Guest al12 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Hi guys, I have a question regarding PAM 196 caseback. Not sure why the same year (G) has a different caseback. This one from Watches 24/7 only have a 'Daylight' on it plus the date pusher is not hex http://www.watches24seven.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.ShowItem&g2_itemId=2742&g2_GALLERYSID=daae0934948e7c9504d2bec17a57129e And this one from the sales post on the Paneristi has a 'Luminor' and 'Daylight' on the caseback plus the date pusher is hex. http://www.network54.com/Forum/353390/message/1291347426/FS-+PAM+196+G+Series+Daylight+-+Box+Papers+%244800+%28RolexGilt%29 So I am wondering why is it?

PeteM Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Good pick out, never noticed that before.... cant say I am certain on the Date pusher but having looked at some 188Gs you seem to be right also the 162s seem to have a different pusher.... The 188G doesnt have the Luminor but changes on the H to Luminor Daylight... I guess because G, as you know, was a pretty transitional period with OP that the first release had a different design and then changed during the series which was then followed through to G, H, I At first I thought it might be a throw back to the original DL design but of course thats officially pre-DL so that CB wouldnt mention DL... unless of course some of the later ones did.. I think the one with the circular and those of the 188 were old 162 cases What do you think? And those had a few CBs made sans Luminor for initial release?

Guest al12 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I have an old Honpo case and caseback so was doing a proper research. I found the answer on Paneristi. An early numbered G series only had "Daylight" on it. And the old Honpo cb are right on the money as well as the date pusher is not a hex one.

dluddy Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 starting in the late releases of the G series forward, LUMINOR appeared on the CB's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 So are the 162 cases and the early 196's in different cases than the later versions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted March 30, 2011 Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 So are the 162 cases and the early 196's in different cases than the later versions? From the pics I looked at yesterday.. yes mate... I saw 196 Gs and 188Gs with same case as a few 162Fs and to all intent and purpose the same CB sans the DL... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
