Drulee Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 The two dealers Josh and Andrew (PerfectClones and TrustyTime) are often referred to as the "cartel". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stallonepanerai Posted November 4, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Thanks. i was able to find PerfectClones but not trustytime. I am looking for a titanium and pvd case and parts. How do i get in touch with these guys? do they have a website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drulee Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 First off, they don't sell parts. Secondly, unless you are talking about manual wind titanium models, they don't carry them. And the third thing to avoid is their PVD/DLC models, if they even have them anymore - way too shiny a finish. Which leaves you with Davidsen for all PAM parts, any automatic PAM titanium models (nice manual ones too), and the only really matt PVD finished cases - some would say TOO matt You could send a case to the member Avitt for PVD coating though. Avitt, a member here, can be contacted by PM Davidsen has a section in the dealers area (it's hidden in the second section), and should only be contacted using the email addresses he provides.

mastergod Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 (edited) If you want a cheaper alternative, here is a titanium case from Jackson (trustworthy seller of cheap homage watches and parts) http://www.jacksontse.com/mm052.html Its for 6497 movement. He only has the caseback shown but I believe the case accepts other casebacks. MG Edited November 4, 2009 by mastergod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG Yes they accept most factory and DSN case backs, but may have problems aligning the stem when some dials are used - no idea which ones.
