netniet Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 What a ugly beast. I would sell it (to me) right away if I where you. LOL. But seriously, it a very nice watch. It was a long time on my wishlist, but I am wondering if it is not to big for my wrist. Wear it with pride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umairarif Posted November 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 the only reason i chose it was the size of it on my wrist but it is fab piece from all aspects cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Always liked the Bigger subs.... These are lovely OTB reps and with a few simple mods they can be great...but regardless still great reps...it was this or the Fiddy or MM up until recently but I am starting to like a lot of the new rep 47 subs that are starting to come along... and that are soon to be released.. At least it adds to the choices which is never a bad thing Congrats and wear it in good health Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteM Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 I mostly dont get the short words or names used on the forums like above you said fiddy-MM- 47 subs. what mods can be done to it? thankyou There is a sticky thread in this section that lists some basic PAM words and terms that might be useful mate.... Have a look and read... Fiddy is slang word for fifty...which in turn refers to the style of case first seen in the Vendome era on the 127 which had "1950" on its dial and used a fifties style case..hence Fiddy, it was an homage to the classic vintage PAMs of the fifties and sixties.. MM refers to the destro (left handed) version of the 127 which was the 217...it is sometimes called the Marina Militare again it is on its dial it also has a fifties case and is an homage by OP to the vintage PAMs of the fifties/sixties hence why both have REG TM on the CG as this was first designed and Trademarked in the early fifties... (Basically ) Mods on these 187s vary but generally the common one is to redo the pearl and lume the hands to match the gen.... the rep hand and markers match but on the gen they are different colours (basically ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umairarif Posted November 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 how about water proofing just from swimming purpose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 27, 2013 Report Share Posted November 27, 2013 personal choice mate.... I never bother... as even after it dont take much to undermine it generally On another note ..be very gently with the quick date change.... if you can... avoid using it... they are reknowned for breaking and you wont fix it.... I think someone like Domi can make it more robust as long as its still working... If you water proof then get that Quick change function sorted first as best you can .. as if you dont you will have wasted your money on WP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been waiting, thinking they would eventually sort it out. Bummer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
