Looking good imo! I always wanted a PAM chrono - good I don't have one yet...

Anyone from EU ordering? I might join...

Need to locate Crystal for my noobmariner.

Would like to find one with etched cornet

Hi mate,

I am selling am GMT IIc case here:

The crystal is flawless and has the etched crown at 6.

I am not totally sure that it will fit the Noobmariner - maybe the experts can chime in?

Cheers,

I don't know him personally, but I think I read about him having some private problems recently. So don't jump to conclusions - there are more important things in life than watches... :-)

Little Hero got my CG from New York to Germany in 4 days by normal Air Mail!

Overseas shipping is really unpredictable... I had registered letters to the US take from 4 days to 4 weeks... Tracking usually doesn't get updated, too.

Very nice! They have improved this model a lot imo.

I really need to get one of those for my wife... (yes, she likes big watches... ;-) - so if anyone wants to sell his in EU, shoot me a PM!

looks nice, it's a gen case?

Nope, rep case!

Sold for 2000 euros...

The seller replied to my questions - wasn't sure if the bracelet was gen, no proof of purchase, J-serial number (didn't give me the whole number).

I still think it's a gen watch with a rep bracelet. And although the seller might have bought the watch legally it still could be from a dubious source.

Are you talking about the big bear in front in the jeans skirt?

LOL

But seriously... that's pretty scary!

I asked the seller if the bracelet is genuine, which serial no. the watch has (or at least which year it is from) and if he has some proof of purchase. Hasn't answered yet...

I thought so, too - watch looks gen from what I can see (could also be franken), bracelet is fake imo because he wrote strange things like "comes on a special steel bracelet"... and I doubt he has a proof of purchase.

Hi guys,

what do you think of this one: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=120610948219

I'm not sure...

Thanks,

"Origin unknown"... yeah, right... forgot which dealer he got it from?

Hi!

I already wanted to sell my Carrera a couple of weeks ago, I just didn't wear it anymore. The main reason was that I never really liked the bracelet, too wobbly and too much stretch. So after a bit of thinking (and because I didn't get good offers for the watch... ), I decided to keep it and buy a nice racing-style leather strap for it. So I did... here's the result:

What do you think? I really like it and haven't taken the watch of my wrist for the last couple of days.

And the strap was below 20 euros...

Cheers,

Thanks a lot, Pete! I am really thinking about getting a gen 111... unfortunately my bank account hasn't agreed yet... But someday I will, it's just a great watch!

Thanks, Pete! Great comparison shots!

From what I see I would say, the downside of the gen CG doesn't have the same slope as the upper side. The downside looks more flat on the pics. Ist that true? Apart from that the LH CG seems to be quite good, maybe a bit too much slope / too concave.

Hi!

Whenever I look at my LH 111i, I am wondering if the gen CG is really that concave. I haven't found a pic of a gen that shows the CG from the side like in this pic:

Anyone with a gen who can confirm the CG is curved like this? It would be great if you could take a photo from the same angle as mine above for comparison.

Cheers,

*argh*... I just found out Oct. 16th is my first wedding anniversary...

OK... so count in my wife! I guess she won't mind... If the dinner is decent...

I'm a Navi fan, but the badly recessed date wheel really puts me off... Can you improve that without too much effort?

No, not really...

I've never been a fan of nato straps anyway. I only occasionally like them on vintage Rollies.

Ist that thing real? Uhm, I mean the watch of course... Seriously - does such a model exist? Or has Heidi modded a gen PAM? LOL!

I always liked the polished-middle-link bracelets better compared to the completely brushed ones. So, yeah, I like it! EL fitting looks pretty good, too!

I think he's on holiday...

Cheers,

W.

I'm really wanting to make it! but what the hell! Flights from madrid are a minimum 10 hours with a layover!

Hey mate!

You can make it in 4-5 hours if you fly with Air Berlin via Majorca. Check it out!

Cheers,

Whatever

Ouch... sorry, Cats! I also nearly made that mistake the other day (with a hire car)...

Oh great, finally a German GTG! I'm in of course!

I'm really looking forward to seeing all you guys in person!

I understand there are some problems with WM9 atm. But anyway it seems a bit strange to me that you register her and post this thread 5 minutes later (your one and only post). Looks like you only registered to post this - well, you can say you want to warn us but nevertheless this seems a bit fishy to me...
