old destro this week cheers, Frank

my ultimate tip : get a used DSN watch from a member here - then the member didt the QC for you already and read read read ... his 111h dial is shitty while his 112h dial is lovely ....

just read this DSN adventure story first : UncleJay im sorry - i hope everythink will work out for you ... second : im still a fanboy of DSN im sure Pamman spreaks out his own experience but for me - my own experience - after owning 7 of DSNs watches : i never had serious problems and his watches "feel" better than the "normal" Pam reps i had. find me a better alternative to his parts and watches - and im happy find me a better PVD case than DSNs - and dont tell me JiFu with extra PVD .. or his vintage case-sets and dials .... where do you get Ti cases now ? swiss movements ? real sapphire crystals for all kind of Pams ? in the Rolex-world you can get easy spare parts - but Panerai Reps without DSN ? - no thank you cheers, Frank

INGY and BBQ all the weekened cheers, Frank

my watchsmith in Germany just did it for me - he could help. cheers, Frank

Aprikose+Cappuccino yammy !!

i think he means the clasp - here is a gen 2 compare : but this "made in USA" bracelets are not the best quality. cheers, Frank

Airking = 34 mm - the bracelet for 1601 should be 20 mm - where do you see 19 mm ? cheers, Frank edit : okay i get it : best to ask the seller if its 1501 (34mm) or 1601 (36mm)

the dial is form a datejust (36mm) - in the caseback i read 1601 = 36 mm so it looks like the normal mans model - if the bracelet is all original and still wearable the price is a steal cheers, Frank

today my fantasy PAM with 60 year old Cortebert Movement : cheers, Frank

well - it bright seriously : i think its impossible to relume this area by hand - i would leave it untouched. cheers, Frank

i don't get the hype about this Vietcong cases but anyway : how can i identify an viet 1680 case ? my 1680 has all the correct marking - even in the caseback, good crown position, but gen dials still need to be shaved to fit in - is this also the case with viet 1680s ? thanks ! Frank

it looks like mister T takes it with humor - and i don't think he is the only one who doesn't take this threat seriously so where is the problem ? he is a nice guy and everybody seems to know it - so what ? Frank

sadly i know - its called "M

just looked at Ts auctions ... and had a lot of fun a lot of BS - but what the hell - he wants to sell watches .... but this 19 % extra would serious [censored] me off - that's not common in German egay cheers, Frank

1680 has finally a gen silver DW :wub: so im wearing this : cheers, Frank

yes repaint i would say - but the case looks like a lady's Submariner now - only 34mm form 40mm left

the dial looks fake - but the case is a work of art the whole watch is a nice example of genuine trash but back to topic : Stephane : its always great to see your crazy Rolex-collection - thanks a lot for sharing. and this 5513 :wub: cheers, Frank
