Parnis is working, only the date is a bit crooked and off centre, bought from hongkong online seller with the Pam homage, forgot the sites name.
The blue hands and markers are damn nice, poor man's portugese.. Hehe

Seiko5 got water vapor, wonders how it manage to seep in

Parnis is homage to IWC, scott, you are right.

Asian Unitas 6498 is the beat for Parnis. Oops didn't see the automatic words in dial.
