Very nice dial.

He told me that the dial is gen and it comes from „FABRICCA QUADRANTI S.A. NOVAZZANO“ and it’s from the Pre-V era.

New kid on the block

Just finished MM based on River with red gaskets and new dial as well hands:)
Gen movement and River rubber strap .
Maybe strap to be exchange? So any idea for another rubber strap

So I have two modded MM now:)

Well done these look fantastic- dlc dial and hand combo excellent. I have done a few ennebimetri’s over the years abs regret selling them…

Just built this from spare parts.






Maybe I have to order a Marina Militare dial from AliE … and then off we go.

FABBRICA QUADRANTI S.A. NOVAZZANO" and Panerai:The inscription "FABBRICA QUADRANTI S.A. NOVAZZANO" associated with Panerai refers to rare, historic service or replacement dials (specifically the famous "sandwich" dials) produced for the ETA 6497 movements used by the well-known watchmaking brand.Here are the key details surrounding this connection:The Manufacturer: Fabbrica Quadranti S.A. is a historic Swiss workshop specializing in the production of high-end watch dials. It was originally located in Novazzano (Canton of Ticino) before moving to Stabio and later Besazio. The company was ultimately acquired by the Gucci Group (Kering) in 2013.

Heard this was one of the factories used to make Panerai dials and this model wasn’t picked so they are prototype or rejects.

Swiss made been around since 1990s for Panerai easy to put T or L on them
