  1. roger: you may be right. it looks as if they have the diamonds built on to lip of lip Evo dial. not sure how much height that may add to the outer bezel ring...

    But, i think the mod that may have to happen is longer and possibly custom bent movement/dial holders so that the dial can be pushed closer to the case, compared to the skyland dial...

    we will see...

  2. after one night... apparently, he didn't line up the hands to clear each other... so, NOW i have scratched hands!

    Luckily, the dial looks good. minus the flaking lume sitting on it and the finger print on one of the numerals...

    My god. first i get screwed on Risti for $3K, now i got two reps out of commision... WHATS NEXT?!?!

  3. UPDATE: well i was too late and when i showed up he had already figured out that it did NOT come through the front!

    However, he did not pay attention to detail and he stabbed through the minute hand which now has a hole where LUME once was...

    I had no idea that the hands were hollow filled with Lume...

    any one have a source for gen hands?

  4. i am trying out a new rep-friendly watch repair person in town...

    I am swapping out the dials on my super avenger...

    He is telling me that it cant come out the back of the watch and that he had to remove bezel and crystal to remove it from the front of the watch...

    I don't think that is possible... and i am about to run down there an snatch it from him before he makes a hell of a mess for me...

    Thoughts?

  5. well... my biggest hope is a SHARPER CASE!!! (enough with the rounded off lugs!!!) also, correct CG and Crown... the latest models have been lacking those details needed to call it a "super" whatever... even with the intro of V's CG which was (to me) astronomically priced and T Crowns, i still think that a 1:1ish rep could be achieved WITHOUT mods.... i just hope to see the "fixes" that we should have had been months and years ago!

  6. Simply putting the MBW/MBK badge on a rep does not make it a "Good" rep. PF is trying to create a buzz by leveraging the MBW brand. Truth is there are a lot of flaws in the model posted. He is trying to rope in the Noob who sees MBW and flips out their credit card without doing the research.

    very true!

    however, i see a glimmer of hope in these models... and who knows, these may not even be "MBW" models... if you can remember, they were selling noobmariners as MBW/MBK but certainly were not MBW models by any means... i am hoping that these are in fact just standard CH models that have been updated... one could hope i guess...

  7. I keep hearing that a NEW batch of MBW/MBK Pam models are going to surface soon... (some being 40mm for those small wrists)

    After a thread over at RG started, I got excited seeing the pics, but then the thread was later closed due to idiocy...

    I see that some of the flaws of 'today' may be fixed 'tomorrow'...

    This picture surfaced showing the curved CG and the roller lock. (not to mention the claims of 1:1, whatever)

    I am excited that i see this finally being released however nobody has any information as to which models are being released...

    DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY INFO? I'm sure it will start to surface, eventually... but when some of us see images of models to come, some of us get antsy!

    Thanks!
