Panerai 6152 and its goodies...

My kind of set.... That was the military diver's equipment, at that time... Best, Nicolas ...

That’s quite a collection; forgive the pun!

By: nasseriq : December 27th, 2020-12:45

;) All forgiven.

Quite a collection! You would think they would use rubber straps back then. I can only surmise the effect of seawater and leather

That's the charm and the magic of these tools and watches.

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-14:15

Looks terrific on a collectible level -- the perfect set for the hardcore Panerai collector! ;-)

Well, at that time, there was not much more to choose.

That wrist compass is also beyond cool! Thanks for sharing this.

By: orahu : December 27th, 2020-14:28

The only drawback is that is enormous...

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-14:29

What is that tool in the middle with the black sheath?

By: ArmisE : December 27th, 2020-16:28

I can’t tell if it’s a pressure gauge of some sort, or a wrench, or a knife? Or all three in one? Thanks.

A knife.

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-21:59

very cool! thank you.

By: ArmisE : December 28th, 2020-03:41

Pleasure!

A rerelease of that set

By: dhendolan : December 27th, 2020-16:33

Manufactured with fully modern materials and tolerances, would be quite attractive. I'm certain it would sell well if they didn't go too crazy with the price.

I would be in.

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-21:59

I'm thinking of a flashlight that looks identical

By: dhendolan : December 27th, 2020-16:35

Made with tight tolerances from titanium, stainless, sapphire, LED and Lithium ion batteries. Ditto for the compass and depth guage. Those would be great.

+++1!

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-21:59

Great set. I have similar compass but i would not dive with it on my wrist, ;)

By: ashot : December 27th, 2020-17:16

Well, I think you are right to be reluctant to do so. ;)

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-22:00

Thèse goodies remember me a lot of things... the underwater world... a sea dweller I was, a diver I remain even if the life has change...

By: Alfihar : December 27th, 2020-22:16

The Xa Mas Set.

By: amanico : December 27th, 2020-22:34

Ahahah

By: Alfihar : December 27th, 2020-22:40

Awesome

By: Ahoi : January 11th, 2021-13:30

Thanks for looking, Ahoi.
