Ok.... just got this done last night... it's a gen crystal from an A,B,or C series (6mm cyclops)... the design of it was completely different than the rep as it had the cyclops area hollowed out and then a cyclops set inside that hollowed out area...

Props to projectologist, the newest pledge for the SoCal family for helping out with this one... and to all the guys in the family for their continued help and counsel... this was the piece that brought me back into this hobby, and i'm glad it did...

Panerai 063 replica.... ETA 2893-2 movement / Ziggy Lume / Genuine Crown install by Ziggy / Genuine Crystal and Crown Guard install by me / Lello Datewheel... strap by Schwing, procured from H_U...

If anyone has, or knows how i can get, a correct caseback, let me know please.... i have the b100/500.... need the Cxxxx/1500 OP6524 to complete this!

you know, surprisingly enough, Silix MAY have the C caseback. Email him just incase.

Oh, bytheway, like Hooligan said, I hate you.

it don't get any better than that. If I'm not mistaken didnt you have that watch at the last SF GtG?

You are motivating me to sell all my mediocre reps, which are many, to fund 2 or 3 really nice pieces. Enjoy your watch, it's a beauty.

Stunningly beautiful. A true work of art. If you ever want to sell it, put me on the short list.

Again, why buy a gen?


Cant really see in the pic but maybe he wanted the correct AR... on gen Pam's it is a yellowish brown (not blue)...

Looks good!
Wear it well and in good health...

On *some* PAMs the AR is yellow-ish. On my 002D the AR was noticeably blue. On my I series 210 and my wife's H series 048 didn't have any noticeable color at all.
