gianton Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Lay updated me with QC pics and video, watch looks great! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdQlIKTT5kQ
miihkali Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) That looks really Gen Except that the backside is upside down. The movement seems to be flipped 180degrees on this destro? Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk Edited January 14, 2011 by miihkali
plaifender Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Except that the backside is upside down. The movement seems to be flipped 180degrees on this destro? Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk it's destro.... that's why the movement is flipped.... The crown stem can only engage the movement from one place on the movement. If the crown is on the other side of the case... You guessed right.. You have to turn the movement accordingly so that the crown will enter and engage the movement Edited January 14, 2011 by plaifender
miihkali Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 (edited) Yes but isn't the movement in the gen mirrored instead of flipped? Oh and the watch is indeed very good looking! Wear it proud. Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk Edited January 14, 2011 by miihkali
ocram Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Wow....just wow!!! No need for any mods on this one if you could live with the non-dagger movement. Wear it well, this one is amazing
gianton Posted January 14, 2011 Author Report Posted January 14, 2011 Thanks guys! I never had a destro before so I don't know if I am going to like it. Regarding the wrong movement I think I can live with it, after all it's a REP priced almost as my Dirk's strap that I have! I think it's a good beater till a 005 or better a 000 appears.
zeroshiki Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 the gen 219 also has the movement upside down...
miihkali Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 the gen 219 also has the movement upside down... Thanks for the info, I stand corrected. Initially thought that it was just a quick workaround from the rep makers.
Lobster Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 ok, even IF the movement was all upside down with wrong printing etc... for that price, what gen item can you get from Panerai? This is the Patek level or repping
TK471 Posted January 14, 2011 Report Posted January 14, 2011 Yeah, this watch is pretty amazing. PM sent on details for Jay.
hambone Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 I just ordered this myself. The QC pics and video are a nice touch!
mambo Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 the gen 219 also has the movement upside down... The Gen : http://www.paneraisource.com/watch_details/Historic_2.html But who cares the 'officine panerai' is the wrong way around , it's still a great rep ...
gianton Posted January 20, 2011 Author Report Posted January 20, 2011 How can I contact Jay? Info@replicamake.com

ugoderosa Posted January 20, 2011 Report Posted January 20, 2011 What's with the cheesy music on the you tube videos? it is a soundtrack from a 1990's softcore porn movie
hambone Posted January 23, 2011 Report Posted January 23, 2011 This is mine. The strap even looks good!
Owin Posted January 24, 2011 Report Posted January 24, 2011 for the ones who says a lefty may be good nice watch but dont forget guys its a left handed ehhe if you want same thing in right handed you should go for 112
