Love the panda. Mines more standard than mod, but I live yours. I'm a Dr. Too, would love that bezel!

This inspired me to do my own mod on a recent 3572.50 I purchased. Have the panda dial on the way with silver hands and also ordered a leather NATO to go along. Pictures soon...

The dial and hands have arrived from Otto Frei... It's off to my watch maker on Monday and hopefully the results will be out soon!

The mod is finally done. Took the dial and hands to Michael Young today and he swapped it for a small fee. Also picked up a nice brown strap and voila...
