Guest Daytona1984 Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 Hey guys, I'm still looking for new hands to finish my PAM88 project. Do you have any recommendations? I appreciate any input here Btw: If someone have gen hands and want to sell, that is fine with me too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 a combination of DSN and standard rep: Hour hand: Standard rep Minute: DSN GMT: DSN seconds: Standard rep after a relume they are very nice. My former 088 was equipped with this hands combo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hooky Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 @ chefcook: what was the reason to go this way: Minute: DSN GMT: DSN The shape is better I guess, but was wondering which part of the hands is better... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mike Posted June 28, 2010 Report Share Posted June 28, 2010 I assume this would go for a 089 as well??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The minute hand is not wide enough on the standard rep whereas DSNs hand is wider and has the correct amount of lume. DSNs hour hand is too long, the ultimate rep hand has not enough lume, but the standard rep hand is just perfect. The standard rep GMT hand has a very large tip, the ultimate GMT hand is a little short, but DSNs hand is perfect. On the secon hand the standard rep or ultimate rep simply has better quality than DSNs hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drulee Posted July 1, 2010 Report Share Posted July 1, 2010 I think the Ultimate hour hand is the one you want, not the standard rep hour hand. And, yes, this would apply to all GMT PAMs. The gen hand sets also have a larger base (area around collar that pushes onto the post).

chefcook Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I have an ultimate hour hand in spare but believe me: It is not as good as the standard hour hand. It's lumed area is too small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
