dadog13 Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 that "thing" is huge! I love it...definitely will get one...but only at the begining of the 2007...my wallet is empty now... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YellowHat Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Truly an awesome sight. Glad they Lumed the dial and hands the same. Wear that one outside your flight suit, pop down your polarized visor, pull some G's, and feel the manliness!!! Don't fall in the water, though, that thing will drag you under! Based upon measurements from the photos, comparing the known case width (46mm) to the lugh width, I calculate a lug width of 24mm. Going to need another black NATO strap from TimeFactors!

kanerich Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 Big watches are just a fad? Damn, FORGET IT THEN!! There is no way in HELL I'm paying $228 for anything that I won't own and use for my entire lifetime! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eunomians Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 I sincerely think that the lugwidth is more than 24mm. I have come to this conclusion only because I was wearing my PAM 001 whilst looking at a genuine BR01 at Barney's. Nope, I did not bother asking the ingrates that worked the watch counter. I could be wrong; and I would like to know the answer. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morgan Posted November 29, 2006 Report Share Posted November 29, 2006 I think it is our duty to push these dealers that are less than forthcoming to add "Copy" or "Asian" to their descriptions. I'm a noob and I totally expected my B&R to be an ETA (swiss) since they are using "Asian" to describe the other movements. I understood that if the term ETA is used then it's Swiss! If you can't trust people selling fake watches, who can you trust? Hmmm... that didn't sound right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cypher Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Where can I get straps for this one? What would you recommend for the black face SS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can't trust people selling fake watches, who can you trust? Hmmm... that didn't sound right. I agree. I had my naivete stripped here one day when someone posted pictures of the Seagul versions of the 2892-A2 when I was touting the absolute bargain of getting an ETA 2892 Aqua Terra for a song.

bing-o Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 My guess is the 2892 is the copy movement. The perfect Clones website also states that it's an automatic 21J movement as well??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm not exposing the gaps in my knowlege base here but I think the ETA 2892-A2 is a 21 jewel as well so there is no clarification of it's origins in this dealer statement.

bkdc Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 If the watch is opened from the front, how do you take the movement out? How do you remove the stem/crown from the movement? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estaban Posted November 30, 2006 Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 Here is a side by side with a Sub. That is one big watch.pam_vs._B_R.bmp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
