KW PAM 505 finally! [QC Pics Allowed]

Very nice! how hard is it to change the straps on Rads?

Not at all. You unscrew the screws in the back of the case and slide the lug bars (?) off. Once you unscrew them from the case they pull in two.

I don't own a Rad (yet) but this is my understanding.

Ok, I thought the bar was one piece and I was thinking how much of a pain it would be to change the straps. Nothing beats changing the straps on a fiddy case though.

It's more work compared to Luminors but it's not that hard.

Just received it. It's amazing! Having not owned any KW P9k watches, I was stunned by the movement. It's just mesmerizing the way it blings under light.

Two screws per side instead of one, not hard.

Looks gorgeous brother! Mine should arrive tomorrow.

You have a video tutorial in PAM GUIDE Section 6 explaining the way to change straps in all PAM types.

Now that is funny, becase the watch on the video is not my watch BUT the watch on example photos:

http://www.yourperfectwatches.com/new-watches/panerai-uv-pam-505o-composite-1950-3-days-dlc-le-brown

IS MY 505 - down to the serial number, missing bit od paint on PANERAI on rotor, etc.
It is the same as on Joshua's photos on PC site, too.

that's my:

Nice write up, thank you. I just got one also and I really like it. The issue IMO;

lume is not nearly as good as other recent PAMs. Also be careful with the lug screws- mine

were very loose, and seem pretty soft, not hard to strip I would guess. A bit of Lok Tight

Blue should do the trick.

OPPS- duplicate post, sorry I didn't realize there were 2 threads.

Looks like an awesome piece. The 388 would be a sure winner.
