends on the suit i'm wearing and if i wear a tie or not... i must confess my PAM1 doesn't get much office wristtime lately. The main rotation watches are Rolex 1665, frankenDJ, IWC Pilot Chrono 3717, Ingenieur and Ingenieur chrono... and of course my Monaco

Maybe it's not the most accurate replica... but it is a beauty IHMO. I love the white/silver dial with guilloche, the vintage look of the 2-subdial chono and the blue chrono hands. Very nice looking watch

Nice watch! That's what i should have done with my PAM82...

If only one of the dealer chimed in on this thread....

Does anyone know if this model is maybe in the make?

I would also like to keep the costs low... every penny spent on hotel and restaurants can't be spent on watches
