Belkin White Dial Rivers Mille Metrii Panerai
Posted: April 20th, 2025, 8:22 am
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
