82 Review...Version 2.0...DSL beware...

[Novesh]

thank you for ya'll interest!

I do agree that the lume is a bit 3d, and I doubt panerai makes their lume that 3d, but I really don't care.

unless I walk into a paneristi meet and wave it around no one will know the difference.

one thing though, I am thinking about a project watch, with the blue dial, white hands, and a completely different color lume, don't know how it would look but we will see if I deciede to go for it.

thanks again for all your interests.

Sounds like fun, maybe Davidsen could make the next RWI (parerai look-a-like) TI watch ;-)
YeS :evil:

Nice review with excellent picture. I am holding out my purchase of this watch mainly due to dial issue and "not so good" caseback too. Nonetheless, I will bear this in mind. I hope david really fixes the dial's lume colour. It's definitely not C3 colour. In case you are reluming Novesh, don't try C1, go for C3 (which is the same as the hands' lume). The white is really too white which is wrong.

i would say tritec natural is the best color for pams hands down and it is just as bright as c3.

peep: it's a mixture of C1 and C3 then... can't say C1 purely because it's really going to give you a pure white.

c1 will not give you a pure white color over davidsen's lume. it will give you a mint green color.

the 082 has white lume. it is not pure c3. my seiko monster has allot of c3 and it is a dirty cream white exactly like the lume chart shows it to be. a gen 082 has white markers. if this could be fixed by mearly reluming it my 195 wouldn't be green now and i would have already bought one of these.

I got it. It's due to existing green lume being masked with C1. Then the colour would not be green then.
