Correct.

Ok, I found myself giving links to those old posts of mine on the 'old' RWG, so I thought I could post them here as well. Apologies for repeating myself, and to anyone not interested. PAM reference spreadsheet: In this version 1.4 I decided to remove all references to dealers. They outdate too quickly. Most models with numbers > 200 are still missing. EDIT: this PAM table is by far obsolete. You may find the latest release in my signature. Here is genuine Italian pronunciation from a genuine Italian member. In the attached mp3 I say: OFFICINE PANERAI RADIOMIR LUMINOR MARINA MILITARE (Apologies for not-so-good quality. I couldn't find my microphone, so I had to record it in my mobile phone and convert it afterwards.) Edit Dec 6th 2007: Files removed due to this thread. My apologies to anyone (especially newbies) who might have needed them. PAM_Table_v1.4.zip PAM_mp3.zip

I am going to give them a try too. PM sent.

Wow, is a collaboration The Zigmeister / Davidesn rising here? That would be outstanding!

Pam, just stop teasing us and tell us how to get them

Feek, I suppose you told him that in order to unscrew the crown he had to turn it counterclockwise.

If I were a rep manufacturer I would prefer to use genuine gold rather than rhodium, being the cost of rhodium about three times that of gold...

Another fix: osteopath's fix for loose lever

Wow, this is announcing as very interesting.

Ah, a 47 mm. Then all is clear. I did not get one of those giants so far for similar reasons.

I beg your pardon, but surely it can be allergic as long as the case and the caseback are made of different materials (as, e.g., in a PVD coated watch). Anyway, since Finepics is inclined to exclude allergy too, I'll rely upon his and your diagnosis.

By chance, was it the PVD one, Mark? Hardly to judge from pics only, but that inflammatory reaction does not look due to mechanical pressure, but rather to some allergic response. In any case, just rest (1) and some topic steroid medication will do the job. (1) wear your watch on your right wrist for some days -- another watch is recommended though

I am actually enquiring Davidsen on hands for a PAM104 that I recently purchased, and that I want to mod with gold hands (eeeeek! ). He looked willing and helpful so far. Still waiting for his last response, though. If anyone is interested in the hand specs of these common asian automatic 21j movements everywhere around, here are those I have found: hour hand: hole diameter 1.55 mm, length 10 mm (from the middle of the hole to the tip) minute hand: hole diameter 1 mm, length 14 mm small second hand: hole diameter 0.18 mm (thanks to The Zigmeister for providing info on hole sizes)

shultz & Chicken Manny: Your orders have been booked. Thanks for your appreciation.

The Zigmeister, I have been left speechless. The amount of knowledge from your reviews and tutorials is simply overwhelming. And every single word clearly tells of your love and devotion to your work and those little wonderful objects that tiemepieces are. THANKS! :sss:

Always the same ol' TTK... He shouts, he roars, he bites, but in the end he always stands behind his customers.

All expeditions from Andrew took 3 weeks or more to come to my hands. And in all that time the USPS/POSDAFTAR tracking system proved to be completely useless.

4 auto for me: 1 for ETA 2893 -- PVD coated (by arrangement with Tommy a little more than one month ago) 3 for asian auto Miyota82xx-like, if they too are ready. Looking for price and instructions on payment, via PM or how else you like.

Damn I am late to the party.

Very good, thanks again.

Thanks slickdick, I found. But then I am beginning to suspect that my friend told me something wrong when he said he wanted an Oyster band. He showed me a band like this, saying it was the Oyster model (but it looks different from River's):

Mark, just try and do even a little bit less than that in your job for me, and I'll fly to London to chase you!

slickdick, thanks for your reply and that link to your very informative post. About River, I already checked his place, but I was actually unable to find any Datejust models. Maybe I am missing his actual link? The one I used is: http://photobucket.com/albums/b327/river325/
