My Modded 111-H On New Mario Paci Allora a Ora in Senape

[fishgodeep]

I'm not too sure about this PAM......a lot of time and effort has gone in the right places but I think the only way to get a good H series PAM is buy a genuine.

Still - it's one of the better 111-H reps I have seen personally and keeps superb time- the movement is one of those "Swinese" ETA stamped base jobbies

and I think it started life in a 113 from Davidsen.....not erratic like some of the others I have had.

List of mods I've done

- Dial re-painted matte finish and lumed - C3/C1 - lume colour is OK but not 100% IMHO

- Custom lume hands from Flav Flav

- H2 Cannon Pinion and hour wheel - really needs H3 as dial is quite thick

- True Sapphire with AR - Davidsen

- 2.0mm DSN Spring Loaded Crown - modded CG to fit correctly between case / CG

- CG Pin tapped and filed as flush as possible - depends on the angle of viewing -

- CG deeper re-brush - 3 stage - ver light sandpaper , steel brush , re-finishig pad

Fitted to a new MP Allora a Ora in Senape - comes with a sort of sandblasted + polished buckle which is a nice improvent on normal MP buckles for me.

I like this strap - think it will age nicely.

Thanks and enjoy

PS : Sorry for the dust ....it is the bane of my watch hobby.......all on the crystal not inside.

Nice effort altogether, especially with DSN crown fitting, it ain't exactly an easy job to fit it on a standard rep case, but once you get over the crown tube hurdle and lever tip adjustment - it's all worth the effort. BTW, that MP strap rocks !

Looks like you swapped the minute hand in all the hury and excitement with the one from your Rad 183 ...and your Rad ended up with a Luminor hand

Thanks for the comments everyone.....@ Babola.....Doh!!!....quick sense check on my others and the mistake smacks you in the face!!!

Flav even sorted them into correct pairs....just to make it easier for me to mess up!

Glad it's an easy fix and thanks for spotting.!!

Nice mods to a watch that as you said it has so many differences from the Gen it seems in vain to try and mod it.

The strap is great and shows one more time that strap sellers must get either a decent camera or a good photographer to accurately present their straps. This strap in their photos seems more boring than in your photos.
