Need a rep friendly rec. Thanks

Quick update the seller was not helpful at all. Basically since he had my money and it was past the paypal dispute period he knew he didn't have to do anything and he didn't.

Any have a watchmaker recommendation until The Zigmeister gets back?

I purchased a modded PAM 111H SWISS SWAN NECK in June from a member with fairly extensive history. The watch right off the bat was fast I attributed

this to a break in period. Recently it been gaining several minutes a day.

When I contacted him he attributed this to a regulation issue. When I contacted him again he told me he bought this watch from another member and that's how he got it.

I think he is passing the buck.

Shouldn't he be responsible for any repairs to the watch. He also not be responsive to the mails I sent. What should I do?

This was his ad for the watch

This is a modded PAM 111H SWISS SWAN NECK that I picked up from another

member.

1. Started off as Eddie Lee's best PAM 111H: Great case

2. Cannon pin fixed

3. Lume job done

4. Modded dial to avoid the L SWISS MADE L squished up against the "6"

5. Fully serviced by a watchsmith; new crown stem installed and has a

nice winding feel to it.

Can anyone post the links to the Omega and Panerai catalogs.+?

Anyone have an extra they don't need?

I need one too. Anyone who wants to sell theirs PM me.

I purchased a Lello crown with another member with a fairly extensive post count 200+. I received an thin paper envelope with a hole in it and no crown. He claims it was in a small plastic bag. Either way I received a envelope and no crown. I asked for a refund as I believe it was improperly packaged. As a metal crown in a letter envelope is asking for trouble. I am right or wrong? The seller did not mention any insurance when I purchased from him. I would expect him to make it right since: 1) we are not talking about alot here 2) improper packaging; should have been in a bubble package.

He has so far refused to refund me as he said he has no crowns and is not a dealer. I don't see how either affects a refund. As even being a private seller you should package your items properly.

How do we preorder? PAM doesn't respond to emails/PMs.

Damn missed out. If anyone ordered extra and doesn't need them pls email me.

Thanks

I held off on the purchase of these because there were too many variations in the photos shown... That, witha lack of communication told my little guy inside to hold off on these...

With that, is anyone interested in 3 Lello crowns I have here waiting for a home?

Any of those will fit a PAM63 ETA2893? If anyone else has a Lello crown pls let me know.

Thanks

Anyone have a source for crowns. Seems like the PAM crowns were not that much of an improvement. And Lello is not answering mails.

Looks like neither PAM nor Lello are too keen on answering emails/PMs.

Does Lello still sell crowns. Might be an option as seems people are having tough time contacting PAM.

Who is selling the Crowns and cyclops? Thanks

Just got one from EL and was wondering what I should have done.

Sent a bunch of emails/pms no response.

I thought that Aspire Paul is not the same as Crazy Paul?

Do you have to have a certain hit count before posting?

Without opening them to look at the movements?

Are WM (watchmakers) MBW same as the MBW?

Just that I had some bad dealings the past year with members who had high post counts who were long time members.

Welcome!

I just noticed a few long time posters who suddenly had issues buying/selling. Not saying this is indicative of rep forumers in general. But haven't really seen this in the gen forums.

Looks real to me. Try posting on the Rolex forum on Timezone.

Did you also try checking the serial matches the era it was produced in?
