markmelheim Posted February 12, 2014 Report Posted February 12, 2014 I sent a really nice case set out to DLC - Still waiting the return. Hope it get here & looks as good as the pics. Very expensive process. The Lume was completed by Kent Parks on the dial & hands, I have a new 2893-2 mvmt and all the H5 parts needed, hard part was finding the close to perfect date wheel, happened upon a 2892-1 black date and really nice crisp heavy font I've decided to go with a open back to show off the 2893-2 and make this unit unique
StormTooper4 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Posted February 13, 2014 Great concept and look forward to seeing the complete build.
markmelheim Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Posted February 13, 2014 Well I received some part today from bulgari, I hoped the case would have been blacker, But this is what I received,
Cats Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 Will be a killer watch when all assembled i like the relume job a lot. If i am not mistaken the lume is less green and has a creamy yellow color now. Cant wait to see it all finished. Wear it in good health Cats Verzonden vanaf mijn iPad met behulp van Tapatalk Pro
markmelheim Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Posted February 14, 2014 yes compared to another dial I have, it does have a little more of that yelllow cast to it, Not so green, Thanks for the kinds words guys, Never thought I'd fall for a Rep like this..... Insane to pump better than a grand into it already,, Wish I had a better crystal and Gen hands and a Gen Rotor. Well the search continues..........
astonjenks Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 My PAM 29 with Swiss 2893-2 is one of my all time favourites especially when wearing an OEM strap, the black case is an unusual take on it and looks really great, enjoy her. Regards AJ
martijnp Posted February 14, 2014 Report Posted February 14, 2014 I really like it! Love the PAM029 and I really like black watches so this is a great combo! Love to see the result
mt666tm Posted February 19, 2014 Report Posted February 19, 2014 Looking good. Open case back will be a very nice touch!
StormTooper4 Posted February 21, 2014 Report Posted February 21, 2014 Are you going to paint the bezel numerals
markmelheim Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Posted February 22, 2014 Are you going to paint the bezel numerals I'd thought about masking off the area around the numbers and lazer etch them, still nice and crisp.
markmelheim Posted February 27, 2014 Author Report Posted February 27, 2014 Still looking for that elusive 2893-2 Panerai Rotor........................
markmelheim Posted March 16, 2014 Author Report Posted March 16, 2014 another week or 2, and it'll be ready to show off..........
markmelheim Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Posted September 9, 2014 Finally finished - pictures shortly !!!
