What easy flaw fix

Hi Bong

Hi Richard,

It looks really amazing. Wear it well.

One question. It seems that the bezel screws stick out a little bit. Especially at the 5 and 8 marker. The one at 10 seems to be like it should be.

Is this something you will also see in real life or is it just the picture?

While everyone is excited about the new version of this I still enjoy my old beast!

I agree, it

I think the biggest flaw off all is the white date window on the black and the Safari one.

That leaves only the white/grey one for me to order.

I made a side by side comparison and I think it

Close but the one Homer used to sell were the ones with the OFFICINE PANERAI plate inside and with the keyhole at the front.

This one is still really nice looking.

Well this one has the keyhole and a Panerai plate on the outside. It's only for 6

Now hoping that they have the swiss made at 6 and a cyclops on the dial.

Actually, this weekend I saw some new models at an AD. They didn

I was in the same sort of situation two years ago.

My PAM 187 was stopped by Dutch customs and I received a package without a watch.

The sender marked the package as repaired chronometer or something.

There was a letter attached that It was illigal to import replica watches etc, etc...

Thinking of what to do and also calling this for help on this board, I got another letter te next day from customs.

This was a whole diffrent type of letter. They stated that the watch was exemined by an expert and that it was a real panarai watch.

But through the simple way of packaging it was asumed to be fake.

They gave me a few options, proof that the watch was bought in the netherlands, or pay the tax.

I considered making a false bill or receipt but didnt do it.

I got a lot of advice not to do so.

The best advice I got was "not to get my arm amputated over a splinter".

ordering a fake watch is one thing, making false bills is (tax)fraud and a whole diffrent ballgame!!

My advice forget the watch and bite the bullit.

or in dutch "Vergeet het horloge en bijt door de zure appel heen!"

I do agree with Truzement. I know it hurts but you don't want to get into big trouble for $500,-. Also I think that customs are getting trained in how to spot a fake and that they probably also read these forums.

Wow.....

Thanks for sharing your story mate. Can I just ask them to send it back? Are they allowed to refuse sending it back?

I really don

Hi outlandos,

Sorry to hear about your bad luck.

In Januari I send a watch to TWP for modding (how stupid was I??? ) with registered post to the USA.

On the shipping receipt I wrote defective watch movement.

In Februari I bought a genuine FM in the USA (cheap $) and had it send over to The Netherlands. Before he send it to me, I e-mailed the dealer a letter, with a description of the

Just saw this C1 at Josh site. looks very interesting to me.

Can

I think it looks great. much better than the standard black one.

hmmm, seems I have to send my 183 to Jakub for a double AR as soon as I got it back from TWP.............

That rubber strap looks great. Good Idea!

I

Just Awesome !!!! Do the dials say swiss made at 6??? Angus seems to have these very same MBW's but without the swiss made at 6

I really like those Hornback straps. Did they originally come with it?

Unfortunately no swiss made at 6 but they are absolutely beautiful.

Wear them well!

Yes, gen does have AR. You may be referring to the GST, which does not have AR from factory

now here's the thing - once you've seen how the double AR brings out the dial beauty, you'd want to do it to all you watches

Hmmmm

That is why I suggested you wait. I believe this is the state of the art - MBK with black dial and SS bracelet:

http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=64714

A number of folks sell it. This one is offered by Angus here on RWG.

Yep that one comes close, except it's missing the "swiss made" at 6

This is the one I'm looking for: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=58101&hl=

Raymond got it from Paso but he can't get it anymore

It looks really good but as far as I know, the gen doesn

I there anybody who already ordered the new Corum Admirals Cub?

http://www.pc-80108.com/00co10027-admirals...800-p-4235.html

I saw the gen and it is such a beauty! Also the size is perfect with 44mm. Would fit me much better than the 48mm one.

The only flaws I could spot from the pics are the missing engraving on the deployment and of course the date is too deep.

Wanted to share with you my two latest home made straps. I have made three in total now and the quality improves every time.

Really enjoying my new hobby!!

Here they are>>>>>

Feedback appreciated.

Man, those straps look great!

Did you kill your cat for it?

The one you are describing which is currently available is the standard MBK available from a number of dealers. The AP Boutique Scuba version has just come out but it is from the wrong factory with cyclops on the crystal. I would wait and see which of the seconds at 6 or scuba non-chrono version comes out first.

Just remember that on the seconds at 6 they will never get the alignment of the pushers/crown or the placement and sizing of the sub-dials correct as the rep uses a 7750 based movement and the gen uses a chrono module placed on top of the base movement. I am waiting for an MBK quality Scuba. That is the one you could wear on your wrist with no worries.

The AP Scuba which has just come out also has a wrong crown. It seems like a $ 100,- model to me.

A MBK version of the Scuba would be a safe choice but for some reason, I like the looks of the better.

Do you know other dealers than King who are selling them. All the ones I found at our dealers, having problems with either the cyclops, 60 subdial, or the missing
