rosamannen Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hi! I'm quite new here, so maybe I'm doing this the wrong way. If so, please forgive me but let me know. At the moment I'm actually more of a Rolex guy, with a gen Datejust on my wrist and a rep Sub coming in, but I spotted Stallone's Panerai PAM332 when watching The Expendables and I immediately knew that this was a watch that I needed to have. Of course, since there was only made 500 of the gen, and it costs quite a bit more than my salary allows me to spend on a watch, I went searching for a replica. Without success... So please, if you know where to get hold of one, let me know. I'm fine with a 21j asian movement, as long as the watch looks fairly ok and is at least water protected. I wouldn't like to spend much more than $200 on it, but of course, I'll have to take what I can. Thanks a lot! Oh, I know the movie is just braindead action, but I quite enjoy that.

StormTooper4 Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Always helps to post a picture of what you are after Some guys have had there 212/253 PVD'd or DLC'd and built their own but that would be at least $600+ or there abouts Watcheden has some cheapos which are similar but not quite a 332 Or a Better option could be this and the cheapest is this one at 138$ you get what you pay for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosamannen Posted October 7, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Thanks a lot for your help. They all look nice, but knowing myself, I would probably not be satisfied with any of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear you , perhaps you should see if you can wait to get a better non PVD version like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosamannen Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 (edited) The non-PVD version wasn't bad at all, but I really like the dot hour markers, as opposed to the stick ones. I've come across some websites that claim to sell what I'm looking for. Magically they all cost between $245 and $249 and they're all discounted as well. Unfortunately all the websites are present at lists of scam sites as well... Oh, and they all use the same pictures of gens.

blue_sphere Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Good for you researching rosa. Definitely stick with the dealers here. If you really want a 332 I think your best bet would be to pvd coat one yourself. EDIT: Also there is a rumor that noob is working on a bunch of pam reps for christmas release. So maybe wait a month or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue_sphere Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Again though rosa, Just a rumor and not even sure if the 332 is in that batch. Ask the dealers if they have any news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I'll do that. Thanks either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosamannen Posted October 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) I just had n idea... Do you think it could be possible to fit the dial and hands from a PA0328 rep into the case of a PA0406 rep? They look the same size. 328 here: http://www.timesshop...hronograph.html 406 here: http://www.timesshop...hronograph.html The 328 has the same dial and hands as the 332 and the 406 has a PVD coated case. Since they're both on sale at Timesshop, it shouldn't be too expensive either. Edited October 10, 2011 by rosamannen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosamannen Posted October 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 I just found this, on a trusted seller's website too... http://www.silix-prime.com/pans153-p-4215.html Doesn't this one really look like a 332, except for the rubber strap? The dial is right, the case matches. There seems to be one hand missing, but is that really a big deal? Not for me. What do you think?

Nick2T Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 There is a rep of the Pam332 by the H-factory coming so I would just sit back, relax and wait 'till it's here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
