panera Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Hello bros What do you think about this PAM It has no serial at caseback But It looks GEN to me... But All the rest is Ok.. Do you have any idea Cause I will buy with a fair price from a lady ....IMHO She has no idea, what she has...
dluddy Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Looks legit. It is what is called a "Shadow Case" often these were trade show or pre-production run models sold by Panerai insiders or give to VIP's
panera Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Posted February 24, 2010 Hımmmmm... Is it worth to buy ..any market value What is the range lower than higher than or the same with GEN.....
PeteM Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 I have seen a few going from around $6K. But without the paperwork or millesimation I wouldnt like to guess mate unless she has some form of provinence. They were only C-D series 1500 and 1200 respectively. Always did like the brown dial with the Ti
dluddy Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Based on the BB it looks like a S/N of 913
PeteM Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Based on the BB it looks like a S/N of 913 How does that work if its a shadow case, does 913 not exist in correct millesimation or would there be 2 floating about? one with, one without (as above) or more even if they were giveaways etc
dluddy Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Good question Pete and one I'm afraid I can't answer. I'd like to think the BB serialization is such that there wouldn't be another with the same number.
PeteM Posted February 24, 2010 Report Posted February 24, 2010 Good question Pete and one I'm afraid I can't answer. I'd like to think the BB serialization is such that there wouldn't be another with the same number. I just tried using the BB to find the certificate without success. I always use to wonder if the freebie watches OP gave out were part of the numbered run or extras, I never realised they didnt complete the millesimation on these 'shadow' cases. But the BB has always been a means of telling the S/N so I guess that the specific unit number is purely to give the buying owner a sense of individuality as well as warranty backup.
HArwood22 Posted February 26, 2010 Report Posted February 26, 2010 Definitely worth more.... I will ask a friend who works for PAC look at this http://www.rolexforums.com/showthread.php?t=112682 Get back soon should come with a letter of authorization
