Thanks, when can we have your captured version!

It's the PAM111H from DSN! (search DSN!) BTW: Check the dealer section, I think there's a code you could use at PANATIME to get a 10% discount!

Don't go to a watch store! Check Panatime.com and this site (I've ordered a lot from them) have some really nice cheap PAM leather straps: http://getat-watch.com Good luck!

Awesome job, Puggy! I wish I have half of your Skills, both in watchmaking and photography......you're my new IDOL!

Spoken like a Pro! I love it! My take......don't be so Anal like some folks! If it's close enough, it's good enough, my mantra! Just get some good straps for your PAMs and they're good to go! Here's two examples of the PAM111, first one is a DSN H... and one I just built for around $150....not counting the strap! and both side by side: Which one do you go for? Hope that helps! Hike

RWG Joke of the Day: Mujibar was trying to get a job in India .. The Personnel Manager said, 'Mujibar, you have passed all the tests, except one. Unless you pass it , you cannot qualify for this job.' Mujibar said, 'I am ready.' The manager said, 'Make a sentence using the words Yellow, Pink, and Green .' Mujibar thought for a few minutes and said, 'Mister manager, I am ready' The manager said, 'Go ahead.' Mujibar said, 'The telephone goes green, green , and I pink it up, and say, Yellow, this is Mujibar..' Mujibar now works at a call center. No doubt you have spoken to him. I know I have.

Old pix, but wearing this today:

You paid $600-$900 for that? Really? Wow! Maybe you have a swiss movement in it!

Very informative! And you're shots are not bad either! Thanks!

I was thinking about! I have a bottle, but I think I should get a waterproof one! I think Loctite makes one! Thanks!

Thanks everyone who had commented! I appreciate all the inputs! Hey dluddy! Read below!~ Red......sorry Dude! I find it distracting taking shots while I'm working on these babies! I'm not like TJ who's ambidextrous! I believe a lot have been posted already by our more experienced Builders/modders! But experienced wise during this build: - it was a pain (always is for me) putting in the second hand!!! - I popped the keyless works twice..... , too excited I guess, but you get better the more you do the repair! - It took me two cuts of the stem to get the perfect length! Anyho.....an update, and to update some questions: - Case is comparable to the ones used by our dealers here!The crown guard and lever are pretty solid! I could say that it's actually better than some of the usual cheaper PAMs around! Now the sad/frustrating part: - I just came back from my watchsmith to have it waterresistance tested and the sucker failed at 1ATM! That's a bummer! Now I can't even shower with it....it fogs up by just running it under the faucet! - Watchsmith and I think its the crystal gasket, so we popped it, and lo and behold, it was kinked! This is what I'm tokin 'bout: Now I gotta send it back (the case)! Jezzzzzzzz! It's like having sax and then withdraw at the last moment! That kind of feeling! Well, I'll let you guys know how this one turns out! The other two cases I got from them were fine in the water torture test!

New PAM111Hike!

Here's my third foray into the watch building/assembling hobby of ours!I spent Sunday night building this.....the new PAM111Hike! All watch parts came from getat-watch.com except for the dial (got it from one of our members here!). Goal is to build a new PAM REP as an all around weekend beater.....and this is how it came out...... BTW: all these shots were taken with natural light and camera set to Aperture Priority and ISO1600....these new DSLR are blowing me away.....hardly any noise at all on all my shots......Amazing! Enough rumbling: with it's twin: and the wristie: Thanks for looking! Hike

Congrats and join the club! Ups.....downs....ups......kids........school......college......and on and on and on! But, hey life goes on! Have fun and enjoy! Cheers~!
