I did this project a while back, the first time I used some different hands but since I was not happy with the result I got some different ones but never got around to take some photos. I believe Bullosa also asked for some lume shots, so here they are:

My Panerai stopped ticking.
Over the course of the past few months, I started noticing that the time my watch would continue unwound would gradually diminish. Today I woke up and it had stopped ticking in the middle of the night. So I wound it a little nothing.Wound it a little more nothing.Wound it a little more nothing.And so now it doesn't tick at all.This was a gift, and I've never really had any official instructions or anything with it. I'm not even completely sure how to describe the model. From the markings on the front and back, it reads Luminor Marina, Firenze 1860, and looks exactly like this:cgi.ebay.my/Panerai-PAM-5...ht_8157wt_1107"PAM-51-40mm-Luminor-Marina"Please pardon me if I sound like a total idiot, or disrespectful about the piece. I really know so little about them, have tried to learn in my time. I really have kept and handled this watch with as much care as I know.With that said, I've never been completely sure how much to wind it I've had advice to wind it "as far as I like; I'll 'kno

hi guysAs we're getting more 5167 owners among us I thought it would be useful with a few snaps showing how easy it is to resize the strap - no need to get an AD to do this for youhere's what you need5167 - no need to remove the strap from the headScissors - must be very sharp to get an even cut between the slotsSpringbar toolpicture of the toolssteps1. remove buckle from the strap ends2. cut one slot from each side3. fit buckle back on - this I found important as it gives a good indication of how many slots need to be cut off. if you're sure about the fit you can of course cut off more than one but better to play it safe*4. repeat step two and three until you get a fit where you can stick a couple of fingers between the buckle and your wrist*.
