[justlounging]

looking good jay..looks alright to me..

let me have a look before you sell it k?

 

[mojojojay]

Lol , will do mike ! Doubt I'll sell it , it's for my wife .

 

[Asheron82]

bro i tink you should get a taka DW for thicker fonts, the stock one doesnt look as good thou.

 

[mojojojay]

Ya ESP after ar , it needa thicker fonts !
But that'll do for now

great looking piece, bro.. might have to settle for this for my girl as well.. since no 40mms around nice, nonetheless!

+1 on e D/W swap

 

[mojojojay]

You'll need to redo the ar , factory ar is extremely blue

 

[chromed.]

But not sure whether she can pull off 44mm lehh.. Alr my sub was kinda just nice.. Hmmm.. Hopefully H factory starts producing some 40s!

Honestly, I dont think they realize the potential for 40mm PAMs.
They probably didnt sell very many of them when they were around and now it looks like they want to focus on the newest and greatest models.
In reality, an H-factory 40mm PAM would sell like crazy on the rep forums.

Though, the MBK/MBW 048 is apparently really good. Only needs an upgraded Date Wheel, Lume, AR (in my opinion), and CP flattened. Pretty standard as even some H-factory reps need this (well, exept for lume nowadays).

A little expensive @ $375 but really its only $75 more than the 104 (though the 104 needs a lot less). My girl definitely can NOT pull off a 44mm watch (she is very petite) so this is the only other avenue for a PAM for her.
And IMO its a pretty good choice...

New 104 is really good though, I am almost surely going to pick one up (if I dont like the new 088)...

Well guys , my wife is very petite also , maybe 5" wrist . Throw in a SS bracelet and make it a 299i , i can tell you guys for sure it will look good on your women . If it does and she doesnt like it , im sure you are happy to put it on your on wrist .

As for 40mm it cost 75bucks more , how about the mods you're gonna do to it . Crown . Cg . Lume. Dw . Ar?

She is a little japanese girl and looks goofy as hell wearing any of my watches, but none of them get small enough to fit her.
Regardless, I mulled it over and figure that 40mm will be absolutely perfect. Big but not ridiculous.

Definitely not the case for everyone though, and 4mm is a pretty small difference! And as far as mods, it comes with the territory I guess :lolcina:

 

[mojojojay]

I'm guessing all ur pams on leather straps huh ? Trust me steel bracelet will make it less goofy And it'll work on your jap girlfriend for sure .

Alright guys , need some advice .
Should I brush the case to make it a 299 ? Or should I just leave it as a 104 with ss bracelet ?

 

[polaris]

299 has the new bracelet, the discontinued 220 is the one you're thinking of.

Leave it polished and mix and match with straps as well.

 

[mojojojay]

Gotcha , I'll leave it as it is then
