[Gute]

request your advise

Hi,

Request for the contact as well. I am getting a pre-owned PAM. May bee good to let he check for me as well. Tks.

[Democritus]

Ya. Don't think it is possible to even source for a minute hand outside of Richemont. Just compare the box for Pam and Rolex. The Pam box is much more difficult and costly to find than Rolex.

My maid threw my box away some years back and Richemont just refuse to sell one to me even after I have them service 2 pams at close to 1K.
So now almost no way to get back the box and the items in the box .

anyone knows where else could we send our Pams for servicing and change of minute hands plus polishing at a lower rate - need your expertise )

i know the market rate for

-servicing is S$500
-polishing is S$100
-change of minute hands S$80

any lobang for cheaper and relaible services )

Panerai is not like Rolex, where original parts could be sourced easily. Beware of fake/aftermarket components.

I am a Panerai Noob... Can the experts here share with me on the cost for servicing the crystal in case of dinks?

[Paneraii]

Cheap and reliable seldom go together. May need to trade off certain factor.

If the difference is not big, I would rather go to agent. Service invoice from official agent can command few dollars more incase you want to sell your watches later on.

Agreed

i chipped my FM's crystal recently...was told i shld get back my watch in 4 weeks...now 6 weeks liao...just called them and they're regulating my watch..but no complaints cos they cld have just fit the crystal and get it over and done with..instead they bother to check the mechanism also...thumbs up for this!! oh, for those who're interested in knowing teh cost to replace the crystal>> $600+

My Zenith also got prob...so now it's in Switzerland and i won't see it for 12weeks...watch keeps running 15mins fast...after a recent overhaul...according to them, they may change the movement so have to send back to factory...starting to miss it liao...

correct. FM service is top i must says

[seiko.citizen]

a cure: get another watch

[cedric]

Bro... u cannot tahan liao lah...12 weeks away from you.. in a far away land...

[wolfeyes1974]

Bro, seems like the difference not so big... go to richemont lah... furthermore, 12 weeks cannot see and wear your watch.... u how can tahan.... mine also send to richemont for servicing.. yah lah, expensive.. but I feel more "AN XIN"...(i.e. ease at heart)...

hi guys,

normally, when u send ur watch for servicing, they will tell u 4 weeks or 12 weeks, but dun be surprise that u can collect it much much earlier.

take my rolex for example, when i sent it to change the dial and service, they told me 4 weeks but 1 week later, they say the watch is ready for collection.

and recently, my gf cartier got problem as the power reserve is less than 20 hrs but under warranty, when i sent it to king centre, they told me 7 days but 3 days later, it is ready.
