You owe me one, J-!

Thanks, E-! Your my Idol and inspiration when it comes to Vintage PAMs! I just have to build them myself! Could you PM me the source? I've got one given to me by a friend and I need more! I used that one on my almost finished 3646! Thanks, Pete! I will try your suggestion! Thanks, Eton! Trust me, once you start, you can't go back!

LOL! Priceless thanks to all!!!!! Ya' ol are the best! Cheers F-

Finally finished one of a few Vintage Panerais I always wanted to have, thanks to the Burnz and Donerix for introducing me to these rare beauties. I bought the first one I have from Donerix, which was an amazing 6154, but I did not feel the connection! I have to build these beauties for my self.....so here's the first one! Panerai 2533: These pictures were taken after the Vintagizing process, I think you all know how they look like brand new. The Dial: The Movement.....Molinja: The Crown and Case: and the Finished product: and on the wrist: Thanks for looking!

I feel like Paul Newman this Saturday:

Just starting, Bro.....haven't even finished this one yet! Darn watch projects are getting into the reading time!LOL!

Better late than never: PAM 249Cali! Have a safe TGIF everyone!

Excellent job........, but.......shouldn't the lume be less bright than that??? Any tips on how you installed the strap and the process of soldering the lugs? I would really appreciate that! Thank you......and well done! Hike

And I thought I was busy....................................... Looking good my friend!

Ooooooops! You're Da Man! Lucky friend!

Honestly???? Give that to your child if you have one...or a nephew....and get yourself a descent rep! If you like that style, PM me and I'll help you find one! You will never find the right hands for that here! The movement is so wrong! Hike

R-! Man.....I can't believe you remember my birthday! Thanks a gazillion! You didn't have to.......you're the man! Well, I'll wear my New Tona6265 with just installed T21 crystal! Have an easy Hump Day everyone! I took the rest of the week off for an early Double Nickle celebration all the way to the big one! Cheers, all!

Good luck with the project my friend!

Hi and welcome to RWG! If you start reading and researching here, you will learn a lot. For that particular watch...search PAM183 or Radiomir, and you'll find out a lot about the watch! I believe the watch that you bought is a copy of a PAM183.......and Man, if it is???? IMHO, It's a bad one! Sorry!!! But we all did what you did, so it's just part of experience and learning process! Soon you'll be an expert! But read and research! Hike

Great Idea Spidey! and....Redw.....it's an honor to be on that list!!! And here's mine: ...in no particular order, but all I owe my Gratitude! Ubiquitous Vlydog raijor victoria - too bad she's not around anymore! Sixx HackR Jmb .....and I'll update as the fog of memory loss is lifted......, but you know who you are!

@deniz.....Thanks, got it from a Watchparts/jewelry store @ the Chicago Jewelry Row in Wabash for $50! Let me know if you want one, I could always use a walk! Cheers!

Haven't started the W.C. for awhile, so here's Tuesday with my one and only Breitling left, BSA on Honey Brown Leather: I am glad nobody bought it when I put it up for sale!

Wearing this again today - Fat Daytona 6265:

I'm pretty sure it should be coming up pretty soon from our resident experts! Great job! Yummy! If you ever get tired of this........................??????? you know who to PM!

Nice reaad there B-! Thanks!

Have you tried Cape codding it? Cape cod should take the copperry color out and make the titanium come out!

Watch out for that buckle, you mite cut uself!

I'm not an expert, but in my research of the 6154, the case are all in SS, like this: I have seen different variations of the dial though: The dial you're using is more of the Panerai 3646. Hope this helps! I'm also in the same quest as you are! donerix is quite humble, but I consider him an expert on the Vintage PAMs! Goodluck with your project!

I'm gonna change gear and hang out with Freddie this Sat & Sun with our Tonas! Sat.: Sun.:

Well done, E-! AS usual, only the best from the Master Vintagizer!
