You may also check, Abyss (blue shark), from Simona. Awesome combo!.
Default stiching is bkue, however, you my ask for a gold/tanned stiching to much aged tritium indexes. Recommended.

Yeap... That was my second choice (instead of the Archivio mare)...

Simona told me that she only was leather for one strap so if anyone is interested should better hurry.. :)

Hey guys, just received my QC pics from Trusty and wanted to get feedback from the community. Green light it?

Maybe there is a very tiny paint overfill on the bar at 15 on the bezel, but I would accept it.

Go for it. I think that Kilowattore is rght, but that over fill is so easy fix to anyone that no reason to reject.

Thanks for the suggestions guys! I just received my 087 today and it's a beautiful piece. Unfortunately the second hand won't move and it looks dead. This isn't my first PAM so I know I'm winding it correctly.

I got it from Trusty and will contact him. Any tips on getting this fixed myself without sending it back to China?

Same thing has happened to me and a few other folks -- I sent mine off for repair and have yet to receive it back. I'll be interested to hear what the issue is and if its systemic in the manufacturing process.

Try to find a local watchsmith if you can, instead of sending it back to China.

Any recommendations for a trustworthy watchsmith in the SF Bay area? It's going to cost me about 40 dollars to send it back to Trusty and he said he would cover everything back to me. Of course if I can get it fixed for less than that, that makes sense.

I can easily Google a watchsmith but maybe forum has dealt with watchsmiths that have dealt with reps before.

Thanks for the tip Netbis
