dadog13 Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 nice pam...i love the last pic you posted...wear it well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobs1971 Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Very, very nice pics! I think I'm going to mod mine as well. At first I didn't notice the slightly off position of the 'L SWISS MADE L'. But since I know, I see it everytime. Yours look very nice! Cheers!

jonthebhoy Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 The main flaw is that you have it and I don't. JTB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fotoman Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Swiss Made too close to the 6 - or it could be just the way its sitting in the case, it should be halfway between 6 and case. i don't think i have seen that dial before, is it a new davidson or something? its a great watch Beut strap - i love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Well you asked for it Dial: 1) Colour of PANERAI and LUMINOR MARINA is white instead of salmon 2) A on MARINA is wrong 3) L SWISS is too big 4) Numbers 2 & 6 are wrong (2 is like a different font) Crown guard completely wrong for an H model Pin is not flush with the cg Screws on the case on their end should come all the way to the end without leaving a gap And all those without even looking at the movement..

lovepanerai Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 V said it all - still very very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris5264 Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 The caseback is nice and thick, overall one of the better 111s I've seen, as others pointed out, the dial is a little off but still very nice. This has to be Davidsens' latest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Oh, and the black color of the dial is at about 315 K wile it was supposed to be 309 K. (Maybe it's the lamp light, though). .... Don't mind about those supposed 'flaws', they are so negligible that even a ViaPaneristi would not notice them. Just some eagle-eye PAM crazies like phoband and V could find them. .... And even if your watch were a sh*t, that strap is stunning! Did you Promarker the stitch? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir-Lancelot Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 NIce Watch. That last picture is great ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 OK....It is really an ugly watch. Just kidding, it looks awesome and no one is ever going to notice anything wrong with it (except maybe you) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evildee Posted January 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Thanks guys! I know some of the flaws on this watch but not all of them... And now I know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigSlickAK Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Great lookng 111H! I know a lot of Paneristi have talked about the "L SWISS MADE L" being too close to the 6 - Mainly on the 177H reps. And not evenly spaced out as the Gen reps. Solution Davidsen dials. But has anyone gone to the Boutiques/AD's and checked out the various models that should have this even spacing on Sandwich dials? I have been to the various Tourneau's in NYC and in Las Vegas (Bellagio and Ceasar's Palace-Torneau). I will confirm that SOME Panny models have this identifying mark!?! I even have a TOURNEAU catalogue from the store that shows this is NOT necessarily an issue for "screaming out Replica"! Weird tidbit. But nevertheless, it does bug me about my 177H and I hope to upgrade like your 111H and Phoband's upgraded piece! Cheers guys! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjeffers58 Posted January 12, 2007 Report Share Posted January 12, 2007 Oh no, there is so many flaws I don't know where to begin... I really think you should send it to me for closer examination, no really... I'll even pay the postage. I should be able to get it back in a few short years with full mods. That's a really nice pam by the way, enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
explor_er Posted January 13, 2007 Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 Great looking PAM! The brightness of the lume is excellent! Is this a Davidsen? or did you get all the mods separately? I'm trying to decide between getting a Davidsen or doing the mods to my older asian 111H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm trying to decide between getting a Davidsen or doing the mods to my older asian 111H. It's a reg REP dial that I superlumed. Davidsen's outter slice of the sandwich is not that thick. The hands are Davidsen. I prefer the REP hands though cuz it's more black. I need do some practicing luming hands. I will probably buy some hands from ofrei and some finger nail polish to practice on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evildee Posted January 13, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2007 1) Colour of PANERAI and LUMINOR MARINA is white instead of salmon Did you mean salmon instead of white? I just modded the dial on the left. How does this look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archibald Posted January 14, 2007 Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 Did you mean salmon instead of white? I just modded the dial on the left. How does this look? Looks nice....but a lot of trouble to go through until they fix the "A's" . When they do fix them (as on davidsens 055 and 082) that'll be a great mod. How'd you change the color?

evildee Posted January 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2007 How'd you change the color? It was simple. I put the dial in a small container then blew a puff of cigarette some in there and sealed it for an hour. I think it's good enough and it looks off white.
