z3k0 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Received 390 this Thursday from Josh ... I guess all about this watch is already said, in one word - amazing. But, gold hands and brown dial just ask for titanium case ... so, I got some spare time this weekend, and decided to pop 390 guts into 177M case. Result was very nice, as expected. I can't say I prefer Ti to SS or other way around - each is fabulous in its own way. Enough talking, I'll let the pictures speak ... enjoy regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubiquitous Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Dig it with the Ti; it has a very PAM55 look to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star69 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 Wow ! thats the best combo i have seen ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfovco Posted February 12, 2012 Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 That looks totally amazing. Makes me think how awesome 390 would look inside the PVD case!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z3k0 Posted February 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Who knows, maybe Panerai makes some special edition like this in next few years wow that is a nice combination! a little change from all the 390s we've been seeing lately. fantastic shots too, what photography setup are you using? Quite basic setup - home made light-box (three pieces of milk-white plexi, some white paper and cardboard), two 100W halogen bulbs, cheap tripod, 7 year old Canon 350D body, Zeiss Makro-Planar T* 2/100 lens (actually most expensive piece in whole setup). regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Very nice combo. Great idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Now that is a superb combination!! Well done!! And +1 on the pics!!! They are outstanding! Did you do any post processing on them or is that straight out of the camera?Also which strap is that? Did you get that one with the 390?

projectologist Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Dig it with the Ti; it has a very PAM55 look to it! Totally agree! I couldn't think of which model that was. Also the feel of the 351 with it's Ti case, brown dial and gold hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Very tidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lfovco Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) ... and then charge some insane LE price for it. Better then that, you can actually ask dealers to have the factory assemble a custom rep like that for you. I would totally wear that a lot. Of course you can do it yourself so awesomely, but for those who cannot it is an interesting option.

lfovco Posted February 15, 2012 Report Share Posted February 15, 2012 I keep coming back to look at the pictures and I just cannot stop thinking of a custom 390 in PVD case.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you do any post processing on them or is that straight out of the camera? Also which strap is that? Did you get that one with the 390? Strap is rep Assolutamente, I got it from Angus. It comes with PAM 386 rep, but for a while few dealers were able to source it separately. As for pictures, I did some post processing, but nothing special, small increase in saturation and very light unsharp mask, resize and border, all in PS ... around 30 secs per pic . regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
