Sergio, you made a medical leave sound like

a vacation? smile


How about pix of less featured accessory of the Pre-V instead? 

Unlike the current modern Pams which come with a SS screwdriver, I find the brass version nostalgic due to aged look accompanied with its antique brassy color.

It's smaller and harder to use and it came with only one which make changing the strap of a Pre-V a real pain! 

The double lug screw system improved/evolved into a more practical and friendly single lug screw system of modern pam, probably one of the primary reasons why the 'shoe' culture of pam flourished in the later years.

unless mine is a 209, I still prefer the Pre-V to stick with the double screw system smile

I promised more pix of unconventional Pre-V or its accessory if i could manage to stay up more, just for Sergio smile and Nico is not helping hahahaha..

meanwhile, enjoy!

Mech.

Superb pictures of one of the nicest, if not THE nicest modern Panerai. What a dial, what an allure, what a style! Best, Nicolas

Thanks Nico, it's unclear what we thanked the doc for

the rest took me a few hours :) Mech.

enough of kaki straps...!!!

 
 By: Mech : January 11th, 2013-00:33
swapping out the original strap that came with this watch was a real pain...!!! You needed 2 screwdrivers and Panerai sold you a tiny brassy one? They really never never thought of the 'shoe' culture? :) so instead of strapping on yet another kaki, or the...  

You can't be
