PM Nembo at RG and get on the waiting list. Although he has doesn't have PVD, you can: 1) get the PVD done yourself or 2) spray the CG flat black... although purists would cringe I have 2 Nembo CGs and they look ok for preV.

Amazing collection! I've seen your vintage collection post as well. This must be just the tip of the iceberg. Congratulations!

Thanks for the clarification and extra pics. Looks great!

Very nice. I have 2 on the way. Is it just me or is there a very slight curve to the bottom part of the CG on your 3rd pic?

G is leading the mass vintage migration from the other place. Or maybe a lot of people really are stalking him

Great to see you here G. Quality post as always.

Kruzer00: Congratulations on your investment paying off. I personally would be very interested in the 240 bridge and PreV case set projects. Please keep us updated. Awesome stuff!

Go with DSN. You won't regret it. I would have kept mine if I didn't get the vintage and PreV bug.

Isn't there a way to get your money back? Is he like this to Paneristi folks too or just guys in the Rep world? I know many members here straddle both worlds. Just cause everyone is kissing his a$$ doesn't mean he should act like one.

That's the most overpriced resin-filled dial I've ever seen. At least it comes with a free movement.

Just want to close the loop: I received my Cort from the seller today. Everything's fine in my vintage world.

Btw. Better get some vintage dials from Ross McSherry while you still can. Check the sales thread here and in RG.

vlaletom: Just curious. Have you received your Corteberts yet? I bought a 616 from the same seller the week before your purchase (Item number: 180402185238). Even paid extra to have it DHL'd to me. But I haven't heard from the seller since despite several attempts. I know the seller is legit and has had some dealings with other members here and in RG. I'm just puzzled.

Mickey, Thanks for the pics. You picked up a nice one from DSN. A question to the experts, wouldn't this case work for a Pre-V watch? I asked the same question in Drulee's thread. ***edit: I'm referring to the short fat lugs*** Thanks.

Nice pics Drulee. Is it just me, the camera angle, or does it look like the case has short fat lugs that would go well with a Pre V?

Folks did this already happen? Would like to join if it's on a weeknight. I work around the Suntec area. Thanks.

This is my first post. Thanks to everyone for the wealth of information presented in this forum. After a few weeks of soaking up all the knowledge, I eventually ordered and received my first PAM rep. Apologies in advance for the poor quality of the pics. Receiving this package is almost a rite of passage in this forum... DSN 177H. As you can see (maybe barely) the cgpin needed some work. Didn't bother me at first, but after reading the mod posts and feeling MacGyverish, I tried my hand at the CG pin mod. Remove CG, check. Remove CG pin.... no luck. Anyways on to plan B... BTW I took the pics midway after I realized I my be on to something... Since I couldn't take out the pin, I would have to file it down while it was attached to the CG. I got some tape, pricked hole through it with a pin and wrapped th CG in tape, overlaying the hole over the pin... I then took a metal file (readily at hand from the days I used to build/paint lead soldiers) and proceeded to file the pin down CAREFULLY. You have to do it by feel and eventually you will feel you are filing against the tape. You'll have to redo this a few times and re-wrap the CG in tape until you get a satisfactory result. Alternatively you can even do this without unscrewing the CG from the case as long as you take care to mask the other areas... The end result... Thanks.... FGD, pls put me on the waiting list for your dials.
