how much it will cost to do re-lume and swiss movement regulated and lubed.

I have exact same 029 but I hate lume is too green. I almost sell it just because of lume.

I love everything-else...

Please let me know how much cost to do this.

Thank you!

Sorry it was typo. 188K daylights. I have 187 and ordered 188, I may keep one of them. Thank you for your input. I do not mind wear big. actually like a lot. only problem is get too much attention... if same quality, I may keep 188K?! I do not know yet... will wait until 188K arrive.

it seems like same movement and came out about same time.

I saw the pic but CG is not line up right. but Is final product good?

here is link...

I want that too...

DSN made one as you may know. I also want to know if there is:)

Thanks! I also got vintage black for my Pam029. it is good too. Thewatchboys's quality is great. and price very reasonable. $60-70

Thank you! stich color matches lume color. I like it!

Here is my new strap from ThewatchBoys.com for my new Pam 187G.

Vintage Dark Brown 26/26 with PreV buckle and Tan Stiches.

I love it!!

Thewatchboys.com have nice selection of 26mm. now on sale. around 60-70 US$. even crocodile less then $100 now.

It seems no collecting dust at all.

I heard that rep manufacturer was waterproofing with basic dry test machine, and we asked and paid for it, they have more intentive vacuum test or something.

As I saw Panerai Factory Video, Gen is doing dry method and intensive wet test to ensure 300mm - 1000m proof.

I am not professional or expert but this is what I know.

supposed to be up to 3-5 ATM (30m-50m).

But dry test only. I will not take a risk at this point.

Rubber strap is ok and buckle seems good. however, OP logo seems a little bit not clear.

please see attached pic. (shot by my iphone so not clear but...)

I had same issue with my first rep 253 a week ago. I needed to send it back...

BTW where I can find those spring strap pins??

I may need those... I like to swap the strap all the time. I do not want to see same thing happen again.

MT

Thank you all. I also have mustard color croco strap. I like it, but my wife like black better:)

I was planning to take some pics better tomorrow. but it seems speed is key.

So here we go!
