    Show me your Panda dials ...

    After procrastinating over the lovely Speedmaster Panda dial mod on sales corner, I wondered what other lovely Panda dials exist out there? Does anyone here have one they'd like to share?

    I think a Panda dial will be my next purchase, assuming I get a bonus from my latest iOS game Smash Bandits. Maybe Eddie's Smiths Chronograph will be closer to production by then :)

    Not really sure of the rules regarding panda dials. Is this one?

    Some great examples, thanks! Particularly like the Autavia and the AP, but they're all special.

    As if this thread needed another photo of a Seiko 6138 Panda!
    Although no trees were harmed during the creation of this post, a large number of electrons were greatly inconvenienced.

    Another one I wish I still had - there's a Valjoux 72 in this. Look at that for a chrono second hand!

    That dimly reminds me of this 2013 retro special from Longines (you can tell it's a re-heat from the presence of the date window):



    Which is itself based on a fairly generic design of Longines, popular in the late '60s/early '70s:

    ...but what do I know; I don't even like watches!

    My latest acquisition a 7750 powered Tag auto chrono approx 10 years old I think...





    I am still in the 'bonding with it' stage so maybe not a keeper.

    Thanks - they're certainly different from your 'run-of-the-mill' Seiko 7A38's.

    Here's a couple more 'Panda's, ostensibly produced by the Orient Watch Co., but we know who made them really (SI).

    My battered 'beater' Orient J39725-70:



    and my recently acquired NOS Racer J39024-50:
