I have a 253 adn the more i look at it and i have only wore it 3 times, the less i like the bubble dome face. Is the 196 with the swiss 7753 worth the extra money? can a person get the 196 in fiull polish including CG and pushers?

Dont know too much about the 196 but I am in the market for a 253, so I will gladly talk to you about taking your pam off your hands. PM me at any time.

You have to watch out that 196 has different case construction (new and old case), check out the bezel thickness. The older, thicker bezel is a much more desirable model. From what I am aware off, the tall bezel with 7753 is no longer made.

Is the a pam being repped out ther that is similar to the 196-251 that does not have the numbers around the polished surface of the bezel? And that has the flush non bubble crystal in a 44 or 45 mm?
