  1. Thanks for the timely review! I have been thinking of getting a Ti Pam and the 240 was the model I liked!
  2. The seller mentioned this is actually a 41mm size HBB. for the gen, the subdial lyaout is different for the 41mm models with the running seconds at 3oclock, I believe.
  3. I apologise too. Maybe my tone was a little harsh. @Repfreak. Sorry, the graphix issue at RG was quite a pain and probably affected my mood. No hard feelings
  4. Again, you do not read too well. Please read what I wrote. I mentioned your first post. The people who were not sympathetic probably just read your first post. Please read your first post objectively and t ell me honestly, what wold be your reaction. As for RG, This is what you wrote: Very disappointed in RG anyway when so many people said waste of 5 min of their life reading, hinting I am a cheapskate who cant afford a SD card.. To think I was a VIP there, and helping people out of their disputes... Most of them are looking for juicy news of watch scamming, when it is not, I am the result of such comments... I had the admin there to close my thread anyway Also, look at your heading. You know about the big scam incident at RG and you started with what at RG? " Damn, my turn to get conned!" This will be my last reply to this. At the end of the day, your situation was aat worst, you met a slightly dishonest seller, if it was that as going by your first post, it doesn't seem to be the case. Also, your later post claiming the seller promised you this and that was only after the replies from other members about how this is not the case at all. If you want to go deeper, I could be a [censored] and say the seller is not here to defend himself, you could say any damn thing you want! But let's not go there. Two things, Why the strong words on your header for the post? No matter how, it was not a "con job". Secondly, coming here and complaining about members of another forum shows you are exactly that, a whiner.!
  5. As a fellow Singaporean, I hate to do this but you really sound like a whiner now. Come on, grow up. Why compare the feedbacks from different forums. You posted a thread and members are entitled to their opinion. Did you just expect good and feel good comments and if not, it's not a good forum and suddenly this place is better. So if one day you post a thread here and the repsonse is not kind to you, I suppose you will be on RG saying that you are disappointed in RWG and RG is better is it? I was one of those that responded to your thread on RG and like I said and I will say it here again. Your first post did not mention anything of a 2GB card, so why were you expecting it? You mentioned standard package, what is standard package? You were promised a card, you got one, didn't you? He got a free gift from the shop as he paid full price, he is not obliged to pass that to you. You did mention later in RG that he did promise. to give you the 2GB card. Great! so he was not keeping his part of the bargain but again, read your first post! You did not mention that Please don't go around bad-mouthing members from other forums. You need to read your posts first! When you start a thread, you need to expect all sorts of responses. Everyone is entitled to their opinions!
  6. Yes but the risk tof completely dismantling the watch for repping purpose than re-assemble is a big risk to take for such an expensive watch!
  7. This is reallly such a beautiful watch!
  8. Guys, Just wanted to show my Pam 111H. As some might remember, there was an issue with a missing screw on the regulator but all is now fixed. My first wrist shot! Really like this strap and buckle too! Please excuse the crappy pics! Thanks for looking!
  9. I would guess a bit longer. Maybe between 8-10 days.
  10. Hi For dial colour, you seem to be right. The Cartel dial seems the darkest, followed by gen then DSN dial. As for the concentric circles, it is in the sub-dial but it looks finer than on DSN dial. From what I can see, it is more pronounced on the DSN dial whereas the circles on the gen dial are more fine and not as pronounced as on the DSN dial. The rep hands are really quite good. Can't really tell the difference. For the dial , yes I thinnk DSN is better, but I think the CGs on the cartel is better. As for the hands, it would also seem that the cartel rep 88 hands are closer to gen though I have not really seen DSN hands except in pics! As for Sander's question n whether the dial feet can fit Asian movement, I think it probably can as I was comparing the location of the dial feet on both DSN and gen dial and they look to be the same position and size.
  11. I hope tih scan com out as nice as your BP project! From what I understand, mine is the earlier version and the rep dials are the later versions. Both are right on the L swiss L placement.
  12. Thanks. Good questions! I am pretty sure the hands will fit except for the GMT one. That will be a question mark. There is nothing wrong with the DSN dial, just the pics I suppose. Not too sure how all these will work out but what the heck, have to give it a try, right?
  13. Nice! Your wife is a luckly woman!
  14. Thanks! I am pretty excited by this too!
  15. Hi bro, Sorry for my crappy pics. The bevelling on the DSN is good, just like gen. the one on the cartel dial is crap, there isn't any!
  16. Hi guys, Just received the gen dial and hand set for my Pam 88. I have taken some pics for a comparison shot on differences between the gen, DSN and rep dials. This is not a review but rather just a shot for everyone to see the difference and also offer any comments. I am in no position to do any review but would love to hear feedback from anyone especially the many Pam experts we have here! First a shot of all 3 dials. DSN dial on left, gen dial in the middle and the ultimate 88 from Cartel Individual shots of the dials DSN gen dial Ultimate version Pam 88 At first glance, there really isn't any difference (at least to me). I must say that both DSN and the cartel have really made a good dial. The only real difference would be the silver sub-dials. To me, the DSN is a bit too silverish, the cartel rep dial a bit too brownish. However, I believe that the DSN sub-dial is closer to gen. Text printing is good on both rep dials. However, when compared to gen dial, the cartel printing is bolder and therefore more gen like. Maybe its the distortion from crystal but it seems the cartel rep dial text is a bit bigger than gen. DSN loses out in this prospect in the sense that the printing seems lighter. For the date window, I think the DSN dial is really great! There is a nice beveling same as gen! The date-window on the cartel dial is terrible. To me, it looks like just a cuto-out without any bevelling. Lume markers are very good on both DSN and cartel dial, very similar to gen. For me however, I think that DSN is a just a bit darker (greenish?) and the cartel markers are spot on! It would seem that both DSN and rep dials are really good but if I had to chose between them, I would go with the DSN dial for the more accurate sub-dial and better DW bevelling. Finally, a shot of my gen dial and hand set! Now need to source for a few more parts and it will be off to The Zigmeister to make my Pam 88 into an ultimate franken! Thanks for looking and would really welcome any comments and feedback.

    Piaget

    Hi, Has anyone ever bought the Piaget rep watches, especially the "Upstream". Would love to hear some feedback or opinions as I am contemplating getting one. Looks different and quite nice! Thanks!
  18. This is the one watch I would want to see repped. GP Sea Hawk II. Good size 42mm. Looks good on rubber, leather and to me, one of the best bracelets! The grey dial looks fantatstic! Don't think its too difficult!
  19. Hi, Unfortunately for me, I really can't make it! Was really hoping to meet you great guys, coolfire, samurai and all but unfortunately, the timing is bad! Will make it to the next one Have a good time you guys! Really rather be going to this than the dinner that I will be going to!
  20. Yes, your 89 looks quite good. So maybe a Lello DW should do the trick. will this stem wotk directly on a T48 crown. Does it need any adapter?
