Hi Guys,

I was able to see first hand a gen. movement up close and discovered that the Panerai gear train is pearlized, I have been playing with this for some time now and I think I have perfected it. I will be adding this to my builds from now on, please tell me what you think.

Here are some pictures (please bear in mind the lighting is different on every picture, I will be taking some better picture when the builds are done)

Here is the movement 90% compleste

Yup, looks really good. I've noticed this issue before, the gears were just off on the Asian noob. I just purchased, and am awaiting a PAM 111 N noob. Would you consider doing this to my movement for me, for a price of course?

Cheers

<_< can't really see what you mean. Sorry. Are you talking about the perlage on the base plate between the wheel bridges? Don't all noob movements have this straight from the factory? Mine at least does.

Edit. I now see what you mean. The brushing on the wheel isn't really called 'perlage' . Anyway it's really cool how you are into the details. Nice mod!

Nice work!

Wondering also if you did the incabloc.

And where did you get the winding wheels?

Will you perform these mods to our watches for a fee?

I think a nice package would be winding wheels, pearlage and incabloc.

:)
