I purchased a Rivers bead blasted Mille Metri Panerai from Rivers directly.

I had a crazy idea, why not have my watch smith install the red gaskets that Mellons sent me on the crystal and case back to water proof it and build me a fantasy white dial bead blasted Mille Metri. I had Belkin make me a white Mille Metri Panerai dial with tannish/brownish dial markers as per below. We are going to paint the white Rivers hour and minutes hands black and the white seconds hand red, and make the same mods by Mellons makes to a Rivers Mille Metri case for his Mille Metri based on pictures of Mellons Rivers Mille Metri mods.

This will be an interesting project.

Had to get a new Swiss ETA 2824 movement for it.

Should be ready by the end of next week

can do etching or laser or plasma, depending what is available at your side. here few guys in this forum who offered service. thouth105 also showed how he made his hands for his alarm 3646

blue or yellow... now need to decide what will be better for my 3646 Cort 540 )

Custom hands. First stage is to polish them in place on the sheet. Easier and safer than doing it individually.



Broached out the hole, tight fit for a short section of brass tube, which I’ll broach the inside to fit the pinion.
(Don’t mind the rough end, will be sanded down to correct height. All hand tools only, cutting broaches, files, sandpaper. Dremel for polishing. Wish I had a lathe to play with)




Soldered, just need to clean, file off the tab and give it a final polish, then lume.

nice GMT style Alarm hand! ️ you go for seconds hand, I can see, I desided to leave it blank , but who knows, I left a hole , so can add later

nice project, nice inspiration
