  1. The size for these crystals are 30.5mm and 2.5mm diameter. You can get an authentic Omega crystal from Ofrei - but it will run ya about $150. I beleive it's single sided A/R. I picked one up a generic single-side A/R saphire crystal from Krysworks for about $70. They sell non A/R cyrstals for about $45. Send it to Cheif and get it double A/R.
  2. Congrats. I used a the rep rubber strap and had to mod it a bit to fit the rep case. At first, loved it, then decided I need the gen rubber strap. Big difference between the gen and rep rubber strap. Wear it well.
  3. Just paint the rest of the GMT hand and it's a very nice piece.
  4. Thanks everyone for the help. My first Pam and I'm already in trouble Saw these the on the bay, will these work? Screws & Tubes
  5. Always knew (and saw) the love for Pams on this forum as well as the other forums. Didn't know what the big deal was until I finally grabbed from a member on RG - it's an asian version Pam 253 Flyback. Wow, great looking watch. Only problem - the watch was sold with any straps. I want to pick up a kick-ass strap for this watch - either leather or rubber. I know the lugs are 24mm, but here's my issue where I need some help. What are tubes/screws? I see them up for sale on the bay. Does this watch take a regular 24mm springbar or tube/screw. Help a Pam noob ?!?!?
  6. The OEM rubber strap will fit the case. Just picked one up and swapped out the rep strap for the gen strap. In order to minimize the gab when wearing the strap, I just used 2mm thick springbars. Ill post some pics hopefully tonight.
  7. You're lucky that she provided you a refund. Few of us had to perform Chargebacks with our CC with her ending communication with us.
  8. WRESTLEMANIA 24 IS GOING ON AT THE CITRUS BOWL IN ORLANDO.....TAKE THE FAMILY TO SEE SOME GOOD OL' WRESTLING
  9. I really need to get a Pam. This one could be the one for me.
  10. Similiar to the Omega rubber straps - the damn dust. No matter how much you clean the straps, dust appears just like that. However, instead of paying $$$ for the Omega, fortunately, the OEM Breitling straps are about $75. Got one from the bay for $55.
  11. Yeah, never wear reps to an AD. I wont wear any of my reps, even those with gen parts, to an AD. Just don't feel like dealing with their BS about buying reps. If they tell ya how good the reps are nowadays, then yes - why buy a gen, right?
  12. Nah - gonna keep it - use it as a daily beater (wearing it as we speak). Great watches. Wear it well my friend !
  13. Hmmm....did you remove your latest purchase from your Signature ?!?!?
  14. Weren't the 2nd gen POs 40mm ? If you look at Jay's POs, they're slightly different than Trusty's and Josh's. If I had my black insert, I would have sent it to ya.
  15. I would love too, but after getting some crystals back from you from your latest double A/R......I want to get all of my crystals double A/R. Here's a though - even though I know its not done with the gens - getting the crystal on the sub/ssd double A/R ?!?!?
  16. BACKGROUND Picked up a SSD back in December. I planned on modding it by doing the following: - CGs - Gen crown and tube - Insert/Pearl - Possible Relume However, last month, picked up a modded MBW modern Sub that was already modded with: - Noob dial - Noob date overlay - Noob bracelet The possible mods I had planned were- - CGs - Gen crown and tube - New Insert/Pearl (and recess the insert) - remove the cyclops and move and align it center over the date - possible re-lume ISSUE Looking at these two projects, it will take $$$$ to get both of these babies modded. However, thinking about selling one to fund the other. The question is - which one to keep, which one to mod? I have always been an Omega fan, moved into Breitling, but always wanted a Rollie. Any thoughts? Advice?
  17. The moment someone makes threats against the Mod team which not only affects the Mods, but all of us as members, something has to be done. It may not be a popular decision in the view or many, but a right one nonetheless.
  18. Reappear? You're gonna give me the blue SMP Marrick
  19. Defintely on my list. I saw a white dial asian version on cq and Silix says he can source a white dial version, but rather get the swiss version.
  20. Execute the chargeback. You're not going to get a reply back from her or even a response back. I know when her supplier had shipped out the wrong ones to many members, she was [censored]. She had to collect the watches and then ship them back to her supplier. Who knows, once her supplier picked them up, if they had refunded her. If they didn't, well, she has our money to make up for it.
  21. I've seen Vac's examples over at RG and they're amazing. Fantastic painting The Zigmeister.
  22. Francisco - you're very lucky. She promised me and another member a full refund and guess what - no refund and its been a week. When I ask her for any updates - no replies. I notice she's "sold-out" of these on ioffer. Well, me and the other member had to perform a chargeback with our CC. For those who got the watch - congrats. I am very jealous and if anyone decides to part with theirs for any reason - I will be more than happy to take it off your hands Agreed. At first she had some good communication and provided the correct watches to certain members. But when other members received the wrong one, we shipped it back waiting for either the correct one or refund and received neither.
  23. Address of his watchsmith? Tell Andrew that you will send it to him and you would like a replacement - NEW WATCH for basically a DOA movement.
