My 359M From PureTime
I love the watch, but had to make my own strap to wear it. Keeps good time - In my circle of friends, no one has ever heard of Panerai and it is sooooooo popular else where. I am going to perfect my strap making and maybe offer one or two to those folks who have larger wrists than standard. I have an 8 1/4 inch wrist and the strap that came with the watch didn't fit. I salvaged the buckle as you can see on the strap. Have ordered a few more buckles for future straps. The most difficult and time consuming part is the lacing. If you don't lace, you can knock these babies out in less than 1/2 hour.
Thank you Puretime for taking us through the process of the making of this watch. I think it was a good marketing tool ALL the rep manufactures should use. Let the potential customers make comments as the RD process goes forward. Truly a novel idea. Cheers JackTheBear

I usually use an Ultraviolet flashlight to charge the lume when I take photos, that one above I used the HIDs of my car which also works very well.
