Here's the list of mod done on this baby.

- Tritium look relume (dial/hands)

- Rebuild and relume the pearl

- Bezel marker polish

- CG lever tightened with rubber o-ring, pin polished and flattened

 

Here are the picts.

That 243 looks brilliant...like the strap you have on it, makes a very nice combo

the 243 looks so much better on leather than on the rubber strap

Thanks for the compliments. :rofl:

 

@Silver: that's the Kain Heritage strap that i bought on sale, very good strap indeed.

 

By the way, the PAM 243 came from Robert @ PrestigeWatchCo (PWC).

 

I just got the free Panerai 2010 catalogue and took a lume shot of the 243. I cant get the camera white balance to capture the color, lume should be green and not aqua. The lume is bright, this was shot at 1/13sec F2.8 35mm. If I would've shot it for say 1 or 1.5sec it will look glowing like a torch in the picture.
