Hi all I have just received QC pics for my 127 and I noticed that the pin of the CG lever is protruding.
From what I have gather it is not normal so I want to ask is if the pin can be pushed to make it flush? Forgive the noob question as this my first panerai.

It can be pushed, use a hard plastic material or something that won't scratch the surface. Make sure you put the back of the GC against something so you don't put stress on the screws, or better off take the GC off before doing it.

The raised pin on the CG is a distinctive feature of vintage Pam's from 1950-60.
Fitted on a Homage Pam you wouldn't want to push it in to a flush to edge position.

@sljc
Is that the actual Noob Ultimate Edition ?
Can you confirm that all movement bridges are engraved correctly ?

Thanks,
