hi lovepanerai,

great.

this model 253 will be very fast at my wrist too.

really amazing design. wear it with love.

rolli :band1:

I guess nobody expected this :Jumpy:

Just received this PAM253 Regatta Flyback from River in just 2 days from Taiwan to California :p

A lot of things are fixed on this one in comparison to the 212's out there, but judge for yourself - enjoy :wub:

well the font is different, but the positioning is correct and yes it is the old 7750 - if it breaks down I will put a Swiss 7750 in :D

that sounds good. even though I dont like the way they did it on the (genuine) regatta (because it just doesnt look as it should look on a 10.000$ watch), I'm happy that the asian repmakers atleast got the rotor right :)

I prefer it to the 212 and am appreciative of the improvements. But the tickmarks on the dial still drive me crazy. On the 212 the tick marks were oriented wrong. On this one it is missing half of them. :bangin: This is actually a step back in that particular regard. Here is the gen:

I still prefer it to the 212 though. :)

remember this is a very rare watch only 500 produced, so the chances of even AD's or Paneristi for that matter being able to tell the difference are very low - that's not say that it doesn't bug me a little ;)

Of course the real improvement with this is the OP and serial numbers on the caseback. Why oh why does the newer 212 now have a sapphire crystal but still the same shitty caseback!! Fukkin hell it's annoying. Sapphire crystals are hopefully going to be available soon for these reps. I am awaiting a sample based on my designs in mineral and if all is well they will be made in sapphire fairly soon so keep a look out for updates on this.

OMG....this one is really great...just checked...but really no post from River selling it...

these reps are just keeping me on the low level of cash in my pocket..DAMN!

wear it well!

you should send River a PM or email, could very well be that he sold me his first sample - man am I lucky :D

cash in my pocket ... what cash :bangin::bangin:
