woohoo... order finally shipped!!!!!!
So just got my 177 today from Andrew/Trustytime.
It shipped very fast. Put in the post on the 14th, in my hands today, the 17th.
Packaged really well, a rubber cover covered the watch face and it was wrapped in cling plastic.
I did pre-order and I was given a similar delay, but all in all, it arrived about 7-10 days after I expected it.
The 177 is really a great rep. The AR coating doesn't 'flash' blue and is legible on steep angles, the strap pins are correct, the thickness of the swan neck is even, the dial looks right and the color on the numbers is excellent- it just looks perfect overall.
I was asked not to share the QC photos but my watch is exactly the same as on page 15. I haven't found and issues with it and this might be the best rep I own.
I'l live with it for a while and see how that statement holds up. But for now, this is a very great rep. If you love PAM's this is a great one to get.
Ok, first I have a crappy camera and these were the best I could do. Bad lighting, bad camera, great great rep.
One thing that many reps never get right is the luminescent numbers, this watch is the best out of all the reps I have.
I will see if I can get a better camera, as this rep deserves it.
how's the leather? is it thick and soft... or gotta break it in?
the strap is 6mm thick? Pics?
More like 4mm, but still decent. I tried to give mm and after rubbing it with finishing oils, it's not bad at all.
I'm still waiting for my 177M from Puretime which I pre-ordered about a month ago. My emails are going completely unasnwered, anyone else have better experience from them so far?
