  1. Hi there, please if anybody could help identifying the problem and possibly guiding me to fix it I would be very gratefull.

    Here's the problem:

    I just received a brand new PAM 177H asian unitas which is really nice, saphire front with AR and back, H series caseback nice CG and tight lever, nice crown the works. And a new CN movement that doesnt have the annoying metal sticker on the plates...nice lettering of Officine Panerai also. (WIll post pics later when this issue is resolved)

    The issue is:

    When I started winding the watch it was facing me (to see the second hand run) after a few turns.. no go ....a few more ..no go still.....winded it at max still no go.....I turn the watch around and see the oscilator running and the spring a bit like that ....see pictures.

    Pictures are with a fully wound watch, and you can also see that the oscilator ticks when facing down.

    The watch runs when it faces down and stops when it is 90 degrees or face up.

    It seems to me that the spring is somehow crooked and when the watch is facing up it touches on the oscilator or something like that. Please also note the picture of the seconds hand showing it at a steep angle with the dial. But I dont think this is what cause the problem.

    Heeeeeelp!!!!! :bounce::bounce::bounce::wounded1::wounded1::g:

  2. Also, let's not forget that the wire lug retaining screws are still of a poor quality, with threading into the back of hte case which crosses readily. THis thing is far from being close to perfect, as the dealers would like you to believe.

    I'm curious, do you have experience with this specific latest versionv and the lug retaining screws ?

    Do you actually own this version of 183 that trusty is now selling?

  3. no longer STRAPLESS :bleh::bleh:

    Very very nice!!!!

    Strap maker, model, price?

    What is your take on pairing the 177H with a Ti/SS metal band?

    I'm waiting for a PAM177H from Andrew and was wondering how the combination would work. Anybody that has tried it could post a picture? I've seen the PAM192 with this band and it rocks!! But the 192 has a SS bezel which pairs good with the SS links in the Ti/SS band where the 177 has Ti case & Ti bezel....

    Any other opinions on this thought?

    Congrats on your 177H, wear it well!! ;)

  4. Sorry to hear about your troubles with the postal service.

    Reading your post I had an idea, maybe if you still have the tracking number of your parcel we could help find out what happened, like which employee had access to it , which one delivered it and so on...

    A friend of mine works for TNT in Brussels and maybe she could run it through their systems...

    I any case, I'm sending bad vibes to the thief and good karma vibes to you...if that brings any help.

    Regards

  5. Glad to have found my way here too..

    Most of you must know me from RWG and TRC with the same nick.

    Not much active lately but really no time and resources to play that game at the moment...

    Hope to be able to contribute here as well more in the near future..

    Regards
