Bro this is amazing ! Seriously if you want to sell...uh hum..in the late future let me know lol Great Build my friend

Thanks all. Yeah, it took sometime to build this as it was hard to source certain parts, especially the crown guard (with correct lever) and swan neck. The swan neck has always been the killing point for me in rep 6497s. Managed to swap one from a movement i bought but it was inaccurate. Luckily i managed to find a supplier that produces the swan neck in better shape and better yet, plating it as well. Even the two little swan neck screws were sourced from another supplier as rep ones are usually deformed. Unfortunately i think i enjoy modding watches more than wearing them. This beauty has been staying in the box for a while now as i venture into Hublots so yeah, im probably selling it off soon.

Perhaps i'll start modding Pams again when the factories finally come out with consistent productions.

Many of us understand the hard job getting such a modified rep. I even perfectly understand you enjoy more modding watches than wearing them. Not all people have your skills.
Please, don't leave the good job on PAMs, makers for sure will stabilize their productions soon

I also like HUBLOTS, indeed I got a very good collection of HBBs and Fusion. I even started, as you know because you are posting on it, the most visited thread in HUBLOT Section:
“Official Thread” HBB V6 Evolution – Compilation of data

But PAMs is another WORLD !!

Anyway I hope you will keep your nice and helpful contribution in RWI PAM Section

Thanks in advance

Very very nice! I have a Marlin modded 111 in a v4 case with the same mods, except mine still has the lines at the lugs. They bother the crap out of me! It almost makes me want to sell it because I'm not handy enough...
