Found a use for an old A2 machine bolt turned to Panerai Bezel ferrule

[bry1975]

Hi chaps,

Just thought I'd show one of the tiny turning jobs I was asked to undertake when I actually had a metal lathe.

I was sent the Panerai 300m Submersible and the chap requested a replacement bezel ferrule to be
machined and fitted the watch was then satin finished.


A2 threaded stub.

Bezel ferrule is then securely cemented in place.

Panerai finally satin finished minus the crown guard and lever.

Nice job Bry. Very detailed,

I take it you had a jewelers lathe?. If so which one?

Thanks,

Nope I'm trained on engineering centre lathes I was using the smallest mini lathe available from Axminster in the uk something like 150W power output!
