Yep, Japanic is right - Im referring to the 2008onwards Vintage that they have produced to celebrate so many years of IWC. Particularly looking for the Aquatimer.

Do any good-uns exist?

mmm Vintage look but what models? (from Meisturwerks pictures)

There was an O ring on the case back, but how about the crown/stem?

Took the case back off, gentle heat with hair dryer at distance and then sealed bag for a few hours with silica gel. Now bone try and running sweet - thank you all! How could I find out if the gasket is in there?

Thanks for the advice lads. So should my pam have handled a splash in the shower?

but its replica? I didn't think they were waterproof?

Thank you. Unfortunately I dont have the correct tools, can it be done with any other tools? I have a reasonable selection.

Just back from a trip to Hong Kong and took the opportunity to spy on some nice watches. One that stood out for me was the Vintage Aquatimer seen below: I currently have the Aquatimer 2000 with rubber strap and wonder if it would be possible to get a black croco strap to fit? Thank you

D'oh! Girl was in the shower and I reached in to adjust taps and got my panerai wet... Though nothing of it but half an hour later the dial was steamed up and it seems to be out of time now. Fixes or is it fff'd? and unfortunately I don t have pictures..

Exactly that pete, the number are too high in the window so almost get cut off. Can't be fixed then?

So I've got hooked with the rep modding and will be sending my 359 away for AR treatment ASAP. Next thing that is bothering me though is the Date wheel alignment. What can fix this and who in UK or EU?

Thanks pete!

Thanks lads. I can't find Uwe though - link?

After my previous thread on disapointment in the AR of my 359, Im looking to go the modding route as so many do. Please post before and after pics of AR jobs, preferably PAMs and particularly 359. No munipulated lighting pics Thank you

Pam is almost like a mirror and the IWC as if there is no glass.

What sorta money does it take to get a better AR?

Just received my pam359 from Mary - top service btw. The quality of the watch seems really good but I am very disappointed with AR - it's almost like a mirror. This is my first rep and maybe I expected too much?

Looking for a ladies replica watch. Its a Raymond Weil Parsifal 2 tone set in diamonds This one: Thank you

So who does the best and cheapest version of 359?

Where can I get a 372?

I seem to be preferring the beige lumed pams and was just wondering what reps there is out there that I've missed. Tobacco dial is nice is as well. 359 and 372 are well noted

I like it alot. My fav coloured lume. Where are the hands though... Link to where to buy?

So I've narrowed down to what my first rep will be.. Either the 351 or 359. Out of these two, is there much in between them in terms of quality of build and replication. I love them both but prefer the brown croco strap of 351. Please include links where you can as there's so many "best ever"/ "v2s" / "h factory" etc and I'm still not to grips with that. Many thanks Ps. Is there a dummies guide to ordering somewhere or is it as simple as ordering off of the a ADs website.
