Greetings everyone,
Let me first say thank you to a few kind members who have been generous with their time and knowledge those far.

Over the last year I have been gathering parts that I want to use on two PAM projects that I hope to complete in the next six months. (my wife gave in) The above members have weighed in on this already so I am looking for some help from others to help me decide what to build next.
1) My only PAM at the moment is my beloved 219 destro on its way out for some final modifications; I hope.
2) My goal is to end up with three Panerai models: the 219, a base model with PVD or DLC and the third, a SS model with base dial and brushed crown guard. I would love to use one of Simon's dials in one of these projects.
3) along with two fabulous Tourby movements, these are the parts I have on hand:
Jimmy case
V 1:1 crown guard
Full Alpha case
t-60 ss crown
Genuine crown; thanks to kruzer
Davidsen crystal
000 dial and case back
May I ask for suggestions on what you would build and the best possible recipe of parts.
Thank you, vlydog.
