Hey everyone! It's been a while since I've posted here, but I'm getting back into replicas and looking forward to becoming active again. It's great to be back! I'm looking for a black leather strap with buckle for my Datora. Does anyone know of a US-based person making these? Appreciate the help! Steve

Very nice!

I have a base PAM now and don't really like it. I'm not sure if it's becasue of the size (pretty big!) or that it's so plain as compared to a chrono version. I also like white face watches. This one has my interest because of the etching on the bezel and also it's a much more cluttered dial. I like the bracelet too. Does anyone have any thoughts on this version and also a wrist shot? http://www.p-cls.com/pn25102-251k-daylight-chrono-ssss-white-asian-7753-p-9175.html Thanks for your help! ME

I'm having a tough time deciding between these two wantches.

Does anyone have a wrist shot of the Ingenuier? Also considering this PAM, but I'll prpbably get this one and one of the above watches. http://www.p-cls.com/pn25102-251k-daylight-chrono-ssss-white-asian-7753-p-9175.html Thanks for your help with this major decision! ME

Thank you!

I haven't participated in the forum in quite a while. I'm ready to order a few new watches from Perfect Clones but the site I used in the past is not there anymore. Can someone help me by giving me the most recent site to order from? Thanks! Steve

Awesome stuff! Thanks for being so generous with your work. RWG is a great place, full of GREAT members!

I didn't consider the non-English date wheel. Probably German. I'll look into that. Anyone know what language it's supposed to be?

Thanks! I sent it off yesterday and added the sunken date wheel fix to the list. I'll post pics when it returns.

I'm sending my UPO Chrono to The Zigmeister for service this week. The darn pushers stopped working and it needs a good service anyway. I'm also getting the dial and hands lumed to match the genuine. Also going to see if he can waterproof it better. I already have a fully franken UPO (chief AR, Gen dial, hands, crown, HE valve) and love it. I don't want to put that much money into the chrono version, but does anyone have any other modds to suggest? Appreciate the help!

I've been wearing my new Slevin 3719 since it arrived a week ago. I love it! My UPO Chrono has a meeting with The Zigmeister in six weeks for a checkup and some lume, then I'm thinking of having some modds done on this baby. I've read that the date wheel is a must, but I'm not sure about what else to do to it. I was thinking AR, but I hear Chief is not doing it anymore and the AR on it now seems pretty darn good (not Chief's, but okay for me). Any other suggestions? BTW, where can I get a gen date wheel? Thanks! I'll post pics when it's finished. Steve

Who is she?

President? Sounds like too much work! One link going in the mail tomorrow. Happy to help, that's what RWG is all about. Steve

I have at least one link I can spare. I'm in Utah. PM me your address and I'll send it out. Steve

There are SO MANY PAMs that I missed the 251K. It's beautiful. I like that white face too. Thanks for the advice!!!

:thumbsupsmileyanim:

I agree, use the trusted dealers. Good reputations and they know what they're doing.

I had not seen the 177. Looked at it last night on Perfect Clones and that may be a good idea for my first PAM. I'm pretty new to PAMs and I'm amazed at how many variates there are. Just looking at the pictures it's hard to discern the differences. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks for all your help. I think I'm going with the 111-H. Can't wait to see how it wears on my wrist. Steve

I ordered the 3719 in both bracelet and rubber strap. I'll decide which to keep when they arrive. I'm thinking of keeping both the bracelet and strap and selling the head only. Think it will sell? Just got the quality check photos from Joshua today and they look great. They should be here later this week!!! I'll take pics when they arrive. Thanks for your help everyone! Steve

I think the 111M.

I've been eying the PAM 111-M and thinking of ordering it, but now I've found the 188-H. I love that white face! The 111 sounds like it has all the bells and whistles, but no white face. Since this will be my first PAM, any thoughts on the 188-H rep? AR good? Etc? Thanks! Steve

Well, I may be changing my mind on what model to get. I'm really liking the 188-H now. That white face is talking to me! Perfect Clones Any thoughts on this one before I order? How's the AR etc? Thanks everyone! Steve

The 3719 it is! Not that I'm that indecisive, but I think I'll get the version with the rubber strap, and the one with the SS bracelet. I've bought a few watches on RWG, but never sold any. What do you think, will it be easy to sell the one I like the least once they arrive? Thanks everyone! Steve

I'm ready to pull the trigger on a a Pam 288k (never had a Pam) and either a Slevin or Cousteau Diver 2003 from Josh (I don't see the 2006 version on his website). I just can't decide which IWC to get. I'm hoping the group here can help me make a decision so I can place my order and start the waiting game! I'm worried about the Slevin being too small. I have an InGenuier and like it, but it's a bit small for me, or at least compared to my other watches (UPOs and Ebels). Does the Slevin wear larger? It looks like the same case to me in the pictures. I'm worried about the Cousteau being too big (I know-- too big, too small....). I have a 7.5" wrist and my favorite watch is my Franken UPO with is 45.5 mm but with a bezel. I'm thinking without a bezel the Cousteau will look huge. Will it? I'm also a bit concerned about the blue and as I've never worn one. How blue is it? I'm hoping for dark blue! Or...should I get them both and sell the one I don't like here at RWG? Will it be easy to sell? ANY thoughts or opinions from this group will certainly be appreciated! Thanks all! Steve
