hi guys,
do you know how to obtain a deeper black finish on my davidsen pvd case to match the pvd buckle i already have?
may i use car wax? or something else( that will not scratch the pvd finish)?
thanks!
nice watch! congrats!
fun to see i have nearly a same "no name" project.
dial(relumed and aged by The Zigmeister), golden hands, clear caseback from jimmyzfu.
44mm case from river.(from a 005 i bought last year)
6497/1 with cotes de geneve finish.
all of the bits are now at my watchsmith: waiting for eta spare parts...
(this is a no second dial and the movement is a small second at nine one).
gianni agnielli (ceo of fiat and ferrari) was wearing his watch like this.
jean cocteau too.
it's a master of taste. i like this way of wearing if the color of the strap is the same as the color of the garment.
i was (yes was!) a "purist", or "genuine" watches collector before buying my first rep last year (on ebay and from river). now i will never, say never buy a gen panerai. too pricey for a unitas/eta even with modified bridges. i remember very well that ten years ago during a trip to milano, italy the first pams i saw were a lot of money (same price for a no date sub) for an almost "unknow" brand.
the only gen i own today is a speedmaster moonwatch.
i travel to the nurburgring four to five times a year. my time: 9.45 minutes. but i think it's possible to improve that time. i have a too "conservative" driving style. well , i need my car to go back to home (don't want to go to a railwaystation to go back to france).
following is the link to the ring (with a webcam):
