StormTooper4 Posted June 2, 2012 Report Posted June 2, 2012 I dont know why it isn't because its one the nicest titaniums around
Mapman57 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Posted June 6, 2012 Met quite a few members who have let the latest 240J go (C&R) as they have been less than impressed - but maybe they were unlucky? Its certainly a great looking Gen model.
louky Posted June 7, 2012 Report Posted June 7, 2012 Its a very well made model !If you referring to the H factory version recently out its also very well made.
bumroxas Posted July 3, 2012 Report Posted July 3, 2012 It's beautiful...gotta fix that canon pinion tho..or swap with a noob movement. the best is to go with h 240 and a compatible noob auto and youll get a killer watch. heres mine with modded cg's 1
w0lf Posted July 3, 2012 Report Posted July 3, 2012 I'd be all over it if it didn't have QR strap change and roller CG.
bumroxas Posted July 3, 2012 Report Posted July 3, 2012 (edited) Hey wolf. So for this 240 it should be without a roller cg?... Interesting. Whats the right cg for this? Looked at some pics of gens and it seems to be the same. Its the same h fact cg they use on the 177 and 176. Loved this watch but the 177 got more wrist time. Edited July 3, 2012 by bumroxas

No, the J series is correct to have a hex crown tube, QR lugs and a roller CG. What I'm saying is - for me, having a Ti model with a traditional case, tube and CG would open a lot of possibilities for using its parts for a multitude of other builds. In itself I think that PAM240 is boring even on a matching bracelet. I would rather have a PAM36, 55, 56, 61, even a 118 before I'd consider a 240.
bumroxas Posted July 4, 2012 Report Posted July 4, 2012 Got ya...a 36 would be really cool... Seangoh, I filed off the inner corners with a jewelers file. But just enough for a sharp corner. To get the inner top edges sharp, i took out from the top so i wouldnt cut too much and open up the cg rectangle hole too much. You see the edges from the factory are a bit chamfered. Pop up the lever pin by just a notch and file away following the exact contour of the cg. When done finish it off with a scotch brite pad then push the pin in. It should seat a bit recessed now. You gotta remove some ti off the inner lever too. It sticks out at the corner from the inside.
