Gen 7835's aren't that expensive and fit OK on a DW case. These are 357 endlinks.

Tom, do you by chance have side view pic of the end link fitment at the lug. I'm interested how much the end link covers the lug....does that make sense. I know some end links are not tall enough and leave a big gap at the top.

Thanks!

Using PayPal choose "gift" option for " friends and family". This allows neither party to deal with "fees". It is designed to be able to send money for reasons other than goods/ services. This is the way most m2m purchases are made. Obviously there is a level of trust involved, as your recourse is less strong if the deal goes bad. But remember what you are buying. I've never had a problem, and most folks are pretty reputable.

It's a 7750. I saw pics of yours too...looks great. Brothers!

Hello friends,

I want to present and share pics of my new PAM 237H. This is a NCchef build, using Gen dial, hands, crown, and strap. This is really my first nice PAM. I tried a 111 a few yrs ago, but didn't think much of it. I've been mainly a rolex guy, and vintage at that, so primarily 40mm or below. But this 44mm amazingly feels balanced and not too large. I fell in love immediately on first sight, and it's rising to the top of the rotation.

I want to take a moment to comment on dealing w NCchef. He has been utterly amazing throughout the entire process, before and after the sale. The build is indistinguishable from the Gen, and his work is impeccable. And just the sincerest and nicest fella you could hope to deal with. A true friend. Thanks NCchef!

On to a few pics(credit to NC for some of these):

got one. thanks!

Hi there. I've scoured the fora and 'net but can't find a rep Panerai Tang/ardillon buckle(22mm polished). I'm finding a few sterile ones without any PAM inscription/logo like these:

Does anyone have an idea if and where I can source a better buckle? I was hoping to find something similar to this:

Thank you,

I have vintage sub with friction bezel that has lost most of its "friction". I followed a post I read that said to remove bezel and put a few "bends" in the washer under the bezel. However this particular build doesn't have a washer.

I have heard such solutions as a little clear nail polish under the bezel for friction...to wrap dental floss....?

Can anyone offer a good solution?

Thank you,

KD

great review, as well as your review of the rep vs gen straps.

Can you confirm the actual color of the thread on the Gen strap for the Fifty Fathoms? I have reviewed numerous photos and sometimes it looks steel/gray, but other times just black. The bradystrap sailcloth comes in black, steel, or platinum stitching , so im wondering which choice would be closest to the gen.

thanks

Hey gang.

I have a TC V6 w a gen insert and gen crystal. I love this watch!

I've never seen a gen to compare, but wonder what "tells" exist btwn the TC w these gen parts and a true GEN. Can anyone share that knowledge? I'm wondering if the sweep of the secs on a TC mvmt is diff than a gen?

Thanks,

KD
