wimpie007 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 Anyone seen this one yet ;-) Thought i share it with you. Massive! can also be used as a desk clock Case diameter: without crown 60 mm Source: http://www.jacksontse.com/mm150.html
Drulee Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 Oh wow, Jackson has made an homage of the new Big E rep. I'd never wear one, unless it was attached to a big chain around my neck of course, but it would make a good wall clock or night table clock
Samurai Posted October 2, 2009 Report Posted October 2, 2009 This is the Big Egi....DSN came out with a 52mm version a few months back and now the cartel version is here in 60mm (which is the correct size). Look for a thread on the Big E here..... You need a firearms license to buy one of these things.....as it can be used to clobber someone blue n black It also comes with a disclaimer that Panerai is not responsible for any muscle or tissue damage this may cause
hambone Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 Yet another variation. This one has 27mm lugs rather than the 24. Interesting how fast and how varied these behemoth watches are being made.
Drulee Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 The genuine was made, by Panerai, for the Egyptian navy's divers. From its size I'd say it was made to be wearable with the deep sea diving suits (the ones with the metal helmets). That's the only reason I could see for it being so large - definitely not something for everyday, bear arm, use
FxrAndy Posted October 4, 2009 Report Posted October 4, 2009 But as a desk clock it would be good, any one know the price?
Samurai Posted October 4, 2009 Report Posted October 4, 2009 These are up @ almost all dealer sites. Going in the $170-180 range.
hambone Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Wow! A huge one. Nice Egiziano! Thats what she said. As I recall though, she had a different name for it
Samurai Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Thats what she said. As I recall though, she had a different name for it
siesta181 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 If they come with a base to mount the watch to act as a table clock, i'd grab one. Me thinks they did it for the B&R watches.
<OFFICINEPANERAI> Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Is this the same size as the one that Josh is currently selling? His says 60mm, but not sure if thats with or without the crown
lanikai Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 regardless.. of the crown.. it is a big ass watch... I have one inbounds.. I think it'll be toooooo big to wear though... AC Lani
<OFFICINEPANERAI> Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Right, I am hoping that the PC version, is the more GEN size, which is the bigger of the dials. So can anyone confirm that Josh's is the larger of the Egizianos?
lanikai Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 I can't comment on the size until mine arrives..it's from Josh.. L
<OFFICINEPANERAI> Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Mine should arrive before thursday, if you happen to get yours first, please post up and let me know
lanikai Posted October 24, 2009 Report Posted October 24, 2009 Mine should arrive before thursday, if you happen to get yours first, please post up and let me know update.. it was released from customs this afternoon.. but with the cut backs in unit hours here and tomorrow is the weekend.. I doubt I'll get it before Monday.. it is a possibility though.. I'll post pics and size as soon as it arrives.. AC Lani
<OFFICINEPANERAI> Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks lani, Can you take a wristi or 2 as well? Maybe some comparisons to other pams 44mm or 47mm?
lanikai Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 Thanks lani, Can you take a wristi or 2 as well? Maybe some comparisons to other pams 44mm or 47mm? It actually arrived in Hawaii at my mail service today.. after I got home I got a call... didn't want to get back on the road .. so first thing Monday.. I'll do pics with different size Pams... don't know if I wanna put it on my wrist.. may give me a complex... My Omega 57mm Railmaster overhangs my wrist.. I could imagine what this will do.. AC Lani
Corp. Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 Here's a wristshot of mine (from Jackson --> 60 mm): It's just to show that it is absolutely unwearable.... But it is as expected: heavy, good quality an funny! I will use it as a desk clock.
mbjoer Posted October 25, 2009 Report Posted October 25, 2009 How about using it as a belt buckle??????? :D :D Shame about the size though. If it was half the size it would look really good.
<OFFICINEPANERAI> Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 Great Lani, I cant wait! Corp, any other pics by chance possibly beside a 44 and 47mm pam? As for your statement of unwearable...I beg to differ, I feel it looks decent on your wrist, and I will wear mine weekle with a nice worn strap!
sssurfer Posted October 26, 2009 Report Posted October 26, 2009 I just got mine a few days ago: Sorry, no wristshot -- just two hours after it arrived I had it disassembled already. A good starting point for a vintage Egiziano project. A gen for comparison: (BTW, the latter pic is exactly the one that got me hooked to the rep world and forums. At that time I knew absolutely nothing about PAMs, but I casually found it on a book and it made me google for Panerai...)
mastergod Posted October 27, 2009 Report Posted October 27, 2009 Hi sssurfer, good luck with your project! Hope to see pics when its done! MG
