My First TD Purchase

[AP Boy]

Well I did something I never thought I ever would and I purchased a rep from a TD. I have bought a few from members CONUS as I worried about customs and watch never showing up.
I researched several here and finally choose Ryan @ Intime (great Feedback from established members) and it still was a little stress filled worrying about what all could go wrong.
Other then the watch being shipped before receiving QC pics (sometimes accidents happen) my watch came in w/o any problems and I am very happy...even ordered another the same day as this one arrived.

Thanks Ryan & Intime, AP Boy Panerai Fan
P.S. Even wearing it today!

Congrats on your first TD purchase.

How is the wobbly second hand?

Do you afraid to breath too?

Funny you mention that as I have been pondering why it happens and how to fix all morning...mine goes slightly either way of center. Is it a matter of the gear teeth on the subdial being to large and if so can that be replaced?

If one was not going to use chrongraph function any (probably puts more stress on inferior Asian movement) then can the had be simply frozen straight up in place somehow?

Anyway if anyone budding horologists can answer I would be interested to know.


P.S. I could not find anything using the search function. :r2d4:
