Nice....

Unfortunately I don't have a pic but some details.

The 15002 has

- No numerals

- Thinner and longer hour markers

- Swiss Made or T-Swiss Made-T below the six o'clock marker, not besides it

- no date window surrounding

- The word AUTOMATIC between the hand post and six o'clock, not below the AP logo

- Lume between the A and the P in the logo.

The (for me) biggest flaw of the MBW Jumbo is the case construction, which is completely wrong.

A Royal Oak Jumbo - and that is the clue to the watch - does not have a case back!! It is a one piece case!!

I know about the case matter, mate. However, I did ask him about this as well. He would do the new case if we have the genuine one for him + 1000 pieces order

So this is the closest that we can do for this one.

Paul

The dial is stil wrong for a 15002, which was the last Jumbo with closed case back.

Thanks for a very good comment. Do you have pics of the genuine one? If I have the gen dial for AP 15002, I can ask him to replicate the dial for almost 95%. However, the minimum order have to increase to 100 pieces.

It is likely just me but I don't like the lack of a seconds hand.

Looks too much like quartz to me. Why not build them with a quartz movement and lower the price, the caseback is closed so no one would know the difference.

The versions with a seconds hand were only made with open casebacks, is that accurate?

If they made a gen with a seconds hand and closed caseback, then I think I would be up for that rep.

If we did that, this modded would nothing rather than MBW with quartz movement. Anyway, I can try and ask him whether he will do it or not. Quite good idea anyway.

Cheers,

Paul

I would be in if photos of the final product would become available.

This is the pre-order, mate. As per the first group buy will cheaper than the others.

Cheers,

Paul

What are the dial choices? SS strap or leather?

It will come with SS bracelet. The dial available is black, blue, white, and grey (probably).

Only 22 to go

nice one.

Be patient, mate. I might want 2 of them. so there are only 23 people to go

Here is the original piece that I got from MBW as an example to have modification. As in pics, the screw will be replaced with white gold plated screws and its back will be solid case back.

Guys,

It has been more than 4 months for this project. Thanks for everyone who join this group buy. If there were no one interest, this project would not happen. Here we go

Cheers,

Paul

@ archibald

Yes, I think I can ask him to get the screw as close as gen white gold.

@ Sql_pl

You can should the dial you want, my friend. So far, there is black, white, blue, and grey dial.

Moreover, guess what I got from him today once I talked about this project

Here is the original piece that I got from MBW as an example to have modification. As in pics, the screw will be replaced with white gold plated screws and its back will be solid case back.

Price of this will be $330 + shipping for group buy. He want the minimum order of 30 pieces. Please let me know who will be in this project.

Cheers,

Paul

That would fix quite a lot of flaws. How much this special run piece would cost us? I may be in.

Price is depended on the quantity. We, who are the first group to try it, might get it cheaper than the others who buy this model later once it is completed. Price ranged for the first batch should be aroun $300 - $320.

I'm in, for sure. Any chance to remove the secs hand too?

I think he can do that as well.

Why dont we list we want want him to modify the MBW AP RO Jumbo? and I will discuss with him whether which one he can do for us.

Cheers,

Paul

Those flaws you guys mentions are quite the flaws on this MBW model. However, for the screws, I did ask who did this model. He said he can custom made the screws to be in white gold color with solid caseback with the minimum order of 40 pieces.

If you guy are interested, please let me know.

Cheers,

Paul

Nice Pam 192.

Here is my gen 172 on LV strap The gen's case is made from Tantalum which is heavier than Titanium case.

Cheers,

Paul

Thanks for reply. Actually, there is one guy offer this model in Ioffer.

Cheers,

Paul

I just got the gen dial of Pam 25 and wonder if anyone is used to see the replica Pam 025 out there. For me, I am used to EL and River offered us once long time ago since TRC.

Do you know where I can get it in these days?

Cheers,

Paul
