Whatever123 Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Hi! Is anyone out there doing custom see-through casebacks for PAMs? I just bought a highly modded 111h and about the only thing that's nagging me ist the serial on the caseback... why on earth do they all have number "0035/2000"? Are there any H-series casebacks with a different serial on the market? Best thing of course would be if someone does custom jobs... I am sure a lot of members are interested.

Whatever123 Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 hi whatever, can i ask you what you bought? some pics Of course - but unfortunately the beauty is still on the way - I'm afraid it will not reach me before Christmas. But I'll post some pics as soon as I've got it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have seen a couple of guys on RG have done this, one of them is LH but the other guy escapes me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peyups Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Yeah some people do custom serials/engravings... but on the other forum RG. Maybe some people here too.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drulee Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Yeah, besides the LH "I" series, I've only seen the "35" ones. At least the titanium display backs have a few different numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whatever123 Posted December 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 That's stupid... it can't be so difficult to make at least a short selection of serial numbers, can it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
w0lf Posted December 23, 2009 Report Share Posted December 23, 2009 Man, if you flip that thing over ain't no serial # in the world will make that rep movement look better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have a point there... But the serial can be changed easily, the movement not... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unregistered Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Jakobh on RG is doing custom solid casebacks and only for a limited range of casebacks. Mainly Pre-V 201A/202A/203A etc and some Pre-A, A & B series as well. As for custom display casebacks, I know of no one doing custom. The ones that are out there that I know of for Luminor Marina watches; E series : E0053/3500 (DSN) or E208P/4000 (Angus Ultimate) F series : F2052/4000 (Cartel) H series : H0035/2000 (Cartel&DSN) I series : I2165/2500 (LH) LH doesn't sell his caseback alone though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drulee Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 E208P ?!? And it's an Ultimate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unregistered Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 haha, yes Doc, its the ultimate They're hard to come by though, and it a simple switch to get the correct DSN caseback which I did, which shows the correct serial number and more importantly, the correct issued series number, which is 3500 instead of 4000 for the "E" series 111 & 113.

Drulee Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Yeah I know about the DSN backs, ordered one from him last month when I had an extra "E" series movement. You say that the Angus Ultimate is hard to come by, but why would one want to come by one in the first place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unregistered Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Cause everything else on it is damn near perfect His CG is gorgeous for a A-F series CG. The crown is nice and thick with the right amount of bevel. The dial (well there were two versions), the earlier fatter number version was extremely accurate. And the AR is suprisingly light and close to the gen with a mild purple hue of an F series I saw recently. Plus, the movement is one of the better finished ones I've handled. Mainly though, its the crown and CG that make the Angus Ultimate 111E very much sought after, especially if its lumed and with the correct caseback Saw one on RG sell for $500 without even the correct caseback about a month ago...
