FINALLY! My ETA 2893-2 PAM 063

[dylan]

Ok...so let the modding begin...

I've finally sourced an old school ( 2+ yr old) ETA 2893-2 (same movement as the genuine) PAM 063.

I have on the way...lello dw, chiefs cyclop, T-crown...some superlume and I'm good to go....
While I wait for the parts I'll just have to 'suffer' and wear it
as is...

I hate you.


Now, if you sell me that 063, you will be my new best friend, instead. Huh? Huh? Think about it....

 

[babola]

Very nice...indeed!

Just wondering though, how the heck did you end up with the brushed case :roll: :shock:

Not a biggie to polish though...patience and a lot of spare time

Great catch!

Holy crap, how did I miss that?!?!?!?!?!

Must have been looking at the dial and the small GMT pointer too much.

Yeah, dylan, like babola said, get a couple of cape cod cloths from Elliot and set a Saturday aside. :wink:

I know I know i know....

Or I could have the only brushed/polished 063 on the forum...heehee...um...special edition?

The reason I haven't yet polished...is because I'm thinking of making it custom and getting it PVD'd....
whatcha think?

Hmm, up to you really, but why screw up an almost perfect and one of the closest Pam reps ever made? :?
:wink:

[dylan]

ahhhh...Babs...always the voice of reason...

Well...my Lello dw arrived for it...my T-crown is on the way....i still need to source a cyclops...
and off it goes for modding....

Hopefully I'll get a pictorial review up in a few weeks...

nice piece, brushed or not, that's still a beauty. Have to agree on the PVD-- Why would you go through all that trouble of making it look gen and then throw it all away?

i wonder why the makers aren't churning out new reps like this now that we know they are capable of repping the 2892 movements and probably could do the 2893 just as easily.
