Bike Mike Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I love all the new in house calibers being developed with ETA pulling back their reigns. Dead sexy! Love the massive bridges! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
projectologist Posted January 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 Yeah... with ETA announcing that they are not doing OEM movements anymore... not sure if Panerai will start decorating the 6497's in-house, out-source the finish work or just phase out the 6497 altogether.

My money is on the P.999 is the replacement for the 6497. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishgodeep Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 It does look amazing but the bridge screws look large or at least pronounced? The balance looks very sexy though !! Thanks for sharing FGD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdivad Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I thought the a factory in China was working on a rep of this... does anyone know about the outcome of that? I would really hope they are working on the new 44mm 1950 models... they are so sexy!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 P- Thanks for the pic. I can't imagine that is the replacement for the 6497 unless they are going to crank up the price of standard handwinds to $7 or $8k. I also have never looked closely but didn't know they actually number their movements as xxx of 500. I suppose it could ultimately result in matching the movement to the case.
