Tourby Many of us prefer the .8mm dish depth because they will fit not only the few V Cg's left but the Seadbo cg's, the new Toro Bravo CG's, the wholesaleoutlet CG's and most importantly for those of us with the means, Genuine CG's. I would hope you will be able to make these with the correct OEM dpeth as the originals or at least have them as an option. I for one would never put a crappy cartel CG over one of these beautiful crowns

Holy crap Tourby!! Amazing. Refinish per your T-48's and you will have extremely genish crowns!

Thanks Chris!

The Closest Pam 249 dial See page 10 for the Final Piece
tanya replied to Rolexfinder's topic in The Panerai Area
Wooooooooooooooow Now I want a Cali Dial -
You might want to try the strap section here in the trade section. Many good deals from many good members.In most instances preowned straps will be properly broken in and have a bit of character if they have been well cared for

Has anyone swapped out the movements in a PAM GMT?
tanya replied to panerai153's topic in The Panerai Area
Yes as Kylan said the hands will have to be broched (sorry if that is misspelled) Rex and Zig have both done these on a number of occasions and that they both likely have that same hand broching tool set that costs quite a bit of money -
Wow Rollie just stunning!
-
LOL Marco mein freund You are late to the game. That beauty has moved on to a very appreciative fellow and I replaced it with the gen 219 J

Hold off on that new 322 !, A few days later and the movement is pooched!

LOL I know you do, I'm teezing you. It's already packed up and ready to go to Fedex. Brobert posted some nice movement shots somewhere. -

Possibly Who knows what they did or how they were assembled. -
THe new style Hex tubes would be quite an achievement, no?

HOLY Crap Why the hell did I sell those FU and Ultimate cases??? Kylan and Doc, get on a plane and fly to the Rhine to help get this done!! I'll pack Rex in your suitcase

Woke up this moring to find that that beautiful new 322 we all so love of mine is DEAD DEAD DEAD. Won't wind, all gummed up!! Since the spring still was tight from it's last wind, I gave her a shake to see if the balance would spin and for a while it would go then I put the watch down and it died again. Might be a bad movement, might be that the whole run of them are horsesh*t . The Boss will let me know Tues morning when it arrives on his bench Curious to see how many of us got them thus far. Until then save your f8cking money!

killer!

Well I don't know if all his cases are better but this one sure is!! I think it's rather hit or miss as far as all of the case makes go. No more Jimmy Fu = a whole lot of mediocre or at best some decent stuff that needs modding to work. For Simon pre-V builds I, Avitt and others have had excellent luck with the Jackson-Getat cases and they are only $30.00. But they do require filing down the rather long crown tubes. For most of Davidson's better cases with his new better sapphires I understand that a bit of sanding is required on inproved CG's (V-Sead_LH-Toro_Gen) to get the feet to fit the side of the case. however the old problem of better cg's screw holes not lining up right on a davidsen case are gone (at least with this one) For The Ultimate cases which some have turned into manual wind cases the crown tube is far too short and requires the long stem extra gasket trick to get the crown profile right and any proper fit with a better cg. So they all have their flaws. This one is pretty damn nice and for my money one of the more accurate I have ever seen but it did pass through two of Repgeek's best do it your self modder's hands and I am sure they both added their own flourishes just as I did my Gorilla Glue mod to the CG last evening. Kruzer. Much appreciated. I couldn't believe that this one came up and from a trusted friend as well.We actually chat quite a bit back and forth over at Repgeek and sort of have an informal first dibs rule on our stuff should we decide to sell or trade. With your wealth of knowledge and beautiful pieces I would welcome you to the club!! I had actually strongly considered this as a gen purchase until I caved on my 299 which I now am attempted to trade for a 297. I think I may try to aquire a LH Destro movement for the right price, though this classic Swiss is such a beauty.
-
Proud to own a superpiece owned by two of my buds! Forgot R owned it first! Tightened up the lever with my gorilla glue mod and now not only does it snap tight like my gens but there is very little movement when open Love this watch!

one was made in a Temple street apartment One was made in Swizerland

It's a super Build with DSN's newest best case, perfect AR, a modded LH dial with a very fine matte spray, Modded LH Destro CG (snug as a bug and snaps tight exactly like my gens), better hands I think, LH 219 caseback and a swiss movement Very very pleased on a treated Mario Paci!
