Pam 004

[Bazz]

This one has been a little while in the making.

It started out as a first gen 111 from EL, since then the case and buckle was sent to palp for a pvd coating, I replaced the canon pinion and hour wheel to the longer ones, I changed the dial to a Davidsen one and added a solid case back from Josh. I have a bigger pvd crown on order from palp and that will of course be changed once it arrives.

I will try and take some better pics when I have time

Some better pics, I am pretty happy with the way its turned out. At some stage though I may change the dial to 112h.

Beautiful watch Bazz

I've fallen in love with the PVDs, got a 195a little while back from Davidsen and just a few minutes ago ordered a PAM 026.. An OEM PreV cognac strap with PVD buckle is in the mail as well :-)

Wear it well!!!

This is gorgeous. PVD looks awesome. I love them but somehow I feel that they dont look good on my wrist. The finish on this one is sleek. Wear it well!! I might just go ahead and get one done.

swdivad: Cant wait to see yours as well!!

I have a Davidsen 195 in pvd of course, and I think the watch looks great on the wrist! Just another opinion thats all...

mikellem: I respect your opinion. I actually had a 5218-202A ordered from davidsen, had it on my wrist and just didnt seem right to me. Could be the finish, I reckon it is too dark, almost black. I know PVD has different type of finishes based on the material they use and the outcome also depended on whether the case is beadblasted. Well, I wasnt too keen on the one I had. My bro loved it so I passed it on to him. Nevertheless a great looking watch but not when it is on my wrist.

omg! i tot it's a gen when i first saw it during one of the wristcheck threads..well done on the mods!

[Faber]

perfect lookand combo...you will have now a a champion of wrist tiime for sure

[Bazz]

Thanks fellas

I think the strap and dial match up pretty well, but I may still put in a superlumed 111h or 112h dial not sure
