psd123 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Hi, Just getting into the rep scene and want to try my hand at modding, have ordered a panerai, have gone for a cheap 111 to start off with and looking for parts to test my skills with. Have already found some great guides on the site and hope to put them to use once i can source some parts, was also interested in trying to relume the standard dial and hands that come with the watch but do not seem to be able to find any powder in the UK. Any advice and thoughts gladly taken on board. Cheers Paul Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

psd123 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Thanks for the replies guys, will give the lume place a go the tutorial looks very useful. After any parts i get my hands on really, CG, crown and case backs to start as i guess they are the most straight forward parts to replace.

dingle 57 Posted February 26, 2010 the 35MM is the only 111 dial on the website. I am almost 100% sure this is the one you want. :yoda: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
