Vintage Panerai 6154
The Claw



Yes, I built another 6154. I don't know how many of these watches I built but no matter what each time I found it a pleasure for the eye and the soul.



It started as a fairly simple 6154 but I often mention each build has its own life, and this one was not different. I think of it as "the claw".



I did not mean to crack the crystal, it was totally random.
For some reason I thought placing the built case including plexi in the ultrasonic cleaner with some alcohol I use for cleaning purposes was a good idea. Turned out it was, but for a different reason than I thought :)



Luckily, for the rest it all went smooth more or less. Bigwaved provided a nice dial, Athaya nice hands, Dellone a good Molnija with Rolex bridges, Orloff a great strap and voilà: another nice HF build!

That's all for now, see you soon with more stuff.
Hope you enjoyed the reading and pics :)
