PAM 088 From Purtime - Thoughts?

[raym50]

I decided to step in to the PAM world and have my eyes on the 088. Has anyone reviewed or can speak to the quality and flaws of this one?:

Any required upgrades? I am not a handy person and can not do any upgrades etc, though I would send it to someone if upgrades are needed.

Thanks Guys

Looks pretty good. You would likely need to get it relumed by a quality person like vaccum, but I can't think of anything else. Maybe get a t48 crown for it...

Thanks, What is a T48?

T48 is an aftermarket crown made by t/tourby over on RWGjr. While the SS has very very minute flaw (on the side bevelling), the Titanium version is PERFECT. It fits most DSN and usual chinese PAM case both manual wind and 7750 version. You can fit the 2836/2892 version by using 0.9mm stem version. The manual wind and 7750 can accept 1.2mm stem size.

48 is the number of teeth on the crown. There is also T60 crown with 60 teeth.

Though T doesnt make these anymore only be available used.

Marcus (OP) has done a run of new crowns based on gens and Palps as in the innner dish of crown is recessed or not depending on gen/LH cg or gen rep CGs.

Contact him to order

Thanks Guys. Should I order this one or is it preferable to order from DSN? Would DSN be more accurate?

Thanks, Pete, I didn't know OP's crowns were available, yet. Cool!
