My wrist is puny as well. Tried the 392 n found it to be too thick and out of proportion on a 42mm. Tried on a 312 n surprisingly can wear and feels more balanced.

Suggest anyone who is interested in the 392 to also try the 312. U may b pleasantly surprised. Pams are meant to b big n their 44mm can fit most people. 47mm on the other hand could b abit harder

there's 40mm ones.=:p

Guys, base watch is around 180, modding depending on parts. Can be cheap can be expensive. See what you fancy. I spend 55 on dial 60 for bezel. And labour see how handsome you are.

Like that we send a handsome gaoxing84 to modify our watch will do.


like that all free Labour. Hahah

Lately, Panerai is getting too common liao. Whenever i was on the go, always saw people wearing it.

Look like going to replace Rolex soon as the most popular watch brand here.

I actually pay attention to watches people wear everywhere I go. I frequent Parkway Parade and every weekend go there for lunch or shop about 2 hours confirm around 5 rolexes. I walked into a buffet at King's hotel the other day, within the 1st 5 mins, BAM! 4 rolexes. Panerai, lucky if I see 1 per week. Way I see it...Panerai will never be mainstream as that is not their objective. Watch the interview with their CEO Bonati on Youtube in 2012.

SKX007 with Yobokies Bezel Insert and Oyster installed by K2. Not that close to Rolex, but can be had for less than $500.

Can check out yobokies or dagaz for green bezel availability. U can even get the merc hands from them.

Or simply look at Steinhart's ocean 1 green. No need mod at all.

I went to check out steinhart ocean 1 green.. Can they actually do it without any copyright or patent issue..? Even the hands and cyclope looks like a Rolex..!!? :eek:

But nice, like u say, no need mod at all~ :s12: best
