Chronus Posted September 1, 2006 Author Report Posted September 1, 2006 That's what I'm hoping for. Hopefully at a reasonable price.
Finepics Posted September 1, 2006 Report Posted September 1, 2006 Actually I might take a little credit here - this is the reply I had from Ken last week after I pointed out to him the problem with the bezel markers: "About the Pam187, we are still working to get that model released. I know the bezel is not so great on the first model so we will try to fix that problem as well." So there you have it - from the horses mouth. Read into that what you will but it will come - not a case of if but a case of when.
Watchmeister Posted September 2, 2006 Report Posted September 2, 2006 Hey wait a minute, I said that 5 months ago (actually Ken did). I am very impressed that his group is taking concerns from members seriously. Now whatever happened to Kenji? Anyone remember him?
ehtolcad Posted September 2, 2006 Report Posted September 2, 2006 guys i hate to rain on everyon else's parade, but the time has finally come that i too will take some credit. this may come as a shock to some, but upon reflection i have discovered that approximately two weeks ago, i bumped this thread with a funny one-liner. without that, who knows where this project would be. god speed gents.
Watchmeister Posted September 2, 2006 Report Posted September 2, 2006 Okay, I give on this one. But let me take you back to another place and time before RWG.cc existed: TRC - April 2006: Kruzer00: They are selling all over the world. However, at the moment, it appears to be only available outside Japan through the affiliate of the Japanese dealer. And as such the dealer can charge a hefty price. Then again the dealer earned his exclusive by outlaying $10,000 to buy the genuine 187 to allow the manufacturer to take it apart to CNC a number of the key parts and then providing a sizable intial order. To date only 150 or so have been made. There have been many rumors of the exclusive ending and wholesalers stepping up to make another large scale order. But none of those rumors have been confirmed. As for the 7753 version, we are told by the Japanese dealer that the decision as to whether to make it or not is likely to be made this Summer. But that doesn't mean they will elect to do so. I've been begging for a 7753 since late March. Alot of good it has done so far.
Willith Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 Ok, now I'll take credit for all of this because I've been a moderator on both RWG's for nearly 2 years now and that's a lot of work. Actually we can give Thomas credit over all of us for starting this forum and to Blade for starting RWG #1 and then credit back to Thomas for starting TRC many years ago, so there's a lot of credit to spread, but no PAM187 with the 7753 on my wrist, so who's taking the blame for that?
Watchmeister Posted September 10, 2006 Report Posted September 10, 2006 I don't want any credit, just the watch. I do hope it is forthcoming soon. At the rate at which new reps for new PAM and IWC models are coming I will be out of money by the time it comes.
Chronus Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Posted September 11, 2006 Already out of money And without buying those !
Dario33 Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Will this ever see the light of day or is all hope lost?
Watchmeister Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 I suspect all hope is lost. But I would love to be proven wrong.
Chronus Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Posted October 19, 2006 (edited) Me too! I still havent got the Asian 7750 version. Maybe I should start saving for the gen someday Edited October 19, 2006 by Chronus
Chronus Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Posted October 20, 2006 Yay! I better start saving! Hope it's as accurate as I've been wanting!

Chronus Posted October 20, 2006 Author Report Posted October 20, 2006 How do we reserve one of these Jos? Everyone give me a non-refundable $50 to reserve their spot.
docblackrock Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Everyone give me a non-refundable $50 to reserve their spot. Will you accept a non-refundable, non-exchangeable, non-transferable IOU written in lemon juice?
Watchmeister Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Wait a minute, that is what you said about the 194. Where's my fifty bucks?
docblackrock Posted October 20, 2006 Report Posted October 20, 2006 Where's my fifty bucks? He probably blew it all on a small glass of beer in Stockholm
