PAMman Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 I haven't ever posted any pics of my watches on the forum because I am not a great photographer and I hadn't ever mastered the whole photohosting thing. However, I am going to give this a try. My preA1 franken has a genuine preA1 dial, genuine tritium hands, genuine crown, genuine crownguard, CdG striped Swiss ETA 6497-1, Jimmy Fu caseset, non-AR sapphire crystal and a B series caseback (a few B series watches had preA dials so this isn't totally incorrect - if DSN's casebacks were of better quality I would use one of his instead).
Mickey Padge Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Sweet shots, and a great watch too! Thanks for sharing, you should do so more often for sure! I really want to take a microfibre cloth to that watch now though
OmegaPOFL Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 wow man.... that's one sweet looking watch.
ravishingrick Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Great piece, congrats with it! You have something very special there!
milesd Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Wow, simply amazing! How in the world did you source that Gen dial?!??
dluddy Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 Pretty hard to go wrong with that formula Nice job
Watchmeister Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 T- Fabulous franken. I always love it when you trot out your early PAM's - franken or gen.
lanikai Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 to one of the leading experts of Pams.. thanks for the pics of your work.. amazing.. AC lani
fishgodeep Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 The greatest franken 001 in the world !?! Cheers T - good to see that one at long last FGD
ubiquitous Posted September 28, 2009 Report Posted September 28, 2009 That dial really sets this one into a class all it's own. Quite a remarkable piece...
siesta181 Posted September 29, 2009 Report Posted September 29, 2009 Beautiful... and this puts me in a quandry. I have the old accurate EL 001 B series caseback which I was about to use for a contemporary 001 project but I love the look of the old PAms esp with the tritium look. What should I do????

That's easy Find a JF case, gen or T48 crown, JF cg (ultimate angus/homer is pretty good too in a pinch) transplant a ofrei 6497-1 ticker in that bad boy and top it off with a FGD marina dial. That's what I'm doing anyway.
PAMman Posted September 29, 2009 Author Report Posted September 29, 2009 Thanks for the kind comments guys. Now I'm going to have to brush up my photography skills (and polish my watches).
