lfovco Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I have a PAM 183 Black Seal. Very first model that came out from Eddie Lee. I got it from him back in 2005. After all these years the tube has not much life left in it, I figure another year or so to go, maybe less. It only lasted that long because it is not a watch I wear every day. Plus I was insanely careful about it. I have been searching for information if anyone makes the tube and crown set that's much better quality, that would last for many years but I had no luck finding any info. I would really appreciate any information in that regards. THANKS EVERYONE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burnz Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 i think you're referring to the PAM183 radiomir black seal, not the 187? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 I would rather get one made than try finding one... new tube and stem Or try to source direct from dealers maybe the new 288 crown and tube or buy one and part it out...all comes down to dosh mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lfovco Posted March 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Yes, I meant PAM 183. It seems like it may be too much hassle and potentially expensive. I guess I'll keep it until it completely wears off and maybe reuse the movement for something else. Thanks for the info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted March 25, 2011 Report Share Posted March 25, 2011 Post edited. Try DSN as he should have a tube/crown for the 183 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbh Posted March 26, 2011 Report Share Posted March 26, 2011 Cousins UK has the correct tube. Listed as "tube k". It's a much better quality than the original and a direct swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lfovco Posted March 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2011 Kbh, that's very cool, thanks for the info. Is it pretty easy to change it? Looks like it's not a huge deal in the pictures. I assume that the current crown will work with that tube. Thanks.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
