TeeJay Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 OKay, this isn't a project I plan on starting anytime soon, as I just don't have any spare funds, but, I thought it would be a nice little project to have in mind for the future. Essentially, I want to put a PAM dial (preferably 127) into a pocket watch. Does anyone know of any pocket watches available which would be able to accomodate such a dial/hand setup? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
t Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 you need only a pocket watch case which accept a Unitas movement. I should have one pocket watch case as spare... genuine from Maurice Lacroix!!!! But it is gold color. I have pocket watch case from ML and also Tissot. All genuine and mint. regards T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This project is sounding easier already I think I'll have to find an SS (or other silver colored) case to be in keeping with the PAM theme, but this is sounding more and more like something I could actually do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sssurfer Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 you need a big dial... and pam dials are only 34-36mm... or any bigger? Yes, the dial of 44mm models is 34mm (34.5 for ST-2530 powered models). The dial of 47mm models is 38mm though. So it might work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it might work. I think it's going to be an instance of finding a case to fit the dial, rather than a dial to fit the case Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
