I guess that I should feel lucky that I have an 8 in my 420 serial number...

rolexcd · 15 March 2011, 10:48 AM

Hey, that is not a 420!!!

I really like it and would like to put it in my office, next to my computer so that I can look at it every now and then.

HL65 · 15 March 2011, 11:06 AM

Very nice- congrats!

leeye · 15 March 2011, 11:34 AM

How should I hassle? By what mean? I am willing to pay consultancy fees to learn?

I have adopted the "no harm trying" many times and I ended up being "harmed".

Alan,

Is that with serial 28/30?

I am waiting for calls from my in-laws back in Sydney that a lottery man knocks on my door. At the time, it will be mine!!!

All the best on your sourcing of the 420. Once you get yours, you should organise a gathering for all of us so that we can wear all of our 420s together. That will be interesting.

Anthony, your request is so special and near impossible to achieve. You could have gotten another model and attain the near impossible piece (at present moment). I would have agreed to this deal provided the boutique bring out the near impossible watch piece on the spot, otherwise you end up getting played out by the sales person if this deal does not come true.

You get harmed becoz you put too much heart into it. When expectations are high, the disappointment is even higher.

The 348 is really a very special piece and you can observe the tourbillon cage turning on both sides of the watch. Am surprised it is not sold yet.

ancs88 · 15 March 2011, 05:34 PM

Hahaaha... I was so engrossed looking at the movement and didn't notice the serial...

I really hope to receive the 420 soon! Just a little patience...

For the gathering, u guys can organize too!

Fearsome Puppy · 15 March 2011, 10:10 PM

Alan, if I had the 348 on my wrist I'd be tempted just to run out of the door...

leeye · 10 April 2011, 12:41 PM

here's my take on the 366, 410, 420

Fearsome Puppy · 11 April 2011, 08:03 AM

Great pics Lee, also really like your customized holders. So what are you thinking Togo into the three empty slots?

leeye · 11 April 2011, 09:03 AM

got space for 1 x 367, the other 2 slots for unexpected chinese editions (hahahaha).

now that one SE box can hold 6 watches and i've got additional trays, it's gonna be fun putting them PAMs altogether.

ocwatching · 11 April 2011, 03:09 PM

Nice ones Lee! Great SEs!

leeye · 11 April 2011, 03:25 PM

Thanks Phil, it's been a long time waiting and not knowing if I was able to get it at all.

ocwatching · 12 April 2011, 01:04 AM

It's interesting that on the Boutique RAD, PAM didn't go with the gold hands.
Nice piece! I like that dial on a Rad!

could it be white gold or platinum on those hands?

sea-dweller · 15 April 2011, 02:05 AM

Congrats!

VetteBandit · 15 April 2011, 06:53 AM

Great piece - silly question, does the 420 (or all luminor marina editions) use the 1950 case....i thought no, but some pictures make it look like it does? I know some like the 406 clearly do.

Thanks,
Josh

Rebel · 15 April 2011, 07:23 AM

Very nice.

Fearsome Puppy · 15 April 2011, 11:16 AM

The 420 does not use the 1950 case...

Josh, I think you are referring to the various 10 day PR model which comes in the 1950 case. The PAM 411 - 420 (various different boutique editions with submarine pig on the dial) is luminor encased.

A side by side pic for comparison.

VetteBandit · 15 April 2011, 12:23 PM

That answers it - thanks gang. It was hard to tell (for me) if the pig dials had the 1950 case. I knew the 10day PR models did. Im expecting the 416 later this month and wanted to make sure I knew what I was getting!
