    Parnis Aviator Watch

    I'm not a big fan of those asian "Homages" sold on ebay & co., but i would like to share with you how they can be lightly i'mproved for a daily use.

    The stock lume is weaker than i expected...i had to apply two layers to get a decent looking and glowing lume.




    With new lume.













    The chinese movement came clean and well assembled but it had to much beat error and low amplitude...




    It took me several minutes to regulate it and fine tune it...but finally i got it working well.




    Unfortunatelly i have not taken pictures of the uggly gaskets, but i had to replace them all to achieve 5atm WR.

    Thank you for watching!

    Ok now you are just showing off with these mods! Just kidding, wish I had the skill and time (pun intended) to try this.

    Very impressive, how long does it take to apply the new lume?

    So if you make a mistake do you have to start again or to what extent can corrections be made?

    There is no room for mistakes, no second chance...If the lume is applied wrong it cant be removed.
