hiker01 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 When Sly ordered Panerai to build him a white dialed PAM......Panerai was much oblidge..... Here's the first prototype: He didn't like it and sent it back! I love this version! .....this is what Sly settled for: It's ok, but not so great IMHO...... He should order this, too......and call it PAM207B on PVD Case: My Prototype on a PAM359 Strap: I like it, but I think the Sec hand should really match the rest of the Hands and the strap stitching! So back to the bench....... and here's the final PAM207B in PVD Case, with matching hands: The Purists would probably pull their hair off......but I love it! Thanks for looking!

PeteM Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 As for my hair.... well I aint got none to worry about.... Mate.... I still remember that toasting you did.... which I loved.... But this is lovely .... it really reminds me of those early OP prototypes you see now and again but never went into production... I really like the strap combo stitching really pulls out the hands... and the choice of hands really lifts the dial.... overall I really like it.... another great idea realised... I would have no problem wearing it... though I must admit I would want to take the shine off the PVD finish.... Great work F and thanks for sharing... you have done it to me again mate.....

Jkay Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 That red strap combo is hot and I don't even like this watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StormTooper4 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 I should kick myself for letting the blue go, but wanting it was much more a pleasing experience than I found owning it. So I'm glad its in good hands with its brothers. Love your 207B PVD idea much better. A great historic collection indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MADRED7 Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 mmmmh....I like the 1st proto that OP did but I cannot warm for your black/white version.....maybe a pencil lead grey would suit it much better....the contrast of shiny black and white is to heavy me thinks. Just my 0.02$ Theo P.S.: But I love your avatar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiker01 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 Thanks all for your .02 cents. And Storm, I still love it! I agree with PeteM and Theo......I have to get a bead blasted or DLC'ed case for this........anyone have one laying around your parts bin? Give me a holler!

dluddy Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 With a real PVD case that would look killer F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
