Eric is a very nice guy.

Yes You are right. Reps are better now. I began in 2002/2003 in a German Forum. Maria (mbw) was in this. There i was called zett. There have been very very good reps. But often you had to do some Mods. some Mods i did. by myself to get them better. (E.g. Rolex Crown guard mod, new tubes new crowns, cyclops etc.... But now i like the out of the box watches especially panerai. Yes, the 390 is realy close. Send a Shot if you got it. My next One will be the 356. Not as Perfect as the 390 but I like it very much. Greetings Koko

Thx, indeed. The strap makes the difference. There is a Sinn strap at my Speedy. After getting the new strap for my pam, i dont like it anymore. I will also Order a strap from Eric for it. Greetings koko

Hi panerai,153, Thx, The shots could be better. . I changed into originals but always read the threads in the Forum. After the black bay was out I couldnt resist. Regretting giving away my beloved 111 sausage dial unitas, I also ordered the pam 005 which is now my daily beater. My next will be the noob 111 and noob 243. In my opinion these are the most accurate watches OTB. Greetings Koko

After 8 Years without a rep i got a noob Beauty. Thx to Eric for the nice individual strap. Greetings Koko

The best choice is the 111. My first rep after 6 years is this little fellow.

Got mine yesterday . I did the floss silk mod. The bracelett took a little bath in a dish detergent oil bath and i deflashed some sharp edges. Overall a stunning peace. I bought my last rep in 2005 by maria (Mbw 1665) and i have to say. Nice work. The minor flaws are very acceptable. Pictures will follow tomorrow. Besides this one angus sent me a pam noob 005 v2. I am very content. koko

Take a hot glue gun put the hot glue on a round block of wood (the one my children play with are perfect) press the block on the casde back let it dry and you can open the watch withaut scratches. The wooden block ist easy to remove after closing the watch. Regards Markus Former known as zett in a german forum (I miss you guys).

You will definitly see the difference between original bezel insert and the mbw bezel insert. some pics of my fully moded 1665.
