I like the AR, makes reading the date so much easier. Let's say this is a 2010 random series LV What would you recommend todo with the pearl?

Not a gen crystal but one from BC. the mods are: TC SUB 1. TC V series Sub as mid case (no rehaut engraving and gen crown position 2. Aligned the 6 and 9 indices on dial. 3. V2 Bracelet SEL fit 4. BC Crystal I'm planning to put in a V2 Datewheel and maybe the V3 bracelet and do something about the pearl.

Just want to show my daily to you:

I agree

I have two of these now, one gen but (the doppler chronograph), and because it's such a great watch expensive as i got a rep as daily beater. It's like taking my ferrari to go shopping, you just don't like doing it. My rep 3717 has a gen movement and double AR. It's verry close to a gen. I got the watch of Concepta, not the most communicative lad and you need to chase him up but he delivers. He got me rep 31717 with gen a movement and it runs 0,5sec fast a day, that's impressive. One tell tell on the rep is the crown, if there is something you want to mod, then it's the crown. I can spot a fake 3717 from a mile away

this is a 22mm, works perfectly, the leather will compresses only slightly, it's better than having a gap between the lugs and strap

Black works too - picture of mine- much better looking on smarter clothing

I agree, i asked him pictures of the 250 and the movement but he's back on the 11th he told me. King's probably celebrating new year as we speak. I'll keep you guys posted.

I'll double check with King. He said the 250 is currently only available with the swiss 7753, not with the A7753, which probably indicates the movement is not a straight swap. King's message:

Sure mate. In the meantime enjoy my 111

yes you are right i just got word from king, he's offering a 250 with a swiss 7753 for $825usd, that's expensive to some but it's still only a 1/10th of the price of a gen + plenty of cash left get the movement serviced. He said he'll be back at work the 11th, i'll put in my order then.

thanks i just sent a message to king to see if he has this in stock, i don't see the model on his site. I do see he has the swiss movement, maybe be can make me one with swiss movement.

Thanks for the information, i just read the review. Which vendor would you recommend to the best 250? I do think i'll have somebody swap out the A7753 with a swiss 7753 movement, i'm a bit fussy when it comes to movements

Thanks guys, that's really helpfull. Do they provide these with a swiss ETA movement as well or only asian?

Hi all, i have a wonderfull PAM111h but i'm really missing the date function and a working chrono and now in the market for a 250 Before i go out and spend 6K euros on a 250 i would like to know if there is anybody here that can find me a Franken Pam 250. I had a look at davidsen's PAM196, the movement is good but it has quite a number of flaws, the crown being an absolute no-no and it's an old model. I'm looking for something really really close to the gen 250. if you have any ideas let me know. Max
