I think it

Wow, it

I would stay away from it.

This Panerai is sold as a Swiss Eta. Well it's Asian

Is that a dead fly on your watch Freddy?

If you look closely to the hands, you still can see a dark spot in the middle. Is it really that hard and/or expensive to put an extra layer of lume on it?

Are you guys really missing the point here or are you just [censored]ing me

does anyone know what the MSRP is on a gen SS bracelet? are they even for sale? thanks.. just thinking they may be a good addition to the new seconds at 12 version

About $ 2000,- I guess.

There was one on the bay a little while ago for arround $1500,- I believe. Good luck hunting though

I TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE AUTHENTICITY AS A GEMOLOGIST..............sure

Man, it

Thanks for sharing sander appreciate that. I like your pics & looks like I'm another step closer to getting the BP. Just that now I have to take note of the AR and the strap. By the way may I know what is the length of the gen strap, is it 145mm x 52mm? I have a small wrist too.

The small strap is really perfect for my wrist. I use the hole in the middle now.

The short side is the same as the

After seeing Chiefs Franck Muller, I decided to give mine some wrist time this week.

Absolutely asian. Look at the bezel of the pam 250. It says tachymeter instead of tachymetre.

Also the subdials are place correctly and not like the swiss 7753 too far to the outside of the dial. The back also has the limited number on it which is not on the swiss one.

When I think of it, it

Looking very good Raymond!

Love the strap and the GC

Wear it well sir!

To be honest, I think it

My mov't did not have any screws to hold it to the movement ring.

My rep strap was sticky and had a horrid strong plastic scent. Not for the faint of heart/scent! This watch is a nice one; and as such, it deserves a nice strap like the beautiful Strapluxe one(s) that I purchased.

Cheers

Thanks for the tip sir

Mine has a little glue on the movement ring (opposite side of the crown) to keeps it in place and stops it from rattling I guess.

Anyway, the pr hand is at 7 now and I also fixed the noisy rotor.

Much better!

You got that strap WITH gen buckle for 230 eur?

no no no.... strap alone. The clasp is about 300 eur I think. Mine is already a few years old.

The rep deployant is really accurate though and would do for me if I didn

Hiya Woody! No this is the accurate version 1. I moved the power reserve hand so that my watch is not like all the other reps. The power reserve seems to be the same as 2824 or 2836. The movement is quite impressive. I will post some pics of it soon. It's a well-made watch. The AR is also very natural in appearance.

Cheers

Hi Euno,

I just opened up mine to see if there are any surprises when I want to move my PR hand like yours.

And yes there is one

It's a nice watch

can't wait to receive mine

sorry to hear about your AP, but, thanks for the advice i'm going to see if i can't get gen strap

any chance to know how much you bought the gen strap for your gf ?

The gen Strap is Euro 230,- at the AD. Not too bad i think!

Today I received my new BP (V1) from Andrew and when I unwrapped it, I noticed a spot on the middle of the crystal. I took a cloth and tried to wipe it off.

Instead of disappearing, it got bigger and bigger

This one had some lettering removed, the "L Swiss L" was changed to "T Swiss T", and new lettering applied, all done freehand.

Am I the only who

Just wear it a while. That should take care of it.

ha ha,

Well the funny thing is that I hat it done about 4 years ago and there were still no signs of wear on it.

The only problem was the part that is in contact with the wrist. After a while it started to chip a little. Some kind of reaction with sweat??

All the visible parts were still as new.

Anyway, the problem is solved!

I was also thinking about getting one, but before I ordered it I tried a gen one. (As I always do)

Man it
