Looking forward to the first wrist shots. Because I wonder how a 18,5mm looks at the wrist.

About the same as a 243 to be honest. Except it might fit your wrist better since it doesn't utilize the 1950's case.

Thanks for sharing J

The guy at the video sounds like Steve Jobs at a Apple Keynote...I think he is really a Paneristi [emoji16]

18cm just over 7 inches is my wrist which is small I guess as I lost a fair bit of weight over summer... Piling it back in now it's getting cold in London [emoji514][emoji507][emoji485][emoji482][emoji515]

Yes, this. Please slaughterer. Thanks!

I am definitely not curmudgeonly on QCs because I hate to break TD balls. And BTW, the CG corners on the gen are pretty rounded, but, for Zoomboy's delectation:

Just to confirm that the gen has rounded corners to the inside of the crown guard and that the brushing on the case is finely done unlike the QC pictures I have seen

Btw the pin on the crown guard is brushed but I am not sure if this is how the original was initially sold when released.

Hi shoes
Thanks for your cooperation in this thread with the info from your gen

Maybe the inner corners of the gen are not rouneded but chamfered, like happens in some old PAM models
As I'm showing in below pic at the right side

pam%2520087-%2520inner%2520chamfered%2520CG%2520copiar_zpsqx9jf4ly.jpg


Please confirm it

I would like also to get the opinion from @Grimlocktime gen

Is this a picture of a gen?
