I think they forgot to engrave a couple bridges....

Awesome build! Looks really good...the gen crown is a nice touch!

Yup...sounds like you overwound it.

Strap on 61c?

That is a SanDave special tanning croc. It's been out of production for a year or 2 now.

Excellent PAM collection and beautiful photos to top it all.

Would you mind sharing where to get a PAM024L like yours? It looks amazing!

Yep...you can buy the 24L from OP as it's gen.

nice collection...is the CG on the 176L modded?

Nope....not modded. It's a gen OEM CG.

And here's 3 more to add to the list.

I know for a fact Sam that the only tools you have are a hammer and a chisel...

LOL!! True...but I still take the movement apart carefully before going at it with the hammer and chisel.

Very nice watch

ps) If you like to keep it, maybe time for servicing:

Thanks...but i've been modding for a long time bud. And I always remove the seconds wheel entirely before shortening it.....I would never cut it while it's still on the movement. The Zigmeister failed to mention that it can ruin the jewel on the bridge as well as on the main plate.

I threw my 2A on a custom order Gunny Caitlin II and I cannot get it off my wrist! Never thought I'd be so drawn to a base. Also a couple pics I took on a 1st gen Dirk.

Love this one!!

Holy crap!

^^^ After I posted I took another look at the pics and noticed a few things about the dial

.....No low bar A, flatter lume, slightly thinner indicies (compared to old school rep dials), and refined print.

Gen dial for sure mate!! Congrats Petey!!

That looks fantastic! Love the caseback, love the CG....the strap...love everything about it!!

Nice old school dial Pete! I see you got Jakobs caseback along with it. Looks fantastic! Congrats!

Great collection and photography! I have two questions:

# where / how did you get PAM 005K DLC coated?

# the origin of Panerai / logo DLC buckle?

Would love to add both to my little stache of PAMs.

Thanks a million.

Oh...I keep forgetting about this thread...

1. I had it sent to Avitt for DLC coating.

2. That's a custom Simona tan....not sure of the origin of the buckle though.

I also have a couple more to add:

03B:

040:

187G:

The crowd ain't what it used ta be. lol

I love the caseback.

I wanna see the strap notches!

Oh...and can you take a side profile of the CG? I'm guessing it's a destro CG from the size of the pin on the underside.

Looks good! Who's your dealer?

That is friggin beautiful!!

I want one too!! Please let us know where to put our names down!

AWESOME!!! BTW, check your profile message I left, couldn't PM you!

Cleared up some PMs. Feel free to send me a msg now.

the bezel pearl is just a piece of "dirty plastic", pull it out and make the lume job with an instant "coffee mix" and C1 Lume!

Well....great job on the relume if you did it yourself. It's the perfect shape, size and color! Well done!

Haven't posted an update to this thread in a while....I've had quite a few additions since.

I modded the 113J and 26k further and added #15 - 20.
