PAM 111 V3 Noob Y incabloc and MS screw mod

[carlosjonez]

Hi, it looks like on the ETA version of the PAM 111 we now have the Y shaped incabloc. Would it be possible for a newbie to rotate the incabloc 180 degrees or is it pressed in and difficult to turn without stripping it down?

I'm just wondering whether to get the Asian version and get it modded or get the ETA and try and do it myself...

Also does anyone know where we can get the longer MS screw from?

The balance cock need to be disasembled and the balance/hairspring must be removed before pressing out the incabloc. Removing and rotate the incabloc 180 degrees before press it back is the easy part. The hard thing is to remove the hairspring from the new etachron holder without good tools and get it back in the right position.
I would strongly recommend to let a watch smith do this.

I was completely unaware this watch was being offered by dealers with an ETA 6497 in it.

^Me too. If I knew that, I definitely would've picked one up instead of my clone version.

Dear friends, what is the PAM GUIDE for??

As said in the PAM GUIDE:

From Dec 2012 there are a Swiss movement version (TimesShop) with a perfect Incabloc but they are Low beat and have an horrible wrong Swan Neck typical of Noob. They are no worth in my opinion.

So above you have your answer
Save your money or go to a modder with your good Asian

Excellent, thanks ALE. I did email Wiz who cannot do incabloc mod, that is why i thought i would quickly ask you guys here. I will do as you say and get asian type. But now with much more confidence it is the right decision!!
