old skool

RXW makes this watch.

I am looking to build my own homage watch. I was hoping to pick up a case set, asian movement, etc. and match it with a Davidsen dial. Are there any fitment issues I should be aware of?

I am not up to speed on pricing and all, but couldn't you sell that green strap and go within jumping distance of a gen Pam?

I don't know if you are asking me, but there are a number of options depending on the type of leather and the look you want. Generally it is beeswax and hand burnishing combined with edge dying or edge coating.

Way to go. My first ever strap: My second: It is so rewarding don't you think?

Nice photo...I like the background and the lume.

Nice strap and buckle.

Nice dial. It compliments the Ti case.

I'll take two

I'm not sure I would pay that from StrapCode. I have purchased straps from them in the past and not loved them. SanDave sells a croc strap for less, as does Strap Culture from time to time. Then again there is always HKTan.

The Strap Smith: http://www.thestrapsmith.com/The_StrapSmit...rai_photos.html So is he the one making the buckles or does he just own a couple?

The thickest one I wear is 7mm thick. So, with the two layers on top of each other and the keeper (which is not thined) it adds up to about 23mm thick from the wrist. But I have a couple 3mm thick straps that I wear from time to time as well. I personally prefer around 5mm.

I need to know where I can buy such a buckle.

Nice movement. That plexi is nice also.

Yes.

That's really cool.

Thanks. I like an unusual combo.

I have too many to post, but I will post a couple: non-Panerai:

Who on WUS makes the pig buckle? Here are a few of my Strap Culture buckles:

He sells unbranded watches, so you may want to ask him about sourcing just the dial.

Very informative thread.

It looks great. Congrats on the purchase. It really lends itself to a lot of different strap designs and colors.

Love that strap.

I like it obviously. I can't really tell from the pictures but it is a sausage dial? I wanted a sausage for mine, but the cost to relume was a bit much. I have asked Davidsen for a no brand backfill dial but he doesn't have any.
