brucesreps Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Why strip it though? This is very confusing to me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milesd Posted December 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Where do you think gen parts come from? Parts have to come from somewhere. You can't just call up panerai and order a replacement movement. The watch had no box or papers so the price was right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unregistered Posted December 25, 2009 Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 miles you show off...now just get rid of the 040 and send it my way instead, you've got too many lovely PAMs already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milesd Posted December 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 I use a standard canon dslr with a reverse ring. What that does is mount the lens on the camera backwards. Do a search in the camera section, pugwash did a great tutorial on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishgodeep Posted December 26, 2009 Report Share Posted December 26, 2009 the most desirable handwound movement and probably very cost effective way of perfecting a 1:1 fiddy Congratulations and looking forward to seeing the finished results!
