Mare Nostrum

Recommended Posts

From what I see, the coin edge on the bezel doesn't have as many teeth, and of course there's the movement inaccuracies. But overall, this looks like a great rep. They even caught the holes on the sides of the chrono pushers!

it looks really good and the thing is the venus movement is quite similar to the original

yes, this is a mega awesome pam.

it is a must in a very good sorted collection.

let's go for it.

Agree with you my friend. To me, the Mare Nostrum is so well designed that it transcends "design". It's just... so generic, so "boring" (in a very positive sense) that it distinguishes itself from all other watches. IMHO!

EDIT: Needs a good-old blasting to fulfill its potential though, regardless of the gen!

I just ordered my piece....a very nice rep.....a big watch, but wearable for sure.

Only flaws I saw so far:

- bezel edges are not crisp enough

- numbers are thinner on the rep

Anyway, looking forward to receive it

Looking at the pic above and some other gen pics, I realised the gen dial the markers are cream white in color. The rep dial's markers seem to be yellowish like aged color. Anyway think I will not be bother by it for the moment. Yap would be keen see some pictures of this new watch man! Thanks in advance!

Everyone understands, there are only 99 gen homages in existence and only 4 originals. Very unlikely that anyone will ever see one, except for we rep wearers. We will be the flag-bearers for this watch and the gens will be judged by how close they are to our rep model. LOL

So don't worry, be happy!!

Love this watch. Can't wait to see it in person. Is it me, or is the two-layer dial a wee tad flat?

I am awaiting mine which I ordered last week .

Hopefully it will be better than the pics on the site! They usually are. But apart from bezel and numerals, it appears in the pics there are also flaws in the Inscriptions on the dial colour and shape, the bezel shape on top, the hands, the shape of the case. It will be interesting to see the double AR on it especially as its a thin crystal, the gen is only 1.6mm. The movement is completely incorrect but is so busy (complicated) looking that it would take more than a cursory glance tospot it. The split dial and the crown also lack it.

Hopefully it will be in my hands soon.

As said before though, there was only ever 3 prototypes made in 1943 it never went into production. And this latest PAM 300 is on a 99 limited number release barring OORs and extended runs. The likliehood of bumping into someone that would recognise the flaws is unlikely
