Question on the "Wiggle" Test.
A friend and I are jonesing and shopping for the Rolex Exp II "M" series w/ black dial and the 3136 movement.I understand that absolute certainty re: the movement may not be made without opening the case, but that the "wiggle" test is pretty good. Here's my question:Would it be true to say that the 3135 might pass the "wiggle" test, but usually wont, whereas the 3136 will always pass the test? If so, that makes the test a bit less reliable than if the 3135 would always fail the test.Also, I gather that the "M" serial number is not definitive either. Worst case scenario...An "M" series specimen that has the odd 3135 in it that passes the test. My head hurts!

Misc PAM88 pics...
I've had 3 88's in my life, here are a few pics....OEM Honey strap.OEM Honey Strap.Europelli "baseball glove"Dial CloseupOEM RubberThe next three shots represent the culmination of my strap addiction.I owned and wore out a pair of Doc Martens boots for 15-16 years. I decided I needed to have them with me forever and what a better way to do that then to have straps made for my Panerai. I sent the Boots to "The Master" Greg Stevens in CA and he made 3 straps for me out of my boots. Black stitch, Brown stitch, and white stitch...Fantastic!!!!Thanks for looking!!!

Savoy
Savoy is a new company that creates timepieces. Their website and more information is searchable online, since posting a direct link to their website would violate WTF rules about linking to non-sponsor sites (when those websites sell directly to the public)...When my wife and I were on a cruise last year for our Anniversary, she bought me a Savoy watch (WM1.11B2R1.21.RB.TB). It is VERY nice watch. Very heavy, but I love it. The band has a cool latch. They also have these cool interchangeable side pieces. You can actually change the look of the watch without changing the band. Here are some pics:
