rafi717 Posted June 30, 2012 Report Posted June 30, 2012 Hey guys, wanted to check if anybody's else shares what I see. It looks like there are scratches between 10-12 and that the dial is misaligned. Does anybody else see this?
rolojack Posted June 30, 2012 Report Posted June 30, 2012 For the misalignent I don't see any, and for the the scratch I think it's just a greasy fingerprint on the crystal. Plus, since there is no previous scary tales of lousy H 380s I'd personally go for it.
rolojack Posted June 30, 2012 Report Posted June 30, 2012 Oh, you were talking of the scratch on the bezel? I focused on the dial... Yes, I agree there is one. But well, on a mirror polised surface mabye could you be indulgent...
rafi717 Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Posted June 30, 2012 Thanks for the reply. I asked them for more pictures and indeed it was fingerprints. All is good. I will post pictures once it arrives.
khnaxu Posted June 30, 2012 Report Posted June 30, 2012 You might aswell order a set of screws/lugs while your'e at it cause they WILL fall off, just a reminder
rafi717 Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Posted June 30, 2012 Hmm... Wasnt aware. This is my first PAM. Where can I get replacement screws? Or do I have to get lugs as well?

rafi717 Posted June 30, 2012 Author Report Posted June 30, 2012 Sweet. Just ordered along with a NATO strap. Thanks buddy!
rafi717 Posted July 1, 2012 Author Report Posted July 1, 2012 I saw a post in which you said that "the screws on the crown" of your 380 fell out. Which screws were you referring to? The lugs?
rafi717 Posted July 13, 2012 Author Report Posted July 13, 2012 As far as the misalignment, its the entire dial in regards to the case/crown. In order to really see the reason for this I will have to open the case. In the second picture above it almost looks like the "PANERAI" is slightly tilted with regards to the "RADIOMIR" or the whole dial tilted counter clock wise. Either way, physically having the watch confirmed my initial feeling of asymmetry of the QC pictures. I would appreciate if any PAM experts could chip in.
