That's a very nice piece you have there, my friend. How did you take such a steady shot of it? I need to learn the pic-shooting craft!!! :?:

Cabbage, thanks. Are you referring to the screws that secure the bars for the straps? I noticed that the bar on the right at the top of the case protrudes out a bit further than the one on the left at the top.....I have no idea how to fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey Crumpdaddy, nice catch on that piece. I'm still considering which Pam should be my first, the 111H or a Black Seal. Both are very nice pieces so I just may get them both.

Now, speaking of pieces, that DymePiece Hoops on as your avatar is sick! Man is she nice....

If you lose a sdcrew or strip one Gen screws will fit :) goto a Pan dealer and they arent too expensive.

EL = Eddie Lee.

Cracker, thanks for the tip. Do you (or Enzo) happen to know where I can acquire a PAM screwdriver - or one that would do the trick without harming the watch? I think I am ready to change the straps on this bad boy....thanks.

What is the watch diameter? If it's 47mm, most likely it will have 26mm straps.

Hey there Takashi. It's a 45mm

You think I need to search for 26mm straps?

OK to be safe, take out a ruler and measure the lug to lug on the strap (provided you've already received the watch).

EDIT: indeed you've :)

In response to the previous question about having the wire end not fitting in the same amount as the other end, I had this problem also. I actually had to take a drill and drill the wire hole deeper so that it could be set to the proper depth b/c it was too shallow on one side. This helped mine. I don't know if you have the same issue.
