Ztech Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 Got this last night from ZTECH! He said it came from Silix with Asian 6497.........., well I opened the watch and found the following: The watch have no rubber o-ring on the caseback and the crown o-ring was very dry! I put a new O-ring in and greased it and the crown.......but the biggest surprise of all???????? The movement was Swiss 6497. I can't believe it at first, so I opened my PAM036 with Swiss in it, and lo and behold...... it's exactly the same! Z! If you're reading this, thanks Bro! I guess Silix gave us a free upgrade! Water Test came out to 10ATM! I will be swimming with this beauty!!! Here you go! Put a BOB Shark on it for the swimming! Hike, Wow! That's great. It actually came from Ruby and I had no idea that it was Swiss movement. Well, honestly, I wouldn't know the difference if it came and hit me on the head with a bat, but I'm glad she's in good hands now. Oh and your picture taking skills are making me regret the sale! Enjoy her my friend. z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmg Posted June 12, 2008 Report Share Posted June 12, 2008 That 1665 is bad a.. My mind is wrought with vintage fever; or is it RDD. Have you done anything to change the date font or the crystal? Vly, Nope, stock datewheel. A Watchmeisters overlay wouldn't fit -not enough clearance. This is a Gen tropic 116 crystal and I'm not 100% sure why the mag is off and seems greater than 2.5x. I think the crystal sits at a different height on the rep compared to a gen case, which is changing the magnification. Vintage!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
