Whereto buy a 212 crownguard ?

Hi,

I've got a PAM 212 in a trade (not the ultimate model) and had it revised. It's a nice watch now (after brushing and polishing).

However the CG is far from correct : it has no Reg. TM engraving and doesn't close properly. Also I lost a screw.

I'd like to buy a new CG with correct engravings (and screws).
Remember it's a 1950 case, and a chrono (with round pushers).

I've looked on Jackson's store, but he has nothing for chronos (except if I missed the thing).
A full case could be an alternative too.

Anyone has a hint for me ?

Thx for reading

you could by a genuine CG for about $400

I bought this from Angus and at the time I was a Mod on RG and knew Angus quite well , the next day I looked at the watch and the CG and screws were gone so I am looking too , it's been over a year with no luck and they are very hard to find for a 212 ( 1950 ) especially the screws because they are smaller than the bigger bodied Pams
I asked Angus about it and he said "the factory doesn't sell just parts ok" ..
I have never found any of the stores helpful for the 1950 case

ARRRRRH !

Time to drill and tap.

@Zed, that's the bad news of the day...

Drilling might be an option for the screws, but I first need the CG...

If I had 400 bucks to spend in a 212, it would rather be for a brand new ultimate fully modded version... I guess.

Drilling isn't an option on the 212 as the screws from the bigger Pams are just too big for the 1950 CG so it would have to be drilled too and then you would see the hole sticking out under the CG lever ..

Good luck in your search Pix !

Wouldnt the CG screws for a 233/270 fit these? If so you can get them from Jackson.

I have sent a PM on the CG

Basically I blieve any screw for a 1950 44mm case should be OK...

I'll check with Jackson. thx
