Do the current crop of UNITAS based Panerais have spring loaded crowns yet?

Davidsen's do, and have for quite some time. All others, nope.

Thanks for the quick reply. I am not familiar with Davidsen, having had a sabbatical from reps until recently. Can someone PM me or let me know where I might sample some of his wares? Ta! B)

Your sabbatical must have covered the 'rise and fall' of Davidsen if he is unknown to you. He has a really good sprung crown which is available complete with a matching tube that has an OEM-type internal seal. IMO this is the best non-original crown available. However, complete watches from DSN are a complete pile of cr*p so do yourself a big favour by buying the crown & tube only, as an upgrade for a regular rep. Good luck and don't say that you haven't been warned - there are plenty of posts on the subject, complete with photos of unimaginable horrors.

Thank-you for the tip. Where/how can I get a complete crown assembly? Thanks!

Uh.... I would think contacting Davidsen would be a good start? ;)

Peepshow you smarta$$. ;)

At least tell him how to contact Davidsen as he asked where/HOW.

Daborn,

Look in the collector sectoin. He's in there. Has his own forum with a way to get in touch with him.

Has anyone done this? I haven't seen it posted, although I haven't been looking for it. Sounds like a quality upgrade if it works... So, anyone done it with a conventional, say Joshua 111H, rep?

That is his email:

That's correct. But, please, dabom, don't let the fact that you got this for free stop you from upgrading to supporter. RWG needs all the help it can get and you'd get a ton of additional great benefits by upgrading.
