yellomen Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hi guys, I am mailing with David about a better GMT hand for the PAM88 & Pam89. The pointed arrow on these reps are too big, so i figure maybe he could make the in the correct size. I don't own one of these yet (but i plan to). My questions... 1. who is interested in having a correct size GMT hand for their PAM88 or PAM89? 2. Who can measure the size of the hand, canonpin hole etc... Of course you would need to have a rep PAM88/89 to measure the size of the hand and hole... the size of the pointed arrow should be the same size as the arrow on the PAM63 i guess. Please opinions on this idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pannylovernr1 Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I'm desperate for better hands for my GMT 63 and previous attempts has been left hanging for a while Think Finepics mentioned something about 400USD for setting the machines http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=14603&st=0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted December 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 What's wrong with the PAm63 hands?? My PAM63 has very good hands IMHO... The PAM88 & PAm89 have a really bad GMT hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finepics Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I already tried this but DSN wanted too much to make them so it was not worth it - good luck!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highflyingclive Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 That oversized GMT pointer is the only reason that I have not bought one of these, yet. A fix would be nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lello Posted December 11, 2006 Report Share Posted December 11, 2006 Just wanted to spot that the GMT pointer it's not the only flaw on these hands. The minutes hand is slightly too narrow on the rep. On this pic you can see the difference. So, in c ase we would manage to let David remaking the hands properly, also the minutes one should be re done. Other little flaws: - Same as usual, crown, cyclops and date font. - As you can see, the line between #18 and small seconds dial, is missing on rep. - The type "L swiss made L", it's not perfect, as it is too big and below 12, rather than besides. - Unfortunately, my favorite 089, also has totally wrong dial color, as the gen has anthracite dial and not black, or brown.

shultz Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 Is that topic still relevant? I would like improved hands because that flaw kept me away from ordering a 088 or 089. I would be in for a full hand set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
