tonton2000 Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 http://cgi.ebay.com/Unitas-Cal-6497-for-Pa...1QQcmdZViewItem i think it looks alright for the price. 5 available and 1 day left $35 each. Wadda ya think??
V Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 I think they are wrong for the Fiddy... This is the fifth Fiddy version Paul has and it is off.
tonton2000 Posted April 4, 2006 Author Report Posted April 4, 2006 I think they are wrong for the Fiddy... This is the fifth Fiddy version Paul has and it is off. Yeah but its right for the 217/111h/177h/any other h series
kegra Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 I think they are wrong for the Fiddy... This is the fifth Fiddy version Paul has and it is off. Kosta can you tell us a litle more why this in a no go ? Fiddy is only G ? John
V Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 This movement is only OK for the 217. The fiddy must have the PANERAI PANERAI PANERAI decoration.. and the 111H, 112H etc etc are too small to receive it. As it clearely says: ''This is for the 47 mm case''

My bad...so its only good for the 217. I thought the movts were the same size in the reps, just the spacer rings larger/smaller. Thanks for the info veni
Wolf Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 Yes fiddy is only G To get technical, The Fiddy is E.
Lollipop Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 (edited) So are there 2 versions of the ETA 6497, one for 44mm and another one for 47mm? :cc_confused: Edited April 4, 2006 by Lollipop
kegra Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 This movement is only OK for the 217. But 217 is lefty if iam correct, so the officene panerai sould be written upside down. The movement on ebay: Gen 217 so the conclusion is that this movment is not even for 217 so were this could fit (and be like the real deal) ? sure can "fit" in both 217 and 127 but this would be incorrect for those pams. John
V Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 so the conclusion is that this movment is not even for 217 so were this could fit (and be like the real deal) ? John Nowhere... hence the price
kegra Posted April 4, 2006 Report Posted April 4, 2006 I am really sorry to busrt your bubbles guys... But there's nothing like a 47mm 6497. They are all the same. I swapped from 44mm case to 47mm case. And let me tell you - i also swapped to a 45mm Radiomir case. They were all the same. Strange huh? Just watch the caseback and you'll see that on 47mm watches you see a tad more of the movement than on 44mm watches... Thats good news oliver.. I like when those bubbles are deflated.
Guest TTK Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) Oui....but the movement would fit this one of mine......and all I would have to do is replace the centre bridge plate....et voila!.....a swan neck regulateur in a Marina Militare body.....with the correct "upside down" legend.......NON ? Edited April 5, 2006 by TTK

Oui Should i ship the movement to you Neil and send me back the correct Marina Militare ?? John
alligoat Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Oh Neil, I love it when vous parlez francais!
Chronus Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Officine Panerai writing isn't upside down on the version on panerai.com http://www.panerai.com/s_special_editions...._categoria=4724
tonton2000 Posted April 5, 2006 Author Report Posted April 5, 2006 Well...... For anyone with a 177h/111h/cdg fetish the price is $40 per piece with 12 hours to go. Cheap as chips!
Guest TTK Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 (edited) Even better...I don't need to swap out the bridge plate....! How can you place an order.....it's an auction.....! BTW....has anyone noticed that the seller is "jetbaker"....and his company is JetCorpJet Acquisitions......hmmm....missing the 'mid'.....! Edited April 5, 2006 by TTK
Hari Seldon Posted April 5, 2006 Report Posted April 5, 2006 Does it mean the top five bidders get one? Or does the last guy bid for all five and get all of them at that price per piece as there is a quantity choice when you place the bid? I am sure it makes sense somehow but it is not very intuitive.
Logan Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 Well I got one... yes I have a 177h fetish.. When you bid you get the opportunity to bid for the number you require.. then I guess it just goes back down the list and allocates them to the bidders after the close of the auction. I paid $100 anyway.
V Posted April 6, 2006 Report Posted April 6, 2006 At that price (100$+30$ postage) 130$ I prefer to buy a whole watch with CN movement from Silix
tonton2000 Posted April 6, 2006 Author Report Posted April 6, 2006 I think $100 is a good price, especially remembering that when these first came out with the G series engravings they were going for over $250 a pop! Good going logan.
robideaux Posted April 7, 2006 Report Posted April 7, 2006 what sucks is i probably inflated the auction to 100 by bidding at the last second. i was outbid at 50 bucks and lost my space in the top 5. shittay
