Hehe, yesterday I showed you my ziggyfied PAM029. Here is my PAM127: Davidsen hand set and ar coated sapphire crystal, swiss (hope so..) swan neck 6497 with G-series engravings, cnanon pin fixed by ziggy and re-lumed as well with SL. Watch is shown on shark strap by BOB.

Enjoy:











A lume shot (wasn't dark enough, sorry :D



And a group shot with her sisters :D

That is a beautiful Fiddy you have there.

I also liked the shot of HIM with HIS BROTHERS!

Very nice shultz, this is what I am having done to mine as well since there are no ultimate fiddys left but I am going with a gen 6497-1 movement.

Nice work...shame for the movement though (hybrid 6497-1, I had it as well) and the case is slightly 'wrong' e0581, but nevertheless great Fiddy :wink:

...we all need to put one thing in perspective - the new 'updated' real ETA E-series movements seem to be thing of the past now (they only lasted for few months, anyway) unless what Andrew says is true, and it's just a temporary 'glitch' in supply :?
I wish I kept that latest version of Eddie Lee's Fiddy... :cry:

So in absence of the latest e-series movt's, the hybrid shown on the pics above is as good as it gets, and although mainly Asian, not a bad movement altogether either :)

Some of the lucky ones that bought Fiddy with Swiss E-series ETA year or so ago are, indeed - lucky :)

BTW, love your 177G shown above!

cheers,
babola

Well, it isn't a 177G. It has got a solid Ti case back and (despite the wrong serial number :D ) should be a PAM061. The dial isn't that brownish as the tobbaco dial but more like brwon/ grapphite. Ziggy did the SL sausage markers. That watch is glowing like hell.

Here is a gen 061 (the dial doesn't look brown as on my rep):

Very Nice Fiddy!!! I'm waiting on a EL Fiddy swiss 6497 unmodified bridges, sapphire, bought from a member over on Replica Collector. It's my first Fiddy (I had a Slytech that I sold so I know the size is no problem) there's a Bob Vertigo strap awaiting it's arrival should be today can't wait! :D

Do you mean something like that:
:D


TO be honest:

I don't like white dials and have already a black 202 dial in stock. Will be swapped asap.

That's a beautiful watch. That is a watch to be proud of. However, from the pics the movement does not look to be true Swiss, but an Asian ETA clone. But even being an Asian clone, it still looks really good.

It must have been a diferent 061 rep dial version, I've got 061 that looks much more brown-ish than on your pic...I could swear the dial on your pic was black, that's why I made a '177G' guess.

Looks good anyway, just remember the brown rep dials (061/118/036/203) are much more 'brown' than gens, gens come with dark subdued tobacco dial color, the one I've never seen so far in reps. Your 061 could be an exception :wink:

I agree with your points 100% I also wonder why he used green lume on the fiddy?

Actually the lume is C3. Probably it depends on the pic that the lume appears a bit greenish.
