Unfortunately, JF crownguards don't come in a chrono, so that's a no go... It's a crap shoot if you get a good firm lever on these reps, the worst part is they are ground down at the factory to close 'properly'... sometimes they go a little far, but don't bother to make it right. You could try to get another from the dealer, but there's no saying if you'll get a better or worse one. Best thing to do, if you can is contact the dealer for a resolution. Our trusted dealers will most probably be helpful with your situation.

The errors with the rep is the glaring tick mark missing at the 9:00 position, plus the color(s) of the dial. Also the gen is titanium, the reps are polished SS. The rep comes in blue, black, and brown... guess they were having a B day when they designed it The reps are quite nice actually, plus you can get them in genuine VJ7750

Ummm... let me guess... Bugatti? Ken... Read the instructions

Great find! Thanks for that. There sure are some beautiful pieces there, yes, definitely watch porn

Bravo Neil... I think your shots suit their purpose perfectly, it's a completely different application. Technical photography compared to 'art' photography is like comparing oranges and elephants, you just can't do it. Those shots the guy made on the other forum are nice and artsy, but I'd probably never buy a watch from them, the exact inverse applies to Neil's shots, except sometimes they're just too good

What was it that PT Barnum said??

That's pretty funny... Sorry to hear about your watch I would get it serviced right away, as I think there may be a problem with the water resistance now.

First thing for me would be some quality control... there's no reason whatsoever for mis-aligned date wheels, crowns that don't pull out far enough, etc etc that just add to everyone's time and aggravation... There's just no need for it... It not only hurts the customers, but the dealers as well. Second for meis the lume... Every watch I buy (mainly Panerai) have [censored]-poor lume and they need to go out. I'd be very happy to pay extra. Third is REAL AR coating... I'd be happy to pay extra for that too. If I liked gold, that would be one area that needs to be addressed too, but I don't so I'll let the gold lovers here to blow that horn. I don't know how much weight we have in the overall scheme of things to really make the manufacturers sit up and listen, but I'll bet the dealers have some pull here. I'd like to hear from them and see what their thoughts are on these issues... Whadya think?

Bend over slayer, wish is a wish... That was HIM saying that in the video, which is funny due to the context and HIS REPUTATION... YOU saying it, on the other hand, isn't funny... it's just plain offensive. Get a clue... In regards to knives... If you don't like 'em... don't buy 'em. Same with forks and spoons

... jew gold... South Park or not, I find that totally offensive... what a tool

I'm interested Can you give us a ballpark figure?

I *wish* I could mod watches, but they are so small and my fingers are sooo fat, and my eyes are that bad... I'm just plain scared Bought a dremel for my ultra razor sharp Inge and was able to soften the edges on the bottom... so that gave me some confidence. Next purchase will be one of those desk magnifiers with the built in lights, a set of files, and maybe a nice sub to go to town on Who's got the best sub for modding??

They have one of these road shows happening here in Melbourne next week too!! The salesman invited me and took my address down last weekend, but haven't received it as of yet. It will be great to see some othere pieces here, as usually the Panerai stock is pretty dismal. I say wear a nice Rolex so they can bring you over to the dark side LOL!! Tell us how it goes!

@Maikel your signature is mezmerizing

A friend of mine is looking desperately for a Moncler K2 down jacket. Is there anyone in EU or the UK that can get one of these for me? There's a sale going on here tomorrow: And here's the jacket:

I like it... How big is it?

Ooooh, nice strap Pugs Is that a Metta?

Thanks guys, it's really a beauty and it's growing on me even more since I put it on... Almost got in an accident earlier and there was no beautiful girl walking down the street involved The 029 is nice too, I have one, although it's going to need some of finepics' magic to bring it to the point I'll be happy. The center seconds on the 029 doesn't do much for me, but maybe after a new cyclops, relume and crown I'll begin to feel the love that's never quite been there Drinks on Friday in the city Q Haven't heasrd back from those guys yet, I'll be calling soon

089 on Europelli shark

Fedex just showed up at my door with the new and definitely wicked PAM 089F Although not as dressy and sharp as the 091, I wanted a bit more of a casual look, I think I found it Here are some shots:

I'd also like to know if there's a reserve of these somewhere or if someone has on in 24mm for sale. So far, Joshua has told me that they are only available in SS

I decided to go the other route, after receiving my 195 from Davidsen, and ordering another dial for relume, I finally ordered a standard 005 dial from one of our dealers and had it relumed... The standard dials are thicker than Davidsens, so we had to bend the hands very slightly upwards so the whole stack would clear. Also, the 005 dials are made from his vintage models, where there are troughs made so lume can be filled in, which is not correct for the 005 dial. 005 dials should be flat. All in all, I am very happy with this watch now, it glows like crazy, the AR is beautiful, the CG is very tight, and the crown is excellent (although I am waiting for a Palp crown for it as well):

Sounds like you had an awesome trip! Can't wait to see more This is one of my favourite watches as well, if I was in the market for a genuine dress, this would be my hands down choice by a long shot... It is everything watches for me, from the shape of the case, the dial, to the open window... and the movement is the indisputed best chrono on the production market. For making a rep of this, unfortunately I don't believe they would come close, the movement makes this watch and I can't see them coming out with that in the near future. The prices on this watch is not unreasonable at all... Here's a bunch for sale: http://www.collectorstime.com/zenith.htm

That would be a Pre-G series 177, all sandwich dial models came out when G was released.... Oops, didn't read solid caseback, sorry
