Just came back from a short holiday with my family.
I saw my wife coming out of the saune with her gen Ebel on her wrist.
My first reaction als o was neverd ot this again but ......
Everything is still OK like the wodka thing . I won't try it with my 1911 because it's on a leather strap but i'm almost shure it will survive the sauna also.

Guys sorry, after reading my own reply i come to the conclusion that i have to take a break with the family.
The Fiddy 1950 is still intact. I'm planning to uncase the movement, which has to be done via the front .
What i needed to know who's selling rings that are big enough for the Fiddy.
If i don't need to remove the bezel for taking of the crystal i still need the ring to press the bezel inplace.
Thanks guys for help , problem is solved

Thanks guy's i have to be more specific.
What i'm looking for is the size of the ring to press the bezel of PAM127 Fiddy into place.
The reason why i think i need this ring is.
Navigater had this watch for a relume job of the hands and dail and a canion pin fix.
He told me that he couldn't do the job because the movement had to be uncased via the front.
After inspecting it with a loupe i didn't see anything unusual at the front but noticed that the movement is srwed directly into the groove of the case without any clambs.
I don't know if i can get the crystal out without removing the bezel , and i want to press it in completaly , for that reason i need the size of the ring.

I have to remove the movement from my Fiddy.
In this watch the movement has to come out via the front.
A friend of mine is doing this but he doesn't have a big enough ring for the lunnete of the Fiddy.
Does any one know what size i have to use and where i can buy them.

I bought a vintage PAM with a movement which was completally rusted and dried out.
I was wondering if i could put a Molnija 3603 or 3602 ( if you don't need the small second hand ) in my vintage case.
And are the hands ( made for a Unitas kind of movement ) interchangealbel with the Molnija movement.

Just received a vintage PAM with a shitty Chinese movement which died during transport.
If you inspect the movement with a loupe you can find several gold colored metal particals on the movement , so that might be the problem.
I will have to find out if i can fix it or else i will have to find a real vintage movement ( if any one has one for sale shoot me a PM )
When i bought this watch i got some picture including one from the back.
OK a pitty that it doesn't have any markings but for 85 euro's landed on your doorstep
After inspecting the watch and trying to open it with sticky tape i suddenly pealed of the back.
End this is what was underneath it.
What a great way to fool the customs
Some ore pic's
And finally it has the right crown ( pictures of the seller ) and it look perfect on the one i received.

Just received a vintage PAM with these spring ( screw ) bars.
Here is a pictures of them:
And here is a drawing with the dimensions:
Does anybody know where to buy them.

My God what a discussion.
Again , entry level, value for money , and a nice daily beater.
If i wanted a perfect loooking DRSD ( with the right markers , by the way , the markers on my DRSD don't even have lume ) i had to pay at least 4 times more to get a decent one ( like a MBW ).
Cats
Straight answer value for money , of course a few things can be better like the riveted strap but then agian what can you expect for +/- 90 euro's
I wear it on a Nato.

Slai,
i never tried it but do you mean that the Davidsen screws have the same dimension as the other reps ?
I always thought that they were way different but i will give it a try
Cats
Looks great Slai.
One thing though. Does this one have the "davidsen lug screw" problem like mine has meaning you can't get the screw totally in the lug.
