torobravo Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 This is a review of the PAM 127 by the N Factory, their old model, vs the new one, and their upgradings. It is a very pleasant surprise to see these changes they got, I think it is one of the must have models for all the huge wrist Panerai lovers. The visible changes are: - On the crystal the blueish AR replaced with the colorless AR, I think the images speak for themselves - The crown guard is different and better engraving - The movement decoration is much more better than the previous one, engravemen is more thin so I guess is a few steps closer to the gen - Of course, the Superlume is outstanding Thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed itForgot to mention that the new strap also is outstanding quality, calf leather, soft and flexible.

lfovco Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 That's a really big difference, now you can see that the first release was pretty bad. The CG Lever in the new one is better as well. Overall huge improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OceanView Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 (edited) http://timetapestry....anerai-127.html That's almost a 5 year old comparison. I'm willing to bet the latest reps are much closer to the gen. Edited February 29, 2012 by OceanView Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest abasf Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 the old crown guards lever seems more gen than the new one... it sits closer to the case compared to the n factory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
