  1. Just got mine in today. Same black dial w/ silver subs. The bezel sits about 1mm below the case mount where the crystal begins, not flush. If you count the angle at which the case rises for the convex crystal, then yeah it's about 1.5mm. Looks good to me.

    my white dialed evo from this batch is defin. different. the crystal height to bezel height is TOO CLOSE. crystal edges of the case (the POLISHED ring area) should be 1.5mm higher. on mine it is same.

    no i have not fitted a gen bezel... as i CANNOT get this rep bezel off!!!!!! removed the screws, removed the tabs, still NO LUCK, tried masking off the case and prying up will a caseback knife.. NO LUCK this bezel must be pressed on with alot more tightness then any other rep! im gonna have to get a bezel remover and very slowly try and get this off... it went on right! so its gotta come off eventually....

  2. regarding this NEW updated evo. then case is INCORRECT when compared to V2or gen EVO. the mounting/case for the crystal is TOO low. the bezel mounts to the case, and the inner case protrudes just slightly where the crystal is mounted. on this one the crystal/case part fits flush or just about flush with the bezel.. casing the bezel tabs to be too high but is is also incorrect when compared to the v2 case or genuine EVO. this inner part should be ~1.5mm higher than bezel hieght.

  3. thanks for confirming the steelfish is a buger too!

    with SA's its pressed on... the screws for the SA rep are FAKE. :-) tape the case, and pry it up with a putty/caseback knife, take some pressure but it will eventually pop up.

    with this EVO though... I put a whole lot of pressure and nothing.

  4. so i recieved an EVO V2/3 rep.. i removed all the tabs and the outer screws... but the **** thing will not come off.. i wrapped the case in electrical case and even tried a case knife/putty knife to pop it off.. but this thing is TIGHT...

    suggestions?

  5. i though of this thread some time ago and never got around to posting it...

    with ETA/Valjoux the foremost movement maker, watches powered by these little mass produced marvels abound!!!

    lets see if we can name the most expensive and least expensive watches powered by their movements.

    rules:

    no gem, jewels or stones.

    case can be made of anytype metal.

    must be a nonmodified movement but CAN be reworked, polished, and or certified.

    list price value, and or street value will be considered.

    categories, most expensive/least expensive:

    7750

    7753

    2836

    2892

    6497

    I hope we get lots of INPUT and postings!!

    PS: if you must post a pic. please make it a thumbnail or reduced size pic as i hate when screen scrolling get sluggish

  6. Philippe Boney is a great guy. We spent much time in Geneva, lunches, and dinners. My time hangin' with both he and Angelo Bonati were fantastic. BTW, Philippe was president of Piaget before Panerai.

    'this provides a little insite to the source of the gen pam items??? ;)

    Philippe {BONAY} is a great guy, an excellent watch promoter and industry executive.

  7. 1. i have genuine parts for this watch. yes and hands. however very $$$$ as these are the last of my stocks and they are on NATIONAL B/O with no e.t.a. from breitling.ch on shipments. if you cannot afford 4fig don't ask or beg please.

    yes i have dials black/white in stock, blue i can order.

    yes i have NEW OEM bezels, with all screws and the INNER MOUNTING RING!!! you need this! those on the internet are pulled bezels and do not have inner ring and /or screws as the ADs reuse these when mounting the new dia. bling bezels.

    2. i have the gen watches. the crystal is also with some 'coke affect' i believe this is because the watch is so deep. while is is better/not as severe as the rep w/ AR the gen is not like other more shallow watches or even like my gen PO chrono's.

    3. if you know of a aftermarket crystal that will fit, please post in this thread or PM me! :-)

    ps: please note that many ADs are using the avenger hands (shorter) when making dia. modded gens. since these are avail but the SA (larger/longer hands) are OUT OF STOCK.
