Then I'd say go with DSN. For $430 you'll get the best bang for the buck IMO. Swiss movement with swan neck superlumed dial and hands sapphire crystal Tall H3 CP Thick CG....etc.

I love this part of the description! "GUARANTEED Genuine Rolex!"

Wow.... Too bad on the price though.

The last 2 shots are my favorite! Very nice strap choice! Wear it well.

If you can get a gen movement I would recommend you go for a PAM with an open caseback to show off the movement. The 005 are closed caseback only. Maybe a 111, 112, 176, 177? Depends on the movement generation. Just my 2 cents.

It's hard to find an accurate 029 nowadays....the dial and bezel markers aren't the greatest from today's dealers. If you can get a hold of an old school one then I'd say go for a 029....otherwise get an ultimate 063.

Just to clarify.....T doesn't sell PVD crowns with a 0.9mm stem...which is a bloody shame.

Am I the only one that laughed at this comment?!

Amazing....seriously want one in my collection now.

Hmmm...not sure. My buddy had a few dials that I picked up for myself for a few builds. I have 2 variations of the 005 dials in my collection....still debating on which one to sell.

You should get a new CP as well. I wouldn't go with DSN's 005 dial....it has quite a few flaws...logo on it is way to close to "Panerai" and the numerals look like they were filled on a sandwich dial to make it into a sausage dial.

Beautifu pictures. That's a very nice 177h.

Yes....the PAM 056.

Looks fantastic. Is that crown from DSN as well? Doesn't look as bevelled from the pictures I've seen.

Very nice! It's the first time I've seen a 202a that's not a DSN. That looks pretty good! Wear it well!

Well....haven't posted to this thread in a really long time. I've acquired and sold quite a few PAMs within my collection since. Latest ones would be my 112, 115, and 177. Also modded some of the existing ones that were in my collection. It's nice to be able to edit posts again.

The lugs on your watch are too short. And you could try dremelling the bracelet but you'll probably end up wrecking it. I'd say buy a different watch to put the bracelet on.

Easy...order from DSN and leave it in a watch box and never wear it! lol

Hmmmm....you're right. But it does look way better than any 195 dial I've seen. I haven't seen anyone else with this dial? Has anyone seen this one before? I didn't even notice when flipping the pictures back and forth....The only way I was able to tell was having them side by side.

Well....my buddy has a crapload of parts that he was selling and I managed to pick up a few from him. I came across this dial and I thought it looked pretty good....no low bar "A"s, logo size, tilt and spacing looks good, numeral marker font looks good, L SWISS L size and spacing look good as well. I hope this isn't just a standard 005/195 dial because I paid him quite a bit for it. I would love to hear your opinions! My 195 Gen 195

Simply amazing!

Anyone have LH's contact info since RG is down?

Ha....anytime! Making the pin flush was easy....it was tapering for the curved top that was difficult.

Ha....well it's still up for grabs if you want it! You're right....if you know anywhere I can get the perfect dial...say the word! Ok...so it's not complete...I spent some more time on it. Here are the results. Thank you...but not good enough for Tanya. lol Thanks!!!
