Most of my projects have at least some P#nis parts in them. I do sterilise most of my P#nis dials. I'm not brave like the OP to show my P#nis around like that in public.

Well, if I had to show my P*nis here, how about you take a few pictures of yours? It's not exactly public, more like half-public.
+1.4s is pretty darn incredible.

All of these have P*nis bits. The white dial pamhom had P*nis on the dial and I removed it. It's actually Swiss powered. The Tokkotai homage is the accurate one. The Portuguese is all Corgeut (as far as I can tell, it's the same as P*nis) but had the white dial switched to a modded black dial and a change in crown(not pictured). The first watch has a twin that started out as a Corguet and the only way I can tell them apart is by looking at the mangled hands since the original was my first project.

Note how long the straps are compared to the first, which I can't currently wear ( it's strap was moved to the Portuguese.)
So, I suppose my P*nis would be considered pretty long. And with the sizes being 44, 45, and 46mm, they have girth.
Yes, I'm proud.

Obvious connotations aside, you my friend apparently have quite a few P*nises to be proud of. Great builds, and now that you posted the picture, I realized that I read your build thread over on the old HF. Congratulations, what a great job. I am starting out pretty much the same way, but I'm already planning two, as you so aptly named them, pamhoms.

Thanks Rotorua. I like the Parnis stuff. It is fun to build and comfortable to wear. Since I have no intention of building a historically accurate watch, the P*rnis/cartel parts do me fine.

Here is my new favourite:
Parnis Florence rose gold case w/ blackened engravings. It's a really close copy of the Panerai Firenze. I bought the r/g because I don't believe Panerai Ctually makes one.
Asian 6497
Asian r/g hands(for 47mm)
River T/O dial relumed by Mykeos (I saw another T/O dial on th e bay and I kinda wish I got it too. Love the HF logo. )

This is my first 47mm Parnis and I'm loving the size and wearability. It's temporarily on a Vesire strap, but it's not quite the look I want. I have a black 26mm on the way, though I could be tempted by a nice tan with black stitch. This strap is being saved for another project.

What I don't like... this one will fight with my Portuguese homage for wrist time.

Very nice build [mention]macosie[/mention] !!

That last golden one is very nice combo, im planing some stuff to make soon, i use also parnis parts, and im happy with the quality/price

Work in progress with pvirus on a custom dial, alpha handset, looking for another crown style (rlx 8mm?)

I love my 8 day builds and I love my affordable watches as much. Nothing like a customized watch that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg... a few fingers and toes ...
