My dealer advised me don't do any clean (sonic wash) or oil for A7750 movement, cuz those components of A7750 do not come from good materials...if service the movement it may be die very soon...So Chinese stuff that Chinese factory can fix it......
It's H-factory's PAM360 v1, but PWC released PAM360 v2 looks much better than the v1......

No more love in Fiddy, I preferred those new PAMs shown on SIHH 2011...so REP factory have to create new decoration or movement closed to Panerai in-house Cal. P.9000 and P.3000 movements
For 201A you can choose Dirk (the best Pre-V strap) or Strap-Works 1860 series (the most cheap Pre-V strap but pretty good)

I saw senior watchsmith refinished brushed CG and the method refer to below,
1. Screw off CG and lever pin, prepare two tools 1), big size #800 sandpaper 2), 30 cm length heavy thick ruler
2. Put CG on sandpaper and CG to case side (not the round side) touch ruler
3. Pull CG on sandpaper 5 ~ 10 times by one direction, then CG wills refinish likes the new one

Congratulation! PeteM is right that MF is the best aftermarket strap manufacturer for PAM in the world. The real Firenze; real top hide and buckle; real top quality, every PAM fans must get at least one strap from MF. I have worn my RXW MM20 with MF 1942 strap sewn brushed GPF buckle almost 6 years. The strap changed into very beautiful vintage ember tan color, almost like what you saw the strap on vintage PAM watch book.
So mate did those six hands, crown, stem, tube parts come from rep AP ROO sec@12 also available for AP ROO with ETA 2892-A2-DD movement?
Concord with ETA 2892-A2-DD movement almost $1,000 not only $300
Tag Heuer 2000 Professional with ETA 2892-A2-DD movement
One key point but lot of mates didn't know, GEN Fiddy is front loaded mvmt case so why Eddie Lee's Fiddy case is high value? cuz it is same spec as GEN. But the majority Fiddy from Cartel and DSN or what ever where it came from? they are all back loaded mvmt case. It's a "SUPER BIG FLAW" on majority Fiddy. Where can find the front loaded Fiddy? sorry it is no more source right now. And why does Fiddy case back with number E0581/1950 is high value? cuz it is the best case back fits EL Fiddy case and also no more source right now. The majority Fiddy case back is number E0117/1950.
As I know Simona and Ferretti straps were same maker before, but some reason that Simona has transfered to another new maker. So Simona Bruno strap is different from Ferretti. Off course Simona's Bruno strap is more popular and sale than Ferretti.
