Looks good, my friend.

absolutely beautiful dial

Nice vintage-izing process, dial is beaten 'to death' but well done

I'd flip that CG upside down for even more vintage look, IMO looks better without the modern Reg. TM. stamp, up to you really :wink:

good one,

thx,
don't like the letters, too. I think I'll grind them off and keep the direction of the CG. Let's see how it works...

nice work! beautiful movement too...

was recently able to check out some wwII era panerai's w/ angelus mvmts (i think)

they had the true vintage look and had obviously seen war duty. prices were 50,000 and higher tho...

i just LOVE the way the vintage watches look. And there is nothing wrong with the "beaten to death" look! Thats how it should be.. Used and abused!

nice work!

wonderful piece of work. 'Weathering' is a fine art and you do it well.
