Does anyone know the length of the standard strap on an AP ROO Safari (sec@12)? I am looking at one with an aftermarket strap and want to make sure it will fit my 6.75" wrist...

I have a question about the SS Bracelet for my Navitimer (A13322). This watch was purchased years ago with the leather band but now I would like to add the SS bracelet. Does anyone know which one I need. I tried calling Bretiling and they told me it is no longer made and would need to find a used one but they wouldn't tell me which one!?!? Any help would be great. Thank you.

Just received my new baby! This has been my grail for years and its finally on my wrist thanks to RWG Vintage franken Daytona 16520 white Tritium Dial -The best old MBW case set with pushers,caseback, crystal and bezel. -Genuine White tritium dial (this dial is much more desirable that the Lumninova dial) -Genuine hands set -Genuine El primero ebel movement (It was a brand new movement at the time of the installation according to River) -Genuine 78390 bracelet in like new condition purchased by me from a member at Rolex forum. Photos taken 4/5/12...Enjoy!

I should send it straight to pb haha...he has a couple of my babies with him right now

Apparently zig worked on it so he may know. If anyone has his contact info i can verify...btw it is for sale now as I have my eye on that franken in the for sale thread

Hey Guys, I just picked up this old school Daytona sec@6 from its original owner. This is the original sec@6 movement that actually has a good track record It is about 5 years old and has never skipped a beat! Zigmeister said the movement is solid. The watch was recently serviced, relumed, and a new crystal added by Zig. I was told it is supposed to have a swiss 7750 but this is not confirmed. What do you think?

I agree the one thing that bugs me the most is the bezel but it doesn't bug me enough to justify 1k :/

Thanks guys...its in pbdad's hands now

Hey Guys, Just picked this YM up from a fellow member and I was wondering what mods you all suggest. It currently has a new Rolesium Dial and hands from Trusty. I was thinking a better bezel (if it exists) and a repolish...? What do you all think? These are his pics btw Thak you!

I decided I will just have it repaired here. Might as well get a full service done on the movement anyways. Thanks for everyone's help. BTW Josh I have another order headed your way. Thank you!

Point noted. If I were to go this route who would you suggest for a PAM000...? Thanks everyone.

This is the type of info I was looking for. Thank you! I agree Josh has been excellent since day one. That is why I continue and will continue to purchase from him.

Just worried about customs going into China. Every time you ship something there is a risk.

Josh I kept it anonymous for that reason I didnt want to mention your name because you have been helpful to every question. I am not sure why you called yourself out on it but thank you.

Let me start off with saying I am a relative Noob so I am here to get an opinion rather than call a vendor out at the moment. Background: I have purchased 4 pieces from this vendor in the span of 4 months and everything has been flawless until this last purchase. Problem: Today I received a new PAM000 from the vendor and at first glance it looked great. This particular piece was for a friend as I purchased one for my self earlier this month. Upon opening the package everything looked fine. Watch was dead (expected). I went ahead and opened the clasp to wind it up and this is where the trouble began. 1) The crown was almost impossible to turn. I am talking about harder than any other watch I have ever wound up. I was able to give it maybe one or two winds. The watch began to tick then stopped. Weird. I put my ear to the watch and nothing. As I am moving it around I hear what sounds like pieces moving around freely inside. 2) I email vendor and immediately he responds. He tells me it needs to be wound, I need to open the clasp, etc. I explain that I am quite familiar as I have the same watch already (including a gen) and something is off. He tells me to open the watch up. I explain I am a noob but he says to go ahead anyways. 3) Watch is open and there are a total of 3 loose pieces. Two screws and some other piece that looks like a washer or something of the nature. 4) he says to send it back for a replacement. My questions: 1) Should I risk sending it back to China before receiving the new piece? 2) I have already told him I feel uneasy about this and he says this is the only way. 3) Should I be responsible for shipping? It seems like I should not have to spend a penny as the watch is brand new... Any input would be appreciated.

Just picked one up as well. Compared to my gen it maked it almost impossible to justify the extra $$$...so I sold the gen! Tiny differences that anyone outside of a true PAM guru would never realize. Yes its that nice (atleast to me).

Hey Guys, I just picked up a Milgauss Ultimate from a member and although I love it I have a question. Does the lume look ok? The 3, 6, 9 seem very dull/blotchy. If so, any suggestions on correcting it? Thank you.

Just put her on for the first time today!

This guy gets no wrist time so...

Thanks guys! I am actually using a strap from my gen at the moment. Unfortunately this thing makes me think twice about wearing the gen!

Anyone???

I just picked one up as well but mine looks fine. I will post better pics for you but in the meantime:

Hello Everyone, I am relatively new to the forum so sorry for not being very well versed in all the possible mods avaialable. I am here for some help. I would like to "mod" this 111M but I am not sure who to go to nor exactly what to do. I am guessing the crown and AR mods would be best? Any help would be appreciated. CONUS Some pics (I will update with better pics but only have my iphone at the moment):

Just got your email...Thank you!

Thanks guys keep the tips coming. So far I am really interested in the following: -DSSD -Yachtmaster -Submariner If any of you have a nice piece you want to sell let me know.
