It is a great watch. Had Strodda service mine and relume the pearl and hands to a lighter shade. Think it turned out great.

Thanks Grim: Wonderful review which gives me orientation for further mods.
Q: what mix of lume would you suggest for reluming the reps hands to match your gen hands?

lume mix all depends on what your working with. I'd start with white and add a bit of yellow to make a light cream color. Then add a small amount of C3 light green to give it the appropriate greenish cast.

[MENTION=35495]Strodda[/MENTION] is a master of the lume. Send all lume work his way. Nice upgrade.

Yeah I recommend Strodda for anyone in CONUS. At the time he was doing my 087 he said he was working on a Franken 087 so I assume that was yours. He gave me a side by side pic. I got a 243J coming with a Gen dial, Going to send it to him to have him match the hands and pearl like he did on this one.

I send shane stuff that I need painted or lumed perfectly. Other than that I stumble through my own stuff. LOL

[MENTION=63540]Grimlocktime[/MENTION] great review !! The only thing that bothers me (just a tad bit) about this rep is the too yellow hands ...

No worries about the dealer. All PAM 087 from H maker are the same whatever is the dealer

Thanks! follow up question, which size did you get? Torn between 75/130 and 85/140 for a 7 inch wrist.

It depends on how much tail you like on your strap. But since the strap is thick it wears a bit smaller. A 140/90 will wear more like a 135/80
