Got a 202 and a fgd 203 dial which I think I'm going to trade as I just love my base dials...

However It needs a cg, I was told it could be a T crown but I highly doubt it bc its spring loaded, meaning stock DSN crown...

Here it is:

And the two crowns I have. One in the back (sometimes right hand side) has a deeper dish and is NOT spring loaded. One with the smaller dish is spring loaded.

I'm thinking replace it with the one on the right (is it a T-48?) or do nothing and contact t for a T48?

Thanks!!

tourby's new crowns are spring loaded, COLDI. The bevel on the sides of the teeth looks like DSN's over-aggressive bevel, but the PVD finish looks shiny, which is unlike DSN's.

Interesting..... Because of the different finish, I'm tempted to say it IS, in fact, one of tourby's new crowns. I'd head over to RWGjr and see what tourby thinks.

Thats what got me so confused. I bought it from a buyer...who was unsure but claimed that the sales ad he got it from the seller said it was a T crown.

The one on left looks like DSN (shallow dish)
One on right I has a deep dish and the one in the watch confuses me LOL

Let me know what you find out man!

You two are sick, sick people. And now that I have one PAM and another on the way, I feel I'm fated to join you. Especially since I've seen the matte ceramic 292 on RWG. HOLY MOLEY.

PAMs........they've gotten into me. :wacko:

After researching and comparing pics the onewith the deep dish looks like an EL crown and the shallow one like a DSN. Can anyone confirm this?

Well, tourby said that he wasn't able to make his spring-loaded crowns with as deep a dish as his other crowns, due to the spring loading.

It still looks like a DSN, only too shiney. Perhaps it was a DSN SS crown that someone had coated?

At the end of the day, a spring-loaded t48 in PVD is what you need - 'cause I don't think the one you have is it.

It also seemed to be missing a few teeth. I know the one on the watch and the shallow dish are both DSN. What I'm trying to figure out is what the deep dish one is. Been looking at the EL's and they seem spot on. Just wanted to see what you guys thought.

Now someone sell me a palp or t-48!
