Newbie & 183H question

[DIAMOND-DAI]

Afternoon all! As a new member I thought I'd take this opportunity to say hi before hitting you with questions :fez:

Now to the questions

I've just ordered a 183H Radiomir black seal from pure time with the superlume and cannon pin fix mods. Just wondered what width straps these take as I want to get a vintaged leather for it.

Look forward to contributing to the forum!

Thanks for the response.....time to get strap shopping!!!

I didn't add the sapphire crystal to my order with pure time, only the superlume/cannon pin fix.......perhaps I should have!!!!

Perhaps you should have contacted Davidsen, he offers a much better 183 IMO. Or buying a 380 would have been a very nice decision as well.

Ironically, my first PAM rep ordered was a 183H from Puretime, with the same mods and sapphire as well. I did not like it, since the superlume was far from REAL superlume.

Enough ranting from me, let us know buddy upon receipt, and POST SOME PICS!

On the strap issue, radiomirs can take 26 and 27 mm straps. If you want to go OEM style elegant, they should be tapered to 22m. Google will give you quite some hits on that, go and check it out.

BUT a nice 26mm ammo strap looks killer as well on Radiomirs, just like this (copyright by GunnyStraps):

I looked at the 380 but I'm a sucker for a sandwich dial!

Hi mate im a noob aswell received my 183 this week, and received this strap from panatime today what you think? my photography skills are not the best :/

Jms- looks good mate!

My 183h is currently having the cannon pin, superlume and sapphire crystal mods done and should ship this week.

I have incoming a Greg Stevens strap for it too so it'll go on as soon as the watch arrives.

Already fancying my next Pam rep!
