surpur Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Can this Unitas movement from this watch be used with a Panerai dial and case or does it need modification: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130334764611&ssPageName=STRK:MEUSX:IT Also was Unitas used in early Panerai watches or was it the Rolex version? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neuuubeh Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Cortebert ebauches "touched" by Rolex were used in the first Panerai watches. Then Angelus and Cortebert. Unitas was only used in more recent times, with the bridge mod'ed by Panerai to mimic the said early Cortebert-Rolex movements. The finish (if one can use the term) on the one in that auction is hideous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RWG Technical Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 You are paying about 8 times as much as the real value of that movement. Don't waste your money on it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
