Vintage Panerai 6154


The Claw

Yes, I built another 6154. I don't know how many of these watches I built but no matter what each time I found it a pleasure for the eye and the soul.

It started as a fairly simple 6154 but I often mention each build has its own life, and this one was not different. I think of it as "the claw".

I did not mean to crack the crystal, it was totally random.
For some reason I thought placing the built case including plexi in the ultrasonic cleaner with some alcohol I use for cleaning purposes was a good idea. Turned out it was, but for a different reason than I thought :)

Luckily, for the rest it all went smooth more or less. Bigwaved provided a nice dial, Athaya nice hands, Dellone a good Molnija with Rolex bridges, Orloff a great strap and voilà: another nice HF build!

Kilo!!! You’re a junkie! A totally addicted, but Master Jedi vintage builder. Love it, mate. When can I borrow it?? Hahahaha. Hey, so how come you did not use the DSN vintage movement in this one? Just curious. Happy Easter!
