Is there an Auto Luminor with a Titanium case?
I like the new one as they are Pam's (the same way i like all puppies)but the 177 still takes it.
It will be the only watch i will pass as a gen, the plan is to have 2-3 in rotation with different straps. But Auto would be ideal

I see the 329 is but the bezel is polished, not brushed!

Ummmm.....

The case should read as polished for the 359, and with the claim on 1:1 casebacks?? The 359, at least, is a display-back P9000 movement.

Color me skeptical over here...

Great, I ordered my 177L from puretime bafore CNY when they said it was still in stock, then they lowered the price over newyear with the voucher code and now this. If i had waited with sending an order I'd be up 20 bucks and less of a wait. Oh well...

So is the 177M good then?

What's the difference to the 177L??

What was wrong with the caseback on the L that they've corrected for the M?!

I have the 177L from Lay and I have no idea what "the crown guard problem and also the caseback problem" is on the 177L.

Does anyone know what the M supposedly fixes?

I suspect things have been lost in translation. My guess is that the "crown guard problem" is likely the well-discussed issue regarding the spacing between the case and crown.

The "caseback issue"? Who knows. The case back on the original release was fine IMHO. Dagger is still the wrong shape so that can't be the issue that has been sorted out.

On an unrelated note, I am sure I am in the minority, but I really dislike the 359 from a design perspective so I could care less about that release. I do like the 312, 328, etc. so that is good to see.

These are not from the H-factory, so I am a bit skeptical.... I am going to sit back and relax and let others be the guinea pigs on these releases.

I asked Angus and this is what is wrong on the 177L:

some of the casebacks had bad threads

And the crown should have a little bit more distance from the case

And the engraving should be a little deeper


I asked Angus to ask the factory to correct thoose things and he said he will ask them BUT You never know what the factoris care for making it different from the L series.

Perhaps it is just the "M" that is the differnce but let hope they do some of the things above!
