Guest HaloArchive Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 So, I was browsing TZ when all of the sudden, I came up upon this post with lovely watch shown: And, those two pictures of a Radiomir (Angelus?) with a CG and Submersible look, took my breath away. Is a rep possible? Where would I start?! Thanks!, H
Watchmeister Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 That is the Egiziano Panerai made for the Egyptian Navy. It is is 60mm and sports an Angelus movement. Here is a reference article: http://www.paneristi.com/archives/egiziano/index.html Given the movement and the size I wouldn't hold my breath for a decent rep. If you check out the article you will see a good example of the movement finish selected for the contemporary 203. At least one of the vintage folks has made a "Little Egizano" which would at least be wearable.
Guest HaloArchive Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 So, im guessing that the 60mm and 75mm (L to L) is larger than any PAM case being replicated and, either: 1. You need to know how to use a lathe well 2. You need serious change 3. You need a custom dial 4. You need etc.. Makes this model very hard to replicate. Hmm well, I wonder if anyone else on here or RWI is interested in contacting a dealer to make it happen. H
rmcsherry Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Lets just wait and see what DSN comes up with over the next few months
dadog13 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Lets just wait and see what DSN comes up with over the next few months I even heard that it could be ready in a month! hopefully it will be good enough to convert it to an Angelus powered one...I have a mvt waiting for that one!
VDBroucke Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 i have first pics see from dsn prototype... nice!!! a good start for the monster
Merlin Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 if you like the style there's a wearable (47mm) hommage to this watch http://retrospectwatch.com/1954.html
dadog13 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 i have first pics see from dsn prototype... nice!!! a good start for the monster if the case will be able to host the Angelus mvt we will need the help from R once again to make a custom dial for this one...
Guest HaloArchive Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 I know the have the Large one and, they have a smaller one. I am hoping then that they replicate the large one. It would be something different to add to a collection. Even bigger than a 127
Clint Eastwood Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 if the case will be able to host the Angelus mvt we will need the help from R once again to make a custom dial for this one... I will also buy one when the DSN will be ready, but i think i will mod it with the unitas; i don't want to put a angelus on a watch i will probably never wear; but maybe... I search but don't find it, a wrist shot of this monster, it look very big; some of you maybe have this pic ? i usualy wear a 6152 who is the good size for me because i have enough luck that it don't see too big on my wrist But a 60mm ?
dadog13 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 G! your wish is my command.... I remember that there was a pic somewhere of the wristshot of the Egiziano worn by Ralph Lauren (he is/was one of the lucky owners) but I cannot find it now...then maybe it could be one of the pics I posted...
Watchmeister Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 You can always save up your pennies and pick-up the 2009 Pam 341. Seems like a contemporary and wearable (albeit unaffordable) homage.
jibuti Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Oh, V., you even found a pic of one for Israel army!
dadog13 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Posted January 20, 2009 Oh, V., you even found a pic of one for Israel army! I look on daily basis through the various forums searching for photos of vintage PAM's... Here is a nice pic :
