Little Red and Blue today

It's a crap shoot on vintage. I bought brand new gen 580's for my 1675 and because of the wear/polish on the lugs they do not fit as good as a pair of old beat up 501's. The old 55's on an old Swiss jubilee fit the best on that particular case. So so fit with new 580 Better fit with old 55's Once MY restored my 7206 it fits my 5513 perfect, but that case is still pretty thick for a 50 year old watch. With modded cases it can even be more difficult and takes some sanding and bending to get a good fit. MBW case and Bracelet after some work

Daytona today

Another excellent build. Great work!

Beautiful build! Definitely one of my favorite Panerai dials.

Changed up to vintage and enjoying this wonderful Liga Privada T52. A great smoke!

Great looking watch Chris. Cool story and a real show of patience on your part. Congratulations on completing this project. I used a gen T21 dome on my 6263 but it was an old DW case set. Fit perfectly on that set up.

Gilt for Labor Day. Also working on some ribs!

Still on the road with the Daytona

Happy birthday [emoji322][emoji320][emoji322]

Thanks Brother. Yes picked this up from David last weekend.

Daytona again today.

Great post. Like seeing how folks go about doing their builds. It is coming along nicely. Look forward to seeing the finished product. You will fit in great here. Lots of vintage builders here. Good luck!

A new to me Daytona!

Great post Thomas. Your attention to detail is commendable. Watches look great.
