dadog13 Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 another one of the great reps...that are out of production...really nice...does it have the swiss7753? and what is the tot of $$$$ invested...1000$
ajoesmith Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 Kruzer00 how did you install the homer crown on the 7750 stem, i have a homer crown but its too big for the 7750 stem Thanks
Watchmeister Posted March 23, 2007 Author Report Posted March 23, 2007 It is a 7753. I would say the all-in is $800-850. On the crown installation I will have to defer to Ziggy when he sees this post (if he does). I do know that he has routinely used stem adapters and different sized stems when fitting all the various crowns I have had him try though. Also, I believe there are two different sized stems which fit 7750's generally. I don't know if this is true for 7753's.
tech Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Looks great. Now I know what is next up on my plate! cheers
robertk Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Great looking! This is one of my favorite Pams........maybe My favorite. The crown and date wheel look great!
RWG Technical Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Kruzer00 how did you install the homer crown on the 7750 stem, i have a homer crown but its too big for the 7750 stem Thanks Easy, just buy the stem that fits the crown, in this case, 1.20mm stem, and the problem is solved. RG

V Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 Beautiful watch W.. Wear it in good health and enjoy it
SenileCoot Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I see that the "deep" datewheel has been fixed as well. It is fixable on both Swiss 7753 and 7750?
Pam-O-licious Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I'm sure this is a 7753 but, I will let him confirm
babola Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Old school it is... I wish reps we get these days had some of the quality of 'older' rep generations cheers, babola
Watchmeister Posted March 28, 2007 Author Report Posted March 28, 2007 Senilecoot- There is no recessed or wrongly placed date issue on the 7753 versions. It is the same movement as the gen. Chieftang- Yes, it does deserve a proper single-sided AR coat as does my 196 and Panda. Babola- I am with you on the old school reps - whether original movement PAM's, Chrono Avenger, MBW's or DW's. As you know the the whole game has changed. The new high end reps come out of the box better aesthetically but with Asian movements so now the question is often whether to upgrade the movement. Eddie's Pilot (which looks fabulous) and my BCE are in for movement swaps - for Old School movements of course. All my 7750's are 17j but 100% Swiss.
Pam-O-licious Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Old school it is... I wish reps we get these days had some of the quality of 'older' rep generations cheers, babola Well, I happen to disagree... I have a "New style" Pam 188 (7753) and the Dial looks FAR superior to the old ones... My only compliant are the Lug hole position and the fack these new cases use different Screws
