6152-1 LP

It often seems to me that this hobby is a thing of the past. Because old ingredients are very difficult to find, and there is no desire to spend time on it. But this disease continues to follow))) It is 2025 outside the window, and I am assembling watches based on components that are more than 15 years old))

Case old cartel fiddy reshaping:
-plexi night watch
-crown guard night watch
-The tips have been changed and rods have been installed instead of screws.

Is it a closed caseback? Beautiful build.

Yes - its amazing how quickly the vintage Panerai following has regressed in the last 4-5 years. Thankfully there are still several of us that still have the desire and enthusiasm to search for the rare parts necessary to achieve builds like yours. I have pulled together a decent hoard of old cases, movements and other important elements to ensure I can build one or two a year.

This 6152-1 build is really nicely done. I think the Southy dial is the star... Wow. The fiddy case is also a great one to use as it's shape is very comfortable to wear.

I also like that you didn't over-age the hands - they really compliment the crisp dial.

What are the details on the strap?

Thanks for posting!

what an incredible build! Thank you for sharing. This brings me back to what the hobby was about 10 years ago when parts needed to be sourced to build examples such as this. I'm also interested to know about who the strapmaker is.

@AXXE1985 I’m not familiar with Southy dial, can that be sourced or commissioned? There are certain dial colors Belkin won’t do.
