pam 036

montanari · 26/8/24

hello everybody,
I would like a titanium with brown dial and I have the opportunity to get this watch
From the back looks like a 036?
The dial should be rectified
The back needs refurbishment
Probably the movement needs a check-up (but it's working)
Do you guys think it could be a good base to develop something?
Who can you do this job for me?

thank you from now for your valuable feedback

I’m not sure if that is a 36 or not, but, Belkin is the easy choice to do the work.

Agreed.

Depending upon price that's a nice little pickup

ahh, didn’t know that.

The only combination between titanium case, OPII mov, and open caseback is the 036. What I don't understand is the L dial because I thought 036 came with a T dial... maybe a swap?

montanari · 27/8/24

yes, and also be brown
so the dial needs to be replaced
the engraving in the case back and some scratches needs some works

Good day!
This is exactly what the very old factory PAM036 looked like. Regarding the L dial, there are "tales" that this is supposedly an existing transitional prototype, but I do not believe it, to be honest. It was rightly noted that Belkin can do some good work here, but if it does not undertake modifications, then I would ask it to make at least a dial plate - this was an affordable service, as I once heard (It is possible now that it is not so, but you will find out for sure only from him) and this would be half the battle. Yes, the movement is far from ideal, but apart from custom work, it does not get better. The engravings are also incorrect, but replacing them on the case is a lot of work, and making a new caseback - even with the availability of such a service, is usually not cheap, I would not suffer. Get a dial and, if possible, hands. Apart from the Rolli dial, all the others did it worse than Belkin, and finding others is a serious task.

Thank you
I checked with him for the dial only then
Or I supposed I will leave this

montanari · 28/8/24

Ah! Congratulation for your new position!
Have a nice day

montanari · 25/10/24

So case is correct
Dial by Belkin amazing
I made it a service all good
But
...
I replace the hands
Bought on AliExpress both yellow (too yellow) and green as you see too green
Where can I get the correct pale yellows one please?

Thanks

If color is your only concern i would suggest relume the hands, by diy-ing you can almost pick any color you like

DJ16013 · 25/10/24

Beautiful dial. Sorry can't help with sourcing hands. Maybe a simple relume will do?

I am building a 36 as well, I got my hands from helenarou, will let you know how they look when they arrive..
I will likely re-lume them tho.

Also, share some better pics of your 36
, would like to see it!

montanari · 26/10/24

You are right
Here you go

And here a comparison between the hands
The 5218 is a full Belkin built

Please let me know how it goes with your hands

ward1991 · 30/10/24

Thank you for this beautiful dial @Belkin12

@montanari
I dont have the helenarou hands yet, but i am really liking these stock noob 177 hands for the non-matching look!

montanari · 30/10/24

yes the color looks correct
please update here once you receive the pre vendome ones..I believe they need a lume from white to pale yellow..

pf78 · 1/11/24

Mine just arrived, it's a HF - Belkin hybrid

After looking at gen pics i believe white/slightly cream hands are fine, gen pics below
