ajoesmith Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 UPDATE ON PAGE 3 I have an idea I really like the New B&R 03-92 42mm with date. Its much better than the 46mm as it smaller and also has a date. Here is the plan. The PVD coating on this watch is not real PVD and looks crap. If my memory serves me correct, swdivad, a member in australia has a contact for PVD coating. What ill do is 1 - organize the buying of the watches 2 - disassemble the watch from the case 3 - Send the case to get PVD coating 4 - Reassemble the watch 5 - Post to members All you have to do is pay for it, no hassle and no fuss. Ill have to contact swdivad if he can organize the PVD coating for us If this is feasible then please post your interest here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chronus Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Search for a thread i started a few weeks ago about PVD, David kindly posted pictures of his PAM there. Just be aware that true PVD is NOT black and more of a grey/violet colour. This is true for genuines as well. I don't have internet at home at the moment, so sorry I don't have the time to do the search right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a german in denmark Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 I would be in, depending on the cost, of course... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWP Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 (edited) I would be willing to supply both the watches and the pvd coating for this groupbuy. The pvd coating I have contracted out here in the states and their is a minimum order, but i am getting ready to send about ten panerai cases off for PVD treatments. Hell my schedule may allow me to even disassemble the watches. Feel free to contact me at thewatchprince@gmail.com , or you can always pm.

Chronus Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Does this watch have a genuine ETA movement ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajoesmith Posted September 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Does this watch have a genuine ETA movement ? No, it has DG4813 28,800bph. A reliable movement, comparable to ETA 2836, cheap and readily available, only $25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the offer TWP, however i have sourced this watch cheaper than any dealer. Lets wait to hear back from swdivad about the PVD coating Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where to get it in Europe but ofrei has it for $25 maybe also cousins UK as they have the DG2813, so they may also have the DG4813 As for the price, currently the dealers have it for $180, i should be able to get it for around $140/150 if we get the numbers.

Virgil Hilts Posted September 10, 2007 Report Share Posted September 10, 2007 Joe, Can you post some pics of their work? Especially anything in deep black, as the BR's are? A buddy of mine has a gen BR-03 and it's pretty dark. If the color is right, I'm in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephane Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 Hi Joe, As we already dealt toghether, so I know you are a serious and trustable guy, I would like to be in. It might be for one or two watches. I suppose it's the same watch than the one of Pismo, right ? (http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=47514) I'm ok with the asian version. So, once you have a price idea, pls let me know. Cheers Stephane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
professor_yaffle1 Posted September 11, 2007 Report Share Posted September 11, 2007 I like the sound of this......dependent on price and confirmation of spec (i.e. I would like the rubber strap version with white numerals), please count me in.

Cheers Stephane Hi Stephane Thanks for the kind words, yes im an honest guy and this will be my 3rd project/group buy, the other 2 being ETA 7750 group buys. Its the same watch as Pismo's Ill be able to get for $140/$150, the PVD coating will be $?, i have yet to hear from swdivad but chieftang PMed me about it and he'll let me know the cost and if the PVD coat is good or not. The extra cost will be for postage. so 1 x watch $140/$150 1 x PVD Coat say $100, not sure probably more shipping around $40, this includes shipping to get PVD and registered shipping to the customer. Total around - $300 - please note this is only an estimate, the final figure may be more, depending on PVD costs and also postage costs back and forth.
