Got my "new" 183!
Picked up a gently pre loved 183 from a strap maker that many in the community are familiar with. He had the gold hands done and that is really what made me snag this piece! I haven't been able to take it off of my wrist yet and is a great compliment to my 113. And of course like anyone with the addiction I have already started searching for the next one
![]() ![]() Anyways hope you guys like it, I know I do ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Is that a modified 183? For all I know 183 comes with black hour and minute hands and a white seconds hand..
Awesome mod if that's the case though!

So is it true that the hands are modded? If so - how do you mod it? For all I know Panerai doens't sell off their gold hands... is it third party or whatnot?
Thanks! :)
