could i get a stainless steel bacelet gold coated?

I really like that watch but I am really concerned about the gold. Eddielee advised to stick with the stainless models and I kinda agree especially when PAMs require winding and the crown and crown guard will be subjected to a lot of wear and tear. The gold could be rubbed off. It's worth looking into for such a sharp looking watch. I have not seen it with a gold bracelet.

i agree, great looking watch but i could see what your saying about the gold coming off (bummer). i wonder if anybody could photoshop a gold braclet on it for me?

typically not a fan of gold, but that is a sweet watch. i have to agree, though, that gold rep watches are trouble...unless you don't mind getting a very limited usage out of them.

check your phone book, or fave jeweler for jewelery plateing

companies , i had a co. in la THICK gold plate a colibre lighter. it was still perfect after years of pocket wear and tear. it cost me 20 $ i also had a movado museum watch [ a cheap rep ] that the gold lasted about 4 months of continuous wear, then showes ss everywhere !

I absolutely love this PAM. The guy who sold me my car (it was a Land Rover Volvo dealership, seemed like all the salesmen wore reps-- but shit, they probably do make good money) had this exact watch on. Black croco too.


Is EL the only guy who stocks this?

... i just thought of how it'd look in rose gold and it brought me to tears.

WO mart here http://www.wo-mart.com/product_info.php ... f3d0ba2ff0 he has the white dial also. Pretty good price too. If I was sure about the gold, I would have this puppy right now with a gen croc strap

You can gold plate yourself.. and the link given, Caswell, has technical dude that will help you through the process.. for a pannie bracelet, a small 'tank would work a treat..

Should one experience failure of lesser quality plating, one can do send a watch out (expensive) or one can "Do It Yourself": http://www.caswellplating.com/index.html

Cheers,

Might be a bit OTT for Panerai given the brand's heritage - but as the posters above indicate, it's do-able :shock:
