K man! Long time no see - you were probably somewhere hunting for the best leather hides! I love your new selection of hides // straps...I really like the nr.2!

you did the "abusing" job very well...now it looks like it should..pity about the size

S! That LE is simply amazing...the top of the top, in every single detail...definitely one of my grails and I am sure that one day I'll have one just like that! congrats to the erfurt combo!

Let's continue with some more 029 love!

lookin'good on the PVD...

donerix did it by himself...he is a new strapmaker (judging from the work seen on the pics - he's a great one!!!)...look his other threads and you'll find a link to his blog

looks really good - however the T-Rex name was used by Simona Straps for her special line of croco straps...

I have only one ti PAM...but that's a keeper! modded PAM082 from DSN :

OMG...that's amazing!

great to see the project got finally completed! I love it!!! I am sure this one will get all the wrist time (I know that mine does!) once again compliments for this one...3 years is a long period but seeing the end result it's clear why it was worth every single day of waiting!

If so, did The Zigmeister do the lume job with REAL tritium on your 027 or the story is another one? let us know, please!

contact precious time : http://precioustime-uk.com/ I am almost sure he can source the watch you want... PT subforum can be found here : http://www.rwg.cc/members/Precious-Time-f91.html

I believe those are sold out fro quiet some time and you can find metta's only on the 2nd hand market... @all - thanks for the great ideas!

@dluddy...nice variety of straps in your collection... I forgot the CH I from GS...that's a nice one, however lately the RED12 orange tan is a little bit nicer plus the CH is not available at the moment and the used one runs more than RED12's new strap... I like as well the other Greg strap you posted a pic (Greg Olivio)...I suppose it's from his new line?

I'll add some pics to give you an idea what are my fav's for now : This is a pic taken from a RG memeber - Silverspeed - it's a Frogman PRE-V strap....to give you a better idea how it goes with a PVD case :

Soon I should receive my PAM028 which I managed to pick up this week... I have some ideas for the strap and I have looked around the forum through numerous posts...I am still undecided between a couple of choices, light tan, vintage tan, PAV style from SD, gunny serie 74, olive green...others... what is your favorite choice? post some pics, let's see them! Frogman PRE-V seems a nice choice as well...

you've got a nice collection...nice selection of straps as well - they give a completely different look to the watch... guys, doesn't he look like Che Guevara? Che was wearing the Rolex back in those days... I hope you don't get insulted by this...

R! Pity you haven't done more comparison pictures between the two cases...to see the differences case/CG/crysal w cyclops.... congrats on your nice franken - definitely the best one out there! I picked up my 028 (it's on the way to me) this week and I am really excited getting it - definitely one of the grails I was chasing for quiet some time!

I love reading your tutorials Fra! they are very well documented with pics and explanations...thank you so much! you are a true asset of the rep world community!

200USD for what?! regular ETA6497 swiss can go up to 100USD...can be priced more if the finishing is better (example for Soprod reworked ones...) Asian7750 - new ones are in the 125USD region just as The Zigmeister says...and this is the price for the high beat ones (there was a member/dealer on RG selling them - ajoesmith) e-bay has listed A7750 as well...you can check the prices over there, but often they are a couple of bucks higher than the ones sold on the rep forums...

the repworld is much more worth than 1 GEN...

I am almost 100% sure that not all the watches posted by Tanfo are his own! but there are a lot of members who don't post a lot who have big collections...I personally know a member with 0 posts who has around 100 pieces

No...it's with the cal.190...wrong size for a Vintage Panerai project

I sent you an e-mail with a nice PDF document concerning the ETA2893 -1;-2;-3 movement(s)... judging from your last piece it could easilly be that the gear is from the keyless works...

send me a PM with your e-mail address- I have a document that could be really useful for you
