1. Do you think it's possible to upgrade a Gen 372 with the hands from a 587?
2. How to?

I wouldn't mess with a gen that way. Who knows, perhaps Panerai could release one in that configuration sometime in the future...

Why not buy both reps instead?

Hey, this is exactly what I want to do to my rep 372... Hands from 587 are so sexy and will turn the look of 372 to the next level. Yes, I won't do it to gen but why not to a rep???

You can call me crazy, but I'll do it on my gen 372. Keeping safe the actual hands will let me revert the watch any time I want ; ))

so, any idea where/how to upgrade the 372 with gen 587 hands?

I didn't tried yet at the Panerai boutique, cause I'm sure they will not accept to do that

it's pretty obvious that they would refuse to do anything like that, only local reliable local watch smith could do this for you.

from me... sounds tempting.

No idea how, but KW 587 has perfectly polished "gen-like" hands. even if watch itself is inaccurate.

128USD at toro bravo now.

still I think it's worth to try, the watch is based on 6497 so later you can sell parts as a donate without problems + plus the strap is better than typical rep average quality.
