Del 4,463 Posted September 14, 2011 I just opened up my new PAM 088, took out the A7750 movement and removed a small white fleck from the inside of the crystal. More importantly, I put it all back together and it still works! :( I'm rather pleased with myself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

onionbag 1 Posted September 14, 2011 It'll all end badly :( Just kidding! Nice one Del a good confidence building exercise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted September 14, 2011 Ding - I was super careful about dust and only had the movement out for a few moments. I even kept the case and crystal facing up the correct way and knocked the fleck out from underneath to minimise the chance of dust "falling" into the case...... You still might be right though! :( I was more concerned with fucking up the movement when I removed and then replaced the crown! Think I'll start re-luming it tomorrow.........NOT!

seclark007 11 Posted September 14, 2011 I think I'm going to buy an 88 dollar PAM from Robert just to open her up and start practicing. You the man Del....but I worry for you: I started with rollies and became a PAM lover.... this could turn you on Briets! :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You the man Del....but I worry for you: I started with rollies and became a PAM lover.... this could turn you on Briets! Yeah, maybe I shouldn't have started with a serviced $200 watch! As for my collection, I'm still really into Breitling (the Seawolf is with Fine DD at the moment and the white SOSF with KeNnY ) but I really love PAMs as well........now I'm worried too!
