Any feedback on the new rep Egizianos, particularly the vintage model. How do they wear? What's lume like?

They wear HUGE... But if you keep the strap tight they are comfortable.
The lume is typical rep lume...
Nice watch. With a couple mods, they are very nice.
Heres a couple pics.

This model has been around for years. Flavor-Flav started wearing his back in the late 80's.

Now, I'm all about Pams and pro most of the models. But that 'thing' they still dare to call a 'wristwatch' is simply ridiculous IMO, tight-wearing the strap or not, IMO

It may however double-up as a nice vintage desk clock, or even a wall clock though, no probs at all - LOL!

I actually did have a local cabinet maker use a router to carve out a piece of really nice wood to make a desk mount for the 60mm Pam. It was very nice, but was sold with the watch and I dont even think I ever took a picture of it.
Imagine for a moment an angled solid piece of wood that had the shape of a 60mm Panerai routed out of it with a felt layer on the back. It then had two holes drilled in it so that when the watch was taken off the strap, it could quite literally be mounted in to the wooden stand using the original screws.
It was actually very nice... But the bottom screw had to be kept out so that you could lean it forward to wind it every other day.
