  1. Hi. This is a rep and only the movement.. It is slightly more expensive than a Swiss Unitas movement that why the post to ask for opinion on whether its good or not as I am no expert! Many thanks for all the replies and I will update on any news or pics.
  2. OK. what is the difference between this and say a Swiss Unitas movement. Thanks, Mark
  3. Hi Need all Pam experts to cime in on this movement. Is it any good or same as the other rep movements? Please any opinions would really be appreciated as am looking into buying this. Thanks!

    Just saw this on ioffer. Can't seem to find it anywhere else but I like it so need to ask if there is such a rep in existence? Thanks!
  6. Hi, Very nice BP! the more I look at it, the more I want it. On yours, the recess date issue doesn't look that bad. Can I ask if this is a big issue, is the recessed date very obvious? This is the only thing holding me back from buying one. Thanks!
  7. never a big fan of breitlings but your picture sure makes it a beautiful watch! Great Pic!
  8. Hi Raymond, that is a real beauty! I can't wait for mine to be back from Vac too. About the same mods as yours only it's not DSN but noraml rep with Asian movement! I just hope it looks as good as yours! By the way everyone, what is a LH dial? Mark
  9. Yes, the best looking Bvlgari ever! Really hope that this will be repped!
  10. The new Bvlgari Diagono Calibre 303 Chronograph. Never really liked Bvlgari watches but this is a beauty! Would love to see this repped. Beautiful shaped and great size 42mm. Only problem would be the transparent caseback. Have seen some great Bvlgari reps so maybe they will rep this too? I really hope so as I would definitely get one if it is done as well as the super-reps!
  11. what I am looking for is a Ice Bang but with ceramic bezel. However, I believe the Ice Bang has also a ceramic case as well. Also, the latest version has the hands that has the black lumi like in the rep aryton Senna HBB. the hands on the ice bang reps are wrong for this model (at least the latest one). what I will do is get the parts (if possible) and of course not all 3 watches, that would be way too expensive. Like what Takashi said, get the dealer to do it all. Actually, the biggest problem may be the black lumi, can anyone do black lumi?
  12. I have read a lot on the rep HBBs and I really like them especially the HBB Ice Bang and especially the customized Ice Bangs as seen on this forum with the ceramic bezel instead of the steel bezel. I have been thinking and am thinking of doing this so need some comments and opinions on whether this will work. Have attached a pic of a gen Ice Bang for reference First - Get a HBB Blackk Magic Full Ceramic with brushed ceramic bezel. Second - Swap put the dial with one from the rep Ice Bang and also the second hand from the rep Ice Bang Third - Get the hour and minute hands, chrono hands from the HBB Aryton Senna and swap it. Last step, if I still have any money left is to get some black lume done on all the hands and swap DW with ETA one and if possible AR coating by either Chieftang or Jakub. Please, any advice or comments would be appreciated. Of course this will only be after my UPO franken project. Thanks
  13. Well, Thanks to everyone for all the input. This is a fun place! Though this is expensive, it sure as hell is more fun than just buying one gen watch! Will post the pics of the modded watch once it is ready! Now need to save money to buy a good camera!
  14. Hi, Just received my Pam111H from seller on ioffer. Paid $215 including shipping. Took 3 days from paying to arrival. Really fast! Please see the pics! I willl be sending this for modding : V's CG T Crown high Canon pinion fix SL Relume. Swap of Dial (if the new dial is as good as I think it is) Please also advise on caseback. As advised, I have asked for the correct H serial number so this would be accurate for a Pam111H, right? Any other mods would I need to make this as accurate as possible? Thanks, Mark
  15. Lord Rasta, I am partial to the UPO but would love to hear any alternatives from other watch enthusiats. The problem with modding a UPO to the hilt would be the cost! Shundi, Love your avatar!
  16. Really guys? Breitling? I have read the reviews and I know they are great reps but I have always found the dials to be too busy for me. Lord Rasta, I would have thought you would recommend the UPO!
  17. Hi Capice, Soryy about the Chopard and thanks!
  18. Ok. 2008 has been an interesting year for me in terms of reps. I have always liked watches but am no WIS. Would buy a watch once a year or so (gens) but then sell them off to get other watches. This year, I have been using my funds on reps and modding (ok not by myself). This year alone I have bought Corum Admiral Cup Competition K222 Ar Coating/Swapping of Day Date Wheel (sold) Chopard GT XL Chrono Grey Dial (sold) Ferrari 008 (sold) IWC Ingy Lello DW K222 Ar Coating IWC CD 06, The Zigmeister serviced relumed and now in proces of swapping with Swiss 7750 Pam 252 North Pole (modding in process) Pam 111H (modding in process) Looking at the reps I have, I realize that they are all leather/rubber strap combo except for Ingy. I am now looking at getting a watch with bracelet and woud to ask for any opinions or suggestion. size wise between 42-45mm. I am considering the Omega UPO and swapping it with gen parts but would love to hear any other oinions. Thanks!
  19. Sorry, my mistake. I actually meant to ask if there is another way of getting an insert without having to buy the gen bezel? It seems like a waste of good money. Is the rep insert really that bad? Can it be modded by of the modders?
  20. Thanks. I use to think a rep is a rep but since the forum... well you know the rest. way too addictive. Haven't even done these two pams and already thinking of UPO with gen parts. This addiction is very expensive.
  21. Beautiful watch! I have the same parts awaiting to be fixed and relumed! Just hope mine will turn out as good as yours!
  22. Hi LordRasta, Thanks. So the other parts will work on a UPO? As for the bezel, how is the quality of a rep orange bezel and is there any other alternative on the insert?
