Hey all, please read the sticky post at the top here in this forum

I've added the following guideline: Added: July 31, 2009 - No hommage or pet project Panerai watch posts are allowed in this forum. We have this new guideline in effect to prevent potential problems with people using this site as their platform for advert...

Thanks a lot, Anthony, for having added this rule.

As I said, Hommage watches are a Pandora's box I prefer not to open...For our forum sake, and for the high level we just expect from The PPRO Fora. THANKS. Best, Nicolas

I think you may be misguided in the intent of my post that caused the new rule. I challenge you to tell me what model I'm homeaging. I see your point earlier about replicating a watch. That should be enforced. Hey, until you can make a watch, opinions, op...

A few points...

Hello zongaman, It has been interesting to see your progress in design and machining. However in your original post on July 25th you stated: " I'm going to make an aluminum cased 44mm to Panerai specs and do it black anodized. " This of course raised a re...

Nada mas, por favor. I use this forum to engage in conversation with other Panerai enthusiasts And yes, I want to hear their opinions, opinions, and more opinions. And I love the pix, too (genuine Pannies, of course) -- especially the pix!! D

I do too

I'm just being the bad boy and going outside the curve. I hit the wall with the moderators and that has consequences. Nevertheless, I've been given the Ok to post as long as it's a full fabrication and of my design. Hey, I've had my share of Panerai piece...

You wouldn't have to change the rules all along your posts and replies, what you actually did. An Hommage watch you will make only for your use, but in 10 pieces if people like it? Are you kidding? I don't like your game, nor I like Hommages. To me, this ...

Too far and offesnsive

By: Zongaman : July 31st, 2009-15:09

I don't appreciate the "your game" comment. You beat up on me when I first posted so I took your advice and changed my design. I'm going to say it one last time, I am not selling the watch, PERIOD! It's my design and I'm using Panerai, a watch I appreciat...
