  2. The Closest Pam 249 dial See page 10 for the Final Piece

    in The Panerai Area

    Posted

    Hello,

    No pre-paid for this project. I invest both money and effort by myself, dont worry.

    For update, since I want to surprise you guy. my dial will be launched within this May.

    For List of the member who want this dial, let me finish my dial project first then I will contact you guy 1 by 1.

    Moreover, hence this project is limited, I might not be able to get the order for more than 1 dial per each person. :) I want to share this dial to the member as much as possible. Hope you guy understand this point.

    For price, I can say it wont be cheap :p But there will have a gift for who are in the first group buy list.

    Thanks for everyone who follow up my post from the beginning. :) I already got the lesson from my previous project. So I put effort the most in this project. :) As a hint, the dial of Pam 249 is one of the hardest dial to replicate to 100%. By now, 90% close to gen guarantee. Another 10% is in during correction. Everyone already wait for this project for almost a year. Only 2 months more, this wont be the problem, right? :victory:

    Best regards,

    Paul

    To be honest, I have never put any interest in the vintage Rolex before. However, it was just my luck, today I had to change my mind because I meet this model in person. I am sure this watch have a lot of rooms to go for modification (The first thing was its bezel, there is no lumed dot so I took it out.) which I admit that I will definitely.

    Anyway, this one might be the beater for some of us as well as me :D. Watch is water resistant that you can swim with it. :D

    Look at its printed letter on the dial and you will love this one like me. :D

    Hmmmm... Rehaut looks like it's got quite a bit of angle, and perhaps too shallow.

    The crown height doesn't look to be the correct position/height at profile to accept a gen 3135 either.

    Thanks for your info, mate. :) Then I know how I can manage to this watches either return it back to him or let's try to modded it. :)

    Interesting. So they are TW subs, maybe bests if they take gen parts. You definitely need a gen crown- those crowns are way too big! Bezel insert is the old style, kinda out of place on a modern sub, and a better pearl would help also. Crown guards look decent. I'm not a fan of the rehaut engraving, but it could be polished off I guess. And if the price is right, it could be a good sub with a few mods.

    Yes, this version just came from Taiwan. The supplier confirmed to me that this one can put gen parts in as well as ETA 2894 movement. For Price of this one is $350 and you go to do the modded by yourself.

    problems: dial , crystal is too tall, datefon, engraving is off, insert is also bad

    despite all that those crown guards dont look too bad... also the hands seems ok. does it indeed accept gen parts? lets see the crown tube and maybe if you could put the bezel ring off and get a look at that retaining ring underneath

    Thanks for your recommendation, mate. This is what I need to mod my Sub. :D

    What sort of prices are you looking at for these? Are they making a good SD rep as well? We really need a well made, accurate SD to replace the WM9 project watch which is slowly fading into the sunset :angry2:

    Price is $350 in here, mate. They did mode to order of good SD and YM as well. WM9 might want time to finish his project, mate. :D His work is art so give him sometimes then you wont be disappointed for sure. :D

    Hello guys,

    I just got a chance to take these Rolex Submariners from Taiwan dealer. :)

    For me, the first thing that make me got these 2 is the crystal of them because once I touch the crystal, I feel like it is in one piece (even the area between the cyclop and crystal).

    He said it can accept all gen parts + gen movement which I havn't tried it yet but only this is so nice for me. :) Plus, it is cheaper than other hi-ened sub replica. :D

    Enjoy!

    Dear RWG fellow,

    Sorry to getting back to you so late, mate. However, I have to get the work done on dial and hands before the end of this year. Please wait. :)

    I promise, at the end of this year, you will get OEM dial + OEM hands set from me. :) And the price of my set wont be super expensive as someone mentioned. :p As you might know gen set is going to like EURO 850. So what about my OEM. :D

    For listing, I am checking all the contacta from you guys both in this post, e-mail, and PM.

    For the first group, I am able to get participants limit at 100 person only. :)

    I will update everything and will let you know as soon as possible.

    Best regards,

    Paul
