  2. A dial spacer from a 2836 would work modified. A TC movement holder depends on the inner mid-case construction, if its not gen spec it won't fit.

  3. Yes, its possible, its a tight fit though to squeeze it in there, the TC2824 has the DWO too. If you have the parts, experience and materials, you can pretty much fabricate a custom dial washer on a lathe. The TC2824 comes with its own movement holder which aids the DWO placement, and in later TC builds with this movement TC used a paper washer on the leading edge of the movement holder itself. Without this, you can run the risk of the DWO rubbing the underside go the dial.

  4. Greetings to all, I have a date wheel overlay for a raffles submariner dial with dial feet for eta. I see a lot of eta submariners with DWO on 2836, but none on 2824. Since my watch case is made for a 2824 and it would not work with a 2836, could a DWO work on an eta 2824? (The distance from the stem centre opening of the case to the dial mount is 2.2mm which would make it a case for eta 2824) thanks!!

  5. I'm going to go with Toro, im afraid. Get the black leather strap version. As I get a 10% discount if I use Western Union. Then I'll get the box set from AOO, which is $45, only $10 more than a rubber strap, and the strap is included in the box-set. So, effectively getting the box for $10.

  7. The 356 is cheaper anyway (the one you recommended). So I think I'll go with that! Spoke to Perfect clones, and the only one they have in stock is a steel bracelet one. Which is slightly cheaper. But I just don't like a Panerai on steel bracelets.

  8. Thanks for the tip mate. Think I've found it on their site. Not sure if I'm allowed to link to specific ones. But is it the "Pam 356O Noob Daylight"? that you were talking about?

  9. This sounds more interesting than I had imagined and again thanks for your input. Seems to me that you have done something like this before. What modifications would you recommend apart from my guessing to sand this 2836 spacer? This is what I like about forums like this, where people improvise & think outside the square. It is almost like solving a mathematical puzzle. To clarify what my aim is . A couple of years ago, I was was gifted an Alpha submariner which was a great everyday watch and was even great to swim in because it kept dry. During day light saving, I stupidly did not screw down the crown and somehow got water inside corroding the mvt and dial. Even though the watch was inexpensive , the case is still good and I have a spare eta submariner dial and DWO, but case will only accept 2824 otherwise an eta 2836 would have solved the situation

  10. I would recommend the chequebook warrior approach on this and pay the Texan tight wad. JMB will get it done

  11. If there are not holes already, one almost has to have a jig to hold the case and a better than average drill press with zero slop in the shaft. JMB is a machinist by trade and can do it and get it back to you quickly. I have used him several times.

  13. There are no silly questions, but sometimes it helps to learn about a watch before you buy. Type "Panerai daylight" into Google and you will find all about the genuine, which is always a good place to start, then select a reference number or two of models you particularly like and check the TDs websites to see what they sell. Having started looking at the genuine, you will be in a great position to assess how accurate they look. Also once you have a reference number you can search the fora to see what others think of the rep. I could just say buy model X from dealer Y, but honestly you will enjoy the hobby more if you learn and understand things for yourself. Oh and when you get your lovely new watch, post a wristie ?

  18. I've brought 16 watches this year into the U.S. Not legal to sell them. Fine to own them. Customs really doesn't seem to care about a box with a watch or 3 in it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
