projectologist Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 So T's hands arrived last week and I finally got around to luming and installing. They took some getting used to appearance-wise as all that was available before this were the wider hour and blunted minute hands. Those are fine for some earlier versions, but starting in 1956, Panerai started using the MM dial designation for many of their 6152/1's and along with that the minute hands were extended slightly with a more pointed tip and the hour hand was made more narrow. T delivers the goods again Took a couple of pics before re-attaching the bezel/plex... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooky Posted November 29, 2009 Report Share Posted November 29, 2009 Looks awesome, I like the pointy tip of the minute hand. Last Friday I also received these hands from Milesd, still unlumed. Great to see them already on a watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had to do a little broaching to get T's gold hands to fit a Cortebert 616. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they ought to be a straight fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projectologist Posted November 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2009 (edited) Really! I thought they ought to be a straight fit It was VERY close. The movement I have is NOS so there was probably very little wear on the canon pin. Finally put back together... can't stop playing with the new iPhone photo app. Edited November 30, 2009 by projectologist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
