V

One day after and the watch is keeping COSC time.. +8 sec per day wich is AMAZING.. Both my old Asian 7750 are not so good time-keepers and it AMAZES me that the new one keeps so Excellent time.. PLUS.. I tried to remove the numbers to superglue them with a very VERY tough glue. I couldn't remove them even if i tried. Don't know if they are screwed but they are very very hard to take them off without scratching the bezel. So I left it that way.

What can I say? I am one of the few people who LOVES some of the models and can't wait to be available in HighQuality reps to get one

Without ANY DOUBT... the 212 is exactlly what they all said... BY FAR the best Panerai.. Design, comfort, size, contemporary/vintage PLUS if you want tyou can have it with SWISS movement to last for ages... Every Panerai has its special beauty BUT as I said if I had to choose JUST ONE it would be the 212.

indeed... Don't worry that much Chris. For me the rubber strap was rubbing against the skin and took it off. No radioactive activity involved for sure

Blinding

Hey I'm just kidding.. probably it was an old layer of skin that it should fall off (like the snakes)

From wearing too many PAMS... Bigger and heavier... CURE? Put the watch to the other wrist BTW that happened with a couple of hours costantly wearing the 'Anchor 187'

How about some LUME shots ?? This watch looks like youcan see it in the dark only by the lume... SUPERB!!!

... and dangerous for our eyes...

That's so true... but still cannot justify to give that amount of money for it... Although when I got my 22/22 XaMas I was considering to buy a watch just for the strap

Yes.. this is same PVD like the genuine Panerais.. For cost send a PM to Finepics.. His plater is away for holidays so I guess you can have yours in a couple of weeks. Don't know if they are same or different from davids.. I know this is exactlly the same as the genuine. Thanks for your kind words..

It's not a joke... I have seen Beckham at the Portugal game and she was wearing something blinky and I though I have seen a PAM CG... But then again I thought I am seeing Panerai everywhere... THank God I am not crazy...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/12ct-Diamond-encrust...bayphotohosting This is my own personal Diamond encrusted Panerai Luminor, one of I believe, only 6 in the entire World. This watch was purchased by myself for myself from one of the World's most expensive Jewellers who also supplied the same watch to Victoria Beckham (as seen on a recent TV programme at one of the Beckhams parties) and also at England's World Cup match against Portugal. Although I would stress that this is a Gents watch... This stunning 44mm Panerai contains an estimated 12ct of quality Diamonds. The pave set dial is totally encrusted as is the top and sides of the case, with larger diamonds set the entire way around the bezel. This watch has been worn less than a dozen times and is as BRAND NEW. Comes with Red, Ivory, Pastel Blue, Black Rubber and Brown Leather straps. I paid £10,500 (discounted price) for this watch and considered it worth every penny. Outside under sunlight this watch is absolutely full of lustre and fire, the likes of which you won't have seen before! Quite honestly I haven't bothered taking dozens of shots of this stunning watch. The nature of the diamond setting does not lend itself to good photography and its absolutely impossible to capture the sheer beauty of this item. I would strongly suggest that if you are interested, then come along and see it in the flesh. Just make sure that you bring your money with you because I guarantee you'll want to take it home!

Good luck with your search.. When you find the place let me know P.S. A guy here got a PANERAI 091 dead cheap from ebay.. BUT he risked

Got a Logo one and PVD'd it to Finepics.

Thanks a lot for your kind words... THis is a base CN movement Silixprime 112H with sandwich dial. Relumed and PVD'd by Finepics. Strap is custom made Calvin Klein strap by Aaron. Buckle is a rep LOGO one that has also PVD'd by Finepics. The result is very very nice indeed... My idea came from a SAME prototype I have seen in photos from Basil 2006.

Mark has tighten the screws quite hard.. and i don't have the right screwdriver to unscrew them

Wow.. never seen a Poll so close... VOTE VOTE...

UN - BE- LIEVABLE Yesterday my wife has seen the 187 and she was trying to kill me with it because she said it was the ugliest watch I have ever bought... Anyway... Today, she came to pick me up to go to the post office to send some ebay stuff. The moment she has seen the PVD with the black strap she was doing like crazy because she said IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PAM EVER.. and while I was in the queue she was taking the watch from my wrist to wear it.. Guess what.. I came home without a watch and my beloved Darth Vaders watch its in her wrist I can't believe she liked more than ever this watch.. This was supposed to be an Evil men's only watch... Imagine what it will happen when she will see it on the Europelli... Bye bye PVD ANyway.. our music backround is quite dark and her favourite band is The Cure.. so I guess it wasn't such a surprise... P.S. TOday she is wearing a Pink Hard Rock shirt and my watch

I know most of you will prefer the Europelli... and maybe it is better.. BUT this watch it is made to be the Blackest Possible

I have read somewhere else that a number was missing and it was glued? So another point in favourite of KEN's version which has the numbers screwed and not glued..

As Eddy said 0995/1000 for mine

Well what do you fancy? BLACK or TAN..? Different styles and different philosophies I guess ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And here with the Europelli baseball strap...
