I'm quite sure he will ship them after 9th. Remember that whole of China is shut down until then so even if he ships it, EMS will not start delivery only after that

IF it's from the 177L Factory, I wonder if they"ll use the same movement? My 177's second hand is not as smooth as my 21600bph 111H. Small but noticeable difference.

I plan on using making a hybrid from 005K and 111J parts.
111J Case
111J Crown
111J Movement
111J Crown guard
005k Crystal
005K Dial & hands
005K Case back.

And does the 005k comes with the sandwich dial, it looks like it is sandwich from puretime's webste. but i am sure the gen is sausage all the way.

111J is not correct for this model. It doesn't have strap notches between the lugs and it should

Dunno, looks like sausage to me mate. I guess light can play you tricks but if that is sandwich then scratch me off that buying list

Yeah that's true but that's true and best option here is a LH which will cost you just about the same as the watch :facepalm:

Good point, looks like it doesn't have a roller ball... or maybe it's too flash that cannot be seen?

Best pictures I found here http://www.network54.com/Forum/353390/message/1267558267/FS-+LNIB+Panerai+005K+(KERAT)

Actually you're right! THe 005k DOES have a roller ball CG, it's just so flush that it's almost impossible to see.

Look at it closely on this pic, you can barely see it but it's there:

And on this one if you look in closely there's a cut out on the tip of the lever where it touches the crown. That's where the roller thingy is:
