diver strap looks great! make the watch really look solid.

seems like carbon fiber has an almost camo fleck pattern to it. Does the pattern "disappear" at certain angles? from the pic is looks like the bezel is black.

I'm wondering if there's a mod some will come up with to maybe tone down the contrasts?

none the less, a seriously looking beast!

you can easily do the mod without a dremel. Just remove the pushers and lay a piece of fine sandpaper down and take the pusher in your fingers and lightly take it over the paper to sand down the edge and round it off. Go slow and light and you wont mess it up

I didn't want to use a dremel cuz it's easy to slip and hit the case or shave off too much rubber

I want to try that but I dont know how to remove the pushers...I saw a pics of some pushers disassembled, it looked like they unscrewed directly from the case?

If not, I really dont want to open case and remove movement to get to the pushers.

Any idea what size Fine sandpaper would work best?

Lost the same one as well on my Montauk. I checked with ToroBravo and he's sending me a replacement to repair it.

I believe that AP Bands has the set to replace the one you have missing. The cost is $39 plus shipping. Not sure if there are other places to get one.

Thanks for the link!, I might try Toro as well, just wasnt sure the dealers stocked these bit parts.

Thats the first time I've seen female screw strap on and bum In the same sentence.

Well played gaizka...well played Indeed.

...thanks! wish I was that clever to have meant to do that!

looks like I lost the female lug to the screw bar holding strap on my Eod. bummed!

since I did not get this from dealer, anyone one where I can source the part? of if you got an extra one pm me!

thanks,

recently screwed

Anyone want my old pushers? I'll be glad to round 'em off to look like my gen pushers with the ol' Dremel....

uh oh Cheiftang...tried sending you PM but looks like you are full.

Send me a PM.

thanks!

Ill take em! PM on the way...

It was me who wrote that.

The easiest way to shave the pushers is when they are spinning.

So it really doesn't matter if it's done with a Dremel or with a regular drill.

You just need to be sure not to over-tighten it because the pusher tubes are fragile.

Realy funny to see that the dealers used another idea from me.

FIrst they copied my date wheel fix for the Big Pilot and now they are shaving the pushers as well?

...sounds like you should contract yourself out as-"modification consultant"

The would be great for the delaers to add to their sales pitch. After all the 1:1 ,Gen used as example, etc language, now they could say;

"expert mod consultant reviewed and approved"

this would be for a watch purchased from another member. Hence the DIY angle. would be great if the Dealers sold the pushers by themselves!

...I read how someone used a Dremel to round out the ROO pushers. Since I dont own a Dremel, does anyone think I could use, say a Fine grit nail file to get results? Anyone use something another than a dremel?

...I was kinda worried about that. I dont have enough skill to work around that and I dont think even rep friendly watchmakers would be willing take that on.

thanks!

I'm looking to repurchase a rep ingy 3227... Had a great one but sold it and now miss it- anyways , I found a gen dial but not sure if I should buy because I don't know if it will fit a rep case?

Anyone know or own an example?

... now to find the correct length hands. which leads to my mini rant-?really china, made a perfect rep but the hands short by 000.23 mm?( made up that measurement!)

Very nice 28...have seen one of those in awhile! I remember back when I had a gen and i was on paneristi....I could understand what the big deal was about the arrowhand. Of course, now I know.

Thanks for the reply!

(hate being the new guy with the questions)...

Did the seller repost the watch? I was thinking, either he did a side deal with someone else...or just got spooked but still since you already paid, should have honored the deal.

I would be miffed if I saw it back up for sale.

very sorry, if this question has been asked before....(it probaly has a million times but I did not see a search function on this site)

Is the current selection of seconds@12 offered by dealers including the extra jewel? or it is by specfic model only?

I was looking for a Black Themes but really did not want to have to send it out for a service before I got to wear it properly.

I am usually over at RG but this AP section seems more active(sshhh)

thanks!!

Thanks for the welcome!

...HA! dont worry just getting used to the layout here.

I will post pics soon, nothing special... just a H factory 111m with 6497-2 hi beat and the newly released 000 ( current favorite)

I went through a buying and selling spourt over at RG..351, 026, 176...so now I've calmed down and am patiently waiting for the 243 and ( signed the petition over at RG) hopefully the 390.

I didnt see a GTG section? am I missing it or is there not one here?

Hello all!

...wandered over from RG. Just seeing how this post will look like with different options

I'm a big Panerai fan-couldnt get enough over there, so here I am.
