My bad! I meant I PMed Angus. I never have any problems getting through to you, my man!

Again, very good to know. I've just PMed him... now if I can just get him to read it. I sent him a PM over a week ago that he hasn't even read yet.

So then your point is that the old case was good, but the old dial was not as good. Damn. Well, I just got the old case, so now I'll set about finding a new dial. When purchasing one, I'm going to have to make sure that it's for the Swiss movement, correct?

Ok, I've just acquired a 188 7753, and I've got a datewheel to install. Is the matte finish on the dial a The Zigmeister service, or must I go elsewhere?

They sure look the same...

Well I have to be in. I've done everything else to this watch, might as well upgrade the crown again. Mine is a firm commitment, no backing out. I'll PM you with an offer to Paypal. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. I will check with him. I have also PMed you about perhaps buying one screw if you've got an extra. Thanks, Z.

Curious, because I want to set the winder most efficiently. Thanks.

Can someone help me obtain a replacement screw for a Big Bang clasp? Thanks in advance.

If the watch is basically a chrono with the seconds switched "on," does this signficantly affect the power reserve?

And they've got me in, too. Since I've got genuine hands on the 63, I might as well have the gen crown as well. Count me in for one. Thanks.

Those are some of the best rep fonts that I've seen. Very, very close.

Hey, Chris. I'm going to give you a call later to discuss something, if you don't mind.

I can't believe I'm just seeing this for the first time! Congrats, it looks great!

My gen is a L SWISS L dial (C series)

It looks really, really good. Great job, Chris.

Looks like the auto date font is too thin, something you won't have to deal with on the chrono.

It is a great looking watch, for sure. I'm surprised there hasn't been more discussion of these. Can they really be that accurate?

GREAT job on that California dial, Chris. It looks absolutely amazing!

There's a B series? I thought that it was C series only, and that the B was actually a mistake on the back of the watch. The Vendome listing on P-risti only shows C. Thanks for the info! Good to know.

Yeah, this is just stupid.

I'm not sure about the Fiddy, but I have a gen and I can tell you that some of the PAM reps overshoot the blueish tint. My crystal is very clear, almost disappears, but doesn't have a very blue hue at all.

While someone's other watches are never a complete indication, I think given his collection and the boldness with which he posted those pics, he genuinely believed that he bought the real deal. I bet he's shocked to find out that it's a rep. What a racket, eh? Spend 3k on a genuine E series PAM, throw it into a 150 rep case and then list it on ebay. $6k profit right there. You need to BUY THE SELLER, people!

FAKE!!! You can spot it from a mile away. Asian movement, short cannon pin, etc. Stay clear at that price.

The North Pole will have these same features? That is truly exciting if so, though I have not had any experience with Asian 7750-based GMTs.
