Newbie needs HELP

[captainjz16]

ive been ready this site now for almost 2 days instead of studying for the bar exam and i figured id just post my question to try and save some time. Im looking to buy a 104. Ive looked at:
puretime's 104 ultimate w/asain 7750
trusty's 104 w/7750
perfect clone's 104 w/7750

I've read that all are great sellers, is there anyone else's im missing? Ive read about angus, but i couldnt find him.

As an alternate, i was looking at the 111.
pure time's 111E ulitmate w/asain swan neck
trusty's 111h/g w/swiss swan neck
Ruby's 111h w/swiss swan neck
davidsen's 111e/h
i also read angus has a great 111e

Thanks for any help. I know im asking a lot, but im trying to make the best informed decision.

all of the 104's you listed are the same watch... each of those dealers gets them from the same source...

check out the DSN (daviden) 104 also... viewtopic.php?f=40&t=38986

i have had both versions of the 104 and i would recommend the DSN one over the ultimate for the better dial (the subdial is recessed while the ultimate's is not) and it is super-lumed already... but this is just my opinion...

First, welcome to the forum

Now, some answers:
Trusty (aka Andrew) and Perfect Clone (aka Jos Nana aka Josh) have exactly the same watches at the same price.
Angus is Puretime
You can also check DSN (aka Davidsen) for a 104.
you can also look in the sale sub-forum where Legend of speed (a moderator here) has 1 for sale at a great price (last time I looked)

Now go back to studying :wink:

Cheers

 

[pafre]

sorry, just looked again and LOS' one on sale is in the VIP only sales.
Hurry to become one :wink:

 

[captainjz16]

[pafre]

If it is a PVD model, definitely check with Davidsen. He has the best PVDs.

 

[oldmar]

no it is not a PVD
my question is that their watch as a Unitas . does Davidsen watch has Unitas ?

 

[nikos]

bump!Newbie needs help!

 

[oldmar]

by the way guys wich is the difference between 111H and 111E ?
i am trying to find it in the forum but no chance :roll:

 

[buckeye]

simply...the difference in the 111h and the 111e is in the numbers on the dial. The 111h has the numbers engraved (recessed) and the 111e has the numbers painted on the dial surface.

There are also differences in the movement and it's decoration.....

btw, Silix is a good dealer: cheaper but slower.

good luck

 

[oldmar]

buckeye thank a lot !!
I show that the decoration on the movement is more nice in the 111E with the name panerai mentioned continiously
but by the way the gen is like E or H ?

 

[nikos]

I think the 11h has the so called "sandwich dial" and saphire crystal display case back. It is also supposed, i think, to have a swan neck regulator -which is not easy to find anymore. As for the 111e, i don't know which model you are refering to, the 111G though, has the so called "sausage dial". So, you left Radiomir for Luminor Marina?

 

[nikos]

I see now, I think Davidsen's 111E is the same with Andrew's/Josh's 111G. If i am wrong, someone correct me please.

 

[oldmar]

Nikos I have not yet decide between radiomir and luminor marina :roll:
anyway the questions are newbie :lol:
what about the silixprime pan that mention ''bridge manual'' ? what it means ? davidsen and angus don't mention something as that ??

 

[oldmar]

anybody about this ''bridge mnanual'' ?

 

[hooligan]

I'm not sure which watch you're talking about, but I suspect the "bridge manual" is a typo. I'm assuming what it means is that it's a manual wind movement with Panerai shaped bridges, as they are a different shape than the standard ETA/Unitas bridges on the 6497.
