PeteM Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Best to contact Jakob mate ..he makes custom casebacks to order... He is a member on here so PM him But you need to sort out the designations..ie make sure you have correct numbers.. the 209 was never a 5218 and you have already said about the 040..

ogladio Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 the 209 was never a 5218 Actually think you're wrong here mate, at least afaik. I have a 5218-209 cb from Jakob that I can highly recommend! Really old info from UncleJay: "I don't know where the info on these two watches has come from lately, but it's inaccurate. The 209 and 210 are hybrids of the Pre-V and Pre-A watches. The 209 (12 pcs produced) used a Pre-A SS case with a Pre-V 201/A Logo dial while the 210 (2 pieces produced #'s 54 and 55) used a Pre-A PVD case with a 203/A dial. Neither watch used the /A on the case back because Panerai thought it would be confused with the upcoming A series watches. BTW, Pre-Vendome dials had no "T" markings (only exceptions were the Mare Nostrum). Pre-A had T-SWISS-T markings, while A and B series had T SWISS T. The 210 we see now is an orange dialed PVD Base model that was a Prototype, really produced as an attempt with dial colors. Pre-Vendome: Case: Pre-V Hands: Pre-V Movement: Pre-V Strap: Pre-V 5218-209 and 5219-210: Case: Pre-A Hands: Pre-V Movement: Pre-V Strap: Pre-A Pre-A: Case: Pre-A OP6500 Hands: Tritium Movement: OP II Strap: Pre-A" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Yes mate.. You are right ..apologies Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ogladio Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 Darn, you just made my caseback worthless Pete! No, honestly, am very very grateful for this text above - was some time since I learned so much in 5 minutes about Panerai! Sure glad guys like you take time to learn the mortals. Anyone with a photo of a gen 209 cb? Below mine from Jakob: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted November 25, 2013 Report Share Posted November 25, 2013 That is updated mate the number is one of the correct ones from the release range so don't panic mate. I have some pics I will dig out of the gen mate and let you have them. I will have to find them on my external hd first. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
