Watchmeister Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 That has been the rumor. My fingers are crossed for those who are lusting after it. I have had mine now for a couple of weeks now (read as "I was desperate enough to pay any price") and I love it. That armor plated clicking bezel is the sh_t.

Watchmeister Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I have to admit that it does feel like you are wearing a bowling ball (duck pins - not candlepins) on your wrist. But people take one look at it and start talking to you. Even the teenagers on the subway who say it is bling blingiful. A small price to pay to impress the kids. Although I have to admit that your wrist starts to remind you of Flav-a-Flav's wrist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody Posted April 11, 2006 Report Share Posted April 11, 2006 I actually have dealt with this gentleman on ioffer before, before I found this forum of course. His name is Mike (Mac) and he is very pleasant to deal with, based out of TX. and He does overnight shipping if he has the watch in stock that is. So I would recommend him. But it certainly does not hurt to wait a while until our dealers carry them. Good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted April 12, 2006 Report Share Posted April 12, 2006 The case and the general feel of this watch are amazing. Far and away the best of any PAM I own. Hell the engraving on the back is fabulous. The crown and crown guard combo is far better than what comes on our "perfect Fiddy". Don't forget that as of now it is only in the Asian 7750 version. Although I have to say they have either changed the auxiliary gearing to the datewheel or redone the dial such that it appears to be centered between the 4 and 5 unlike our 7750 196's. Also, given the size of the overall watch and the larger date on a 7753 the date does look small. I have started to fantasize about putting a seconday minicyclops directly above the date so I get double magnification at the crystal level. I once read somewhere that they did that on the 2893 Power Reserve but I may be hallucinating. The other criticisms I would have which most people know about who are interested include non-working dateset button and non-working He valve which appears to be laser etched versus engraving on the gen. Bear in mind these comments are coming from a fairly obsessive collector. The important takeaway though is that I love the watch. On the 7753 version I have heard no good news. At best what I have been told by the Watchonpo rep is that they would "consider" doing a run in the Summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
