PVD Coated 40/42 mm?

So with my semi-small wrists a 40 mm watch is just right (I love my pam 048).

I really want a pvd/black watch, but want to stick with that size.

Anyone have any experience having a 48 or a 352 pvd coated by one of the numerous aftermarket companies?

It seems like it would even be significantly cheaper as the cost of the cheapest Pvd pam is in the 8-9k no?

I had a Panerai 000 that I had Jack at IWW do the PVD treatment and love it, I say find yourself a used example of what you want, it doesnt need to be in great shape because he has to bead blast the whole watch before he does the PVD, so really, if you find one that is beat up at a cheap price do it, then send it to him. I had my 000 done in May of this year and I do have a thread that I started with some pics.
