elisiX Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 Hi All, Just had some free time this afternoon so thought I might take some pictures of the current stable. Lots of pics so bare with me. Panerai 233K Luminor IWC Big Pilot 5004 Breitling Super Avenger Nixon 51-30 All Black And here's a new wallpaper of the first picture below. 2560x1600 http://i338.photobucket.com/albums/n408/el.../DSC_0017wp.jpg
b16a2 Posted June 30, 2009 Report Posted June 30, 2009 A beautiful collection for such a young gentleman!! Which is your favourite?
elisiX Posted June 30, 2009 Author Report Posted June 30, 2009 Mate I'd have to say the 233 really. I'm totally smitten with the BP though.
hiker01 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 Nice collection!!! How do you set the GMT on the PAM 233? Just curious!
wheaton26 Posted July 1, 2009 Report Posted July 1, 2009 nice collection you have there. have you done any mods to the bp ... datewheel and ar? i used to have the 51-30 as well. the tide function was a plus for me living in the bahamas but i didn't wear it much ... it just looked too big. i must say, the all black version is killer and makes it appear smaller which is nice, because that thing is massive! here is an old shot of mine beside my 091 ...
elisiX Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 The GMT hand is adjusted with the minute hand (IIRC). And the regular hour hand is adjusted by jumping. The BP has Chief AR, HK Tan OEM Spec Gator, DW Mod, regulated movement and Vaclume. It's bloody incredible for the money compared with the Gen.

elisiX Posted July 1, 2009 Author Report Posted July 1, 2009 One day... Although, I must say. I've spent a good couple hours on a few different occasions handling the Gen BP, and its bloody difficult to tell them apart. Obviously the movement is nowhere near as nice/smooth/sexy on the rep, but other than that.. its very accurate. One other item I can tell by is the date font, a little thicker/bold on the Gen. I bought the 233 because it cant be repped. Not anywhere near accurately anyway. The BP was high on my Gen list when I bought the 233 but with this rep, why bother. Am hoping to add the new TG Ceramic, DSSD V3 (?) and a UN of some form over the next few months.
StormTooper4 Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Great Photos of some awesome watches, having seen your BP in the flesh, it really did set the standard for me. It is a truly special piece. ST4
SERGEANT_AT_ARMS Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 elisiX the 233 is incredible as are your wonderfull shots of the collection
Dave123 Posted July 2, 2009 Report Posted July 2, 2009 Awesome Jay!.... Even without the blue background they still look good....
elisiX Posted July 2, 2009 Author Report Posted July 2, 2009 lol Dave. Thanks. Thanks for the comments on the pics guys. I really should play around with a little black cardboard and try reduce the reflections. The domed crystal makes it very difficult to photograph and I only have 2 hands..
dabal Posted July 13, 2009 Report Posted July 13, 2009 wow, gen 233, indeed it cannot be repped, beautiful, beautiful.
