The main question regardless engraved/painted issue - can I replace the movement in Pam 111M to this one? Will hands match, etc.? I would give it to watchsmith for such operation but things like not matching hands will be a show stopper :/

What do you mean the hands not matching?

none of mine was engraved as ive now removed all writing from all bridges NOT engraved anywhere please can somebody post pictures of there engraved movement from kuvarsit
I thought you got yours from Kuvarsi? Also, I did contact them they stated its not engraved, but looks like it is.

simply holes in H-maker watch hands (hours, minutes, seconds) can be to big or to narrow when trying to install them on different movement's pins. I encountered this problem twice, when changing hands on my DSSD - I got hands from another movement and they simply were not matching original movement.

I want to avoid this problem this time.

Both of my movements from kuvarsit are not engraved. The printing is very fine and well done, much better than any previously available engraved movements IMO.

Had one transplanted in my 176 by Zigg comming back to me next week. He did not mention any specific issue with the transplant.
