hey guys.. i hope u can help me with something here.. as most of u know im still on a hunt for a pam!!! after looking at more pams.. i think i've decided that my next pam will be a pvd'd panerai pam!! i've narrowed down my choices to the following: pam 195 pam 026 pam 202a and pam 218a my favourite is the pam 218a.. since i know that theres only 5 prototype in the world of the 218a and i would never be able to pull it off.. i just like the idea of owning a close copy of it.. .. so my question is how accurate is the 218a (davidsen's) and what are the flaws on this watch and are the flaws fixable? and other than this.. of the pvd'd pams i listed which is the most accurate to the gen? and is there other more accurate pvd pams than the ones i listed? please help guys.. i really need your input.. as im really a noob in panerai models

well done mate on the dials.. now if you could only make one for the fiddy

so you're saying i should do a base 111 case and mod it? isn't the dsn 195 good enough?

hey im new to panerai so sorry if my question is abit newbie.. but i'm really interested in the pam195.. however i dunno how good the rep is compared to the gen.. and if there are different reps available (e.g. dsn, cartels, etc.).. can someone pls tell me which version of the 195 is the most accurate to the gen and what are the flaws in these watch? thanks alot guys

hey guys i have a genuine swiss 7750 cimier watch.. however i want to swap the swiss 7750 into my rep iwc 3717 and put the asian 7750 in my iwc 3717 into the cimier.. is this possible? i know converting asian 7750 28800 to swiss 7750 is possible.. but is the reverse possible? thanks

5 rounds? i was thinking more of fighting anderson silva for 12 rounds... in MMA rules

eod is still my fav!!

if the quality is up to par with the gen then hey.. 500$ sounds fair.. i mean the dial of the gen is in a class of it's own.. so ye cant wait for ur review mate..

oh what? how did u get to there???? u wizard u dave u .. back to base.. i owe u gb 1000 enough? except i need black not blue .. how the hell do u get to that page anyway? i tried the search button even for 'breitling rubber straps' and it comes up with leather straps allover

sorry yeah i forgot about that.. as soon as i posted i wanted to re edit the post but were not able to.. i apologize

nope cant find gen rubber there.. they do have leather tho..

any differences in quality so far between the reps and gens? or any differences at all that you can tell?

hmmmmmmm i would love the black.. but i can't seem to get hold of the gen black rubber.. and with my experience using bce as a daily beater i've given up on using polished steel.. so i want to use rubber.. however in the old days i used to be able to get gen rubber from an ad as my friend works there.. however recently she moved work so now i can't get hold of gen rubbers.. can someone help me get a hold of a black gen rubber strap for breitling? thanks

silix has a v1 for 200 bux.. so yeah it's the v1 not v2.. i think they made it out of the blue gen.. i have a comparison pics thanks to dave123 rep gen

oops sorry i did mean grey .. ill try silix if jay can get it in stock.. the thing with jay is usually he takes weeks and weeks before actually shipping the watch

i think im going to buy the new skyland avenger but not sure what colour i should go for... i was thinking either a blue or a white.. which colour out of the 3 is the closest to its gen counterpart? any help would be appreciated.. i know in the old steelfish the blue was very different to the gen.. how about the skyland is it the same?

first case i've ever heard on the ap roo.. so im guessing this is only a one off issue.. if i remembered the daytona case and chs gmt II c correctly.. problems surfaced straight away after the watches have been released.. but yeah i doubt this is a secs @ 12 issue.. rather it's a qc issue

nice.. now we really need MBW to release a ap eod in this movement

yes it is wrong.. i think it's a movment problem tho.. you can't move the window to the left.. but maybe im wrong because the mbw version is right in this regard

i think the date window is a bit to the right compare to

yeh eod to come out indeed..

i dont think there is any submariner out there that is perfect.. if there is maybe u can tell us about it

kind of dissapointed with the black and safari dial as the date window is kind of wrong

so it is $658? wow thats expensive! either way here's some pics
