UncleJay Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) So here I am, looking through some old parts/strap boxes I found and WOW, look what I found. I remember buying this from Simona at Panerai Boutique in Florence. I must have put it away and forgotten about it. Green croco original Pre-V. I believe only 50 or so of these were produced....what a rare find. Enjoy the pics. Edited March 22, 2008 by UncleJay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepshow Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Holy crap, J! That is simply TOO cool for school! Very nice! How on earth did you ever "forget" you had that bad-boy around? You ever gonna wear it? I'm trying to match that up with a watch..... It would look great on a 003/113 or a 010/114. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slai Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Doesn't matter what watch you put it on. The important thing is to match it to green leather pants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleJay Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I thought it went with a watch I sold a few years ago, and yes ....... it goes GREAT with a white dial. BTW, I also found a PAM0010 A series T dial in the same box. Ummmmmmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Priceless strap. But what were you thinking when you bought it? We look forward to pics of it on whatever watch you choose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Jay- On that 10A dial - if you don't sell it you should convert it into a franken. After all, you are on a rep forum. Here is my 03 T dial with gen crown and Jimmy everything else. And with only 5-6 pieces in existence, rarer than the gen. And I am definitely losing it. That green croc strap is looking better and better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleJay Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) What, this dial? I actually remembered the dial and found the strap looking for it. I had thought of selling the dial to fund a large Rep Pam buy .... but I'm not sure now. Edited March 22, 2008 by UncleJay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Apologies to the members who have already PM'ed Jay for the dial. But we do have to start him off right. I think he is the first member who we have had to lead down the watch food chain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleJay Posted March 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 First, I wouldn't say DOWN the chain. I judge collecting by the "Community" and this one is tops in my book. I have to say I'm impressed by the the contributors as well as the Mods. Thanks to all for all the help and I can only hope to someday contribute as well.

peepshow Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 You're selling yourself far too short, Jay. You've already contributed here and at RWI in your short time 'roung these parts. Yes, you should franken that dial if you keep it! That is, unless you've got a spare movement and Luminor case sitting in a box somewhere, too.

old skool Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 I am not up to speed on pricing and all, but couldn't you sell that green strap and go within jumping distance of a gen Pam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V Posted March 22, 2008 Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 Very nice 'collectable' strap you have there Jay.. too bad it is DAMN ugly and non-wearable I am glad Panerai decided to not produce those straps : Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 V - Very nice collection of straps. It's not mine.. If it was it would have been sold and got another nice gen Pam instead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
