Fiddy with Orloff JV

[w0lf]

Wow, sweet! can never get enough of that 127. The strap is nice too, though I personally prefer smaller scales

[PeteM]

W, in answer to your question M does both but if you asked for croc nubuck then thats what you would get mate... I have had a few pics sent from M showing the Croc Nubuck hides when he gets them.... that way I can choose my pattern

[JoJo35]

Looks great W, wear it well

[tanya]

Warren not to cop out but I would say it is on Par with most Paci's and Dirk's. Medium. Not chuncky like an Ammo, not think like OEM. Prob on Par wi most Orloff's as well

Just picked up a set of OEM Hands as well!!!

[Watchmeister]

T - Congrats on the hands.Thank god I did mine before it became popular (and when Panerai watch smiths would cooperate ) .

[tanya]

LOL

I know

All I need now is a full OEM CG and I am set

I have a shadow caseback

[Watchmeister]

Very impressive. Now all you need is the case set.

[tanya]

HA HA

Yeah and box and papers

This is the best EL midcase though. They (the pseudo pamxperts) say it could pass the Pam service center mustard

[Watchmeister]

I actually did a comparison of the mid cases EL vs gen at some point on the forum. they arr ridiculously close. the bezel is what makes the difference.

[tanya]

yeah I have a gen crystal but I missed the bezel from my same source

I was told that I have the best EL version bezel for what it's worth. I know there were a few versions.

We need to start a Franken 127-217 sub Forum.

It's really a much more satisfying hobby when yoy finally break through the barriers and find "THE" guys with Pam service center connections. And more expensive

[Watchmeister]

It has been a lot more difficult ever since they moved the service center to Texas and stopped returning old parts.
