i dont undertand why 5513 mattes are so high, for 1k more, you can get a 1680 matte white! 

I had a whole shopping list saved on my eBay watch list to do a 1016.

I decided to just wait out one to go on sale.

If anyone has a jmb 1016 to sell, pm me.

How to indentify GEN fat font?

Also, is there a deviation among gens on the BLUE/RED Line?

notice one has more blue on the 6 side vs the other, and same on the 18 side.

Consider the vintage sd as a quality rep out of the box too

anyone know who has a great rep endlink and bracelet for it?

Awesome! Gen Tudor sub vintages are hot right now and have appreciated

My JLC has been sidelined after giving my 1.5yr old a scratch while carrying her.

For a regular pam Noob 111n or 390

For a rad, 288 or 380

For a Sub, 243

Or any combo of these 5

Thanks to this thread:

The camo strap looks best I think on it:

Its almost there! jus need to fix that date wheel

@Sneed

I definitely want an open 6/9 Silver datewheel.

So this datewheel sits on top of the current datewheel and will be left justified?

Awesome! Where can I get the DWO?

Seems like a really good idea to me but why not go the whole hog? Get the 127 glass and a gen bracelet et voila!

The yuki dial fails me on the DW, the mag is 1.5 and it helps "mask" the misaligned DW. Plus the service crystal is epoxied on! I wanted to keep as many things as is Sony can turn the mod around easily if I wanted to.

When I read that the 1680 and Tudor Subs shared the case, it gave me the idea for a franken:

Use a yuki dial on a Gen tudor.

Lucked out and found a local seller of a 76100 and sent it to my smith with a yuki Dial.

The gen Tudor came with mercedes hands so I left those in.

I was going to replace the crystal and install a 127, since it had what looked like a service crystal.

Compared to my Snowflake the tophat was noticeably lower, PLUS the magnification was less on the cyclops.

But eventually I left it alone because unfortunately, the DW window did not align.

The 1680 red dials window was bigger and right justified as opposed to the Gen Tudor which was left justified.

Since it is for my own fun, and the dial mod is reversible I decided to go for it anyways.

Here is what I got:

where did you source the gen strap?

My noobmariner/ classic sd are my go to.

Rep to me

Just got back into the PAM game. I got mine from another member, sold my PAMs (last year) but kept my straps, good thing because I love this Noob 111N, anyone know which version mine is?

I test drive reps to buy gens. But sometimes I go the opposite direction if the rep is that good (or good enough)

I test drove APs and fell in love with a gen Panda when I tried it on.

I own the gen Sea Dweller and recently acquired an Ultimate SD (check out my review).

Now I want to sell my gen SD for a DSSD, after trying out a Noob DSSD.

I've never bought a gen Panerai, even though I could. because the reps have always been that good.

Damn dude! I have two little girls of my own and my blood boiled...

Glad she is safe.

This is the reason why The only mod was to lift the pearl out. To me the pearl was the only thing that bothered me on the bezel.

Bezel is good enough as it is.

The point of the whole review was, for $128 it was a great rep.

By the way, I kept my Gen. It's just taking a long hibernation in the safe for now...

Which 005 rep is that pls and from who?

What's the gen crystal part # please? It the only thing I've considered upgrading.

I Saw that thread a few months back. I am a member there since I have/ had gens....

I thought he used an aftermarket dial and hands.

I also mentioned that frankens like these are common in vintage and that I would avoid buying really expensive pieces because of the Frankenstein practice...
