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

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.

Bezel ferrule is then securely cemented in place.

Nice job Bry. Very detailed,

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

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!
