I ordered the new rosé gold rubberclad but angus's staff sent me qc for the don Ramon by mistake was actually tempted to go with it instead but I am already afraid of scratching the plating especially the bezel
Looks pretty though
Mob fact f$cked up the crown guards body's on the only run thus far in that the lever holes are noticeably bigger than the diameter of the pin
Shame but makes it dogsh$t until V2
I must disagree on the clasp have owned a couple rep bracelets that I could not tell the diff in weight with my gens
However I can always feel the weight diff in the puny eta movement and ring combo versus the 3135
You are buying this for the movement which looks perfect (hope it works perfectly)
It will certainly have better weight than typical eta Rolex reps which have always felt noticeably lighter than my gens.
The Rolex movement is a heavy movement significantly heavier than the much smaller lighter eta and ring combo
The reason no rep Rolex has ever had any staying power with me (besides the fact that I own four gens) is hat they have always felt light as a feather compared to my gens. This one should be about right I imagine
You can also add an oem or aftermarket date wheel and if you resourcefully enough a gen dial
Considering that gen 3135sl are going for roughly 1700 on the low end if this is as good as
It looks then it could be worth every penny
Can't really comment on how good the dial is because as someone who owned the gen the gen dial color never photographed the same twice. Always a diff shade of silver depending on the light
Don't know if this is superlumed or not since it is not advertised as being so I imagine it is not
I may pick this up at some point and try to nab a gen dial if early reports merit the movement
H factory watches all have awful crown guards
If you can get yourself a noob cg to install on the H factory watches then they are terrific but I could spot an H fact lever from across the ocean
They suck
Right now the three most accurate out of box Pam reps are. (With no mods)
Noob 29m v2
Noob 299
Noob 243 v blah blah
111 is extraordinary. I know I have one of three our little group had modded by The Zigmeister but it requires the cp mod, inca mod and lever pin recess mod to be in the class of the three above
Not a fan of radiomirs so I can't speak for them
Good eye mien freund
Cp needs to be flattened a bit pointy out of the box. He also mirror polished it
Lever pin repolished and recessed
Full tear down service and regulation
Inca mod
Not sure on the regulator pin or swan neck but he may have done so
If we could drop in an eta gear train I could drop this thing off at my Pam AD for inspection
Scary close after a few simple tweaks. Case set dial and hands are 99.99999%
Why not just sell your H factory watch and buy the Noob version? The noob 111 V 3 case set crown and Crownguard are scary close to the gen not just in appearance but in actual construction
You can't unless you buy the newest noob v3 111 watch and pop your 390 movement dial and hands in it and slap on your case back
Or you might get lucky in the parts forum
I have them (mostly since one is a Franken genstein)
Franken fiddy , gen 296 and gen 087G if we are talking more contemporary Pams I guess G series is contemporary
My genstein 003A can be the old timer bridesmade
