fishgodeep Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I know there have been a few excellent examples of these on show recently , most of which have been 9-12 months in the making. Mine has been on the same journeys across the globe but has now finally made it home ...completed!! First - thanks to Rolli for his perfect PVD service - taking this case set - leaching the old PVD coating and re-coating with this sublime finish. Secondly - Lello for the 2892 Datewheel - which is an essential mod as the standard ETA wheel is just too thin. Thirdly - SSSurfer - for the new cyclops - doesn't show up that well in these photos but on the wrist the date just pops out at you Fourth - Davidsen - I asked Ziggy to install a DSN PAM 29 centre seconds hand as the dot it in the correct position - maybe a bit small but am really happy with the finished results Fifth - T - this sports a T-48 PVD crown - superb fit and finish. Thanks T! Last but by no means least - big thanks to Ziggy for doing all the watch smith work and the vintage tritium mix lume work on the dial and hands - I never tire of looking at pictures of his uniquely accurate colour and work! Strapwise - a well worn in MP PAV98 24/22 with rep A series 2 screw PVD buckle! It is without doubt one of my all time favourite watches and is seldom leaving the wrist right now. It's an expensive project to start and finish but it conforms to any ratios of rep:gen with Gen's selling on the collector markets at $20K+ Thanks to all the contributors!

BigCrown Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Wow, that is looking right! Outstanding. Does any rep provider still carry that model (with the ETA)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcsherry Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Impressive work - both Rob's craftmanship, and your dedication to complete the project. I'm fairly ignorant to post 1950's Panerai's, but I think anyone can see that this is as close to perfect as it's possible to get! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
