ajoesmith Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 I got this Panerai 183 done the same time the B&R PVD run was being done. What do you think? I think it looks great! Here a few quick pics
babola Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Frickin' nice, mate! Hey, we should catch up some time, I'm only across the ditch from you, LOL! cheers, babola
hambone Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Looks fantastic Joe. Love the PVD/Ceramic on the Radiomir. Enjoy your new watch.
ajoesmith Posted January 31, 2008 Author Report Posted January 31, 2008 Thanks guys This one is just the asian movement version and yes i know it has the hand problem due to the canon and hour pinion but if i bought the swiss version and then did the PVD it would just be too expensive.
Stephane Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Looking great Joe. What about PVDing a Submariner...would be fun.
Cats Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Realy a nice 183 What do you mean with hand and canon pinion problem ?? Carpe Diem Cats
Sweattdogg Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Now this is really a BLACK Seal... +1 Looks great.
sharpie12070 Posted January 31, 2008 Report Posted January 31, 2008 Looks really good, nice finish of the PVD. Where did you get the PVD done?
mossanti Posted February 1, 2008 Report Posted February 1, 2008 i hsould send my 183 to you soon then..looks good..beenthnking to do something like this for a few years now ... oh crap..still waiting for the right BR for me once u will be able to do the next group thing
old skool Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 Did you hit it with a cape cod cloth or did it come out with that nice matte, grey finish?
ajoesmith Posted February 2, 2008 Author Report Posted February 2, 2008 Did you hit it with a cape cod cloth or did it come out with that nice matte, grey finish? No cape cod, the finish you see is the finish direct from the PVD company, no retouching or brushing or coating. Its nice isnt it.
TeeJay Posted February 2, 2008 Report Posted February 2, 2008 I hereby dub this the Team America watch... As in: "America... F*CK YEAH!!!" That's what I think of that watch. F*CK YEAH!!! I think I'll definitely be ordering a Radiomir and having it PVDd at some point in the future

FWATCH Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 PVD looks great. I like the greyness of the color, nice matte finish, too. Can't wait for the next run of B&R.
TeeJay Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Or you can buy it now as its for sale in the watch trade section - I would, but I'm after a base Radiomir. The one I ordered for my friend's birthday, while not quite what I want for myself, has definitely convinced me to get a Radiomir As for the PVD 183, it still gets a "F*CK YEAH!!!" and a big thumbs up
turboGUATE Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 It looks best on the wrist (last shot). Excellent piece! Cheers.
