lazarini Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Now i have got this piece in a trade with Dani (thx again bro) watch came with the Leelo DW installed and a Swiss 2893-2 Gmt workhorse under the hood... I was quite happy with it but knowing what can be done kept me one week before i started to molest The Zigmeister into taking it in... I had some parts that i wanted to install and the mandatory elusive lume job Luck was on my side The Zigmeister responded quick and said he will find an opening to get the job done i packed the things up and sent it off... In the meantime fishgoodep posted his 29 an outstanding example and all i had to do is wait I have returned today from vacation and picked it up in office... ill let the pictures talk but u can bet im really happy with what i received BIG Thx to The Zigmeister for the work done no doubt an artist in its own class how he re-lumes that dial by hand is beyond my understanding thx also to kruzer for the advices along the way and some tips and tricks that came in handy. Also thx deltahoe on a great deal on a Pam gen calf. The mix: Pam 29 Swiss ETA 2893-2 GMT movement C1+C3 Superlume dial and hands Lello DW Chief Cyclops Gen SS auto Crown Lever tightened, new pin fabricated CG miled to fit the case perfect Longer stem installed so gen crown fits lever perfect Re brushed and polished CG Gen OEM OP Black calf Rep Brushed SS Panerai Thumb buckle Oka time for the pictures And that sweet lume shot for the cherry on the cake Hope u enjoyed this little presentation Regards LAZ
amn Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Breathtaking!!! How can we who are not worthy contact The Zigmeister? Andrew
fishgodeep Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Diggin it Laz.....looks superb with all those essential mods done ...hard to separate from a gen!! Thanks for sharing and enjoy!! FGD
kornblomst Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 If you're selling - I'm buying! ;o) The pam29 is my favourite piece, but so far the 2836-2 movement has discouraged me from buying. What a stunning piece you have - congrats! /Korn
mastergod Posted April 6, 2009 Report Posted April 6, 2009 Amazing specs and result! Truly a piece of art. Let me suggest a cheesy fantasy idea that will - and should - repel many members - PVD the whole thing and have the engraved numbers on the bezel lumed...Heresy/high-treason I know, but still... MG
oncyte Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 This is absolutely the best I've seen....I'd say you have a gen there. Sooo jealous right now. Question: Are all chief's cyclops one size? If not what size is accurate to the 029?
lazarini Posted April 7, 2009 Author Report Posted April 7, 2009 Hello all thanks for the kind comments! @ fish thx man coming from you this means it must came out good... @ korn ... not ATM... but never say never @ kruz... cheers man and once again as said thx for all the advice via PM! @ oncyte... have no idea got this with the watch already as an extra but im sure some other members will be able to answer... more pics got a reverse ring for my lens today... be gentle this is my first attempt on half-macro shoots Tried a different strap today needed something a bit lighter in color to match the brown shoes regards Laz
