coliver18 Posted May 5, 2009 Report Share Posted May 5, 2009 Nice to b back on RWG after a long abscence. I've had this 28A in a drawer disassembled for the better part of a year. I bought a gen right around the same time I got this back from having gen PVD applied, so I never felt rushed to get it up and running. Rolli supplied the PVD service (which included leaching the old fake PVD coloring off) and some additional parts. So big thanks to him! Before I purchased the 28, the previous owner had already had some significant mods done including the date wheel and cyclops. In addition to the PVD, I've since added a new crown and purchased a gen buckle, which rolli coated for me as well. I couldn't be more pleased with the way this piece turned out. I apologize for the crappy pictures, but I was so excited at how this turned out I wanted to share what I could. FYI, the crystal is actually in perfect condition, any blemishes are due to my impromptu photography. I'm going to dress it up with a nice Simona croc that I have lying around somewhere and then take some real pics to share later. In the meantime, please indulge me as I welcome my new baby into the family! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK471 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 The 28 is one of the unsung beauties IMO of the Panerai collection. Great watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishgodeep Posted May 7, 2009 Report Share Posted May 7, 2009 Great looking 28 you got there - welcome back to the game with one of the best PAM reps ever made!....Rolli's PVD is very nice and transforms the watch IMHO. Cheers FGD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
