Some of you folks may remember my PAM homage project inspired by JohnG over at RWG. Well, after two months of waiting and crystal issues, the CL is assembled and running. I have a new found respect for those that can take great Panerai pics. I cannot, but still wanted to share my completed project. I have a spare dial and hand set that may get some lume practice, but I'm just going to enjoy this one for a while as is. Thanks for looking.

Very Nice! Even though I am new to rep watches, I feel the need to open the watch case and learn to do what you just did. Now to find a nice watch tool set. Since this is my new passion, I feel it would be a valuable skill to learn how to build and repair watches.

Thanks for all the compliments, guys! I really appreciate it. I have a deep respect for the professional modders and watchsmiths out there. Those guys make it look easy

well done bud!!

lume shots!!!

The lume is pretty much zero. The hands have no lume at all. At some point I will finish out the second dial and hand set and try luming them. For now, she's running and I'm not going to monkey with that for a while. ;)

I just want to congratulate you on that fabulous job! Somehow I missed this thread and found it as a result of the further mods done to your watch. Can you tell me where I can get a set of hands like that. I'm so inspired I'm goning to give this a try! Beautiful!
