177L w 111j upgrades... Check it out!

[cgn1017]

Just put the 111J dial on my 177 and grabbed an old eta movement w excellent bridges I had laying around swapped for the Asia H factory movement. Couldn't use the better 177 hands bc of differences in CPs between movt's so had to settle w older super lumed hands. They ended up matching, not as wide lume area though. Let me know what you think! Sorry ab the iPhone pics.

Looks good to me... I like the PAM more and more everyday!

You CAN use the H-factory hands BUT You have to bend the edges a little on the inside of the hands on the small "tube" that is going on the cannonpin.

As the H-factory hands are one of the best (most genuine looking!) I think it is worth a try!

Really?? Hadn't thought of that. Think I'll do a little tinkering this weekend.

I thought you could just swap in the 177's cannon pin and have the hands be "bolt-on" fitment instead of modding them to fit the 111J cannon pin.

Didn't work for me for some reason. But once I get new tools I've got some other CPs that fit my 177 hands so I'll put em on then... Sweet!
