Smab Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Recently there has been quite a few ceramic case reps getting on the market. Some PAMS, some IWC's among others. When I first ordered what I believed was a ceramic PAM380, I only later found it was infact a hybrid model, released by H-Maker, offered by Perfect Clones and TrustyTime among others. As they state on their websites, "PAM380 custom installation in 292 ceramic caseset". So the result is among the coolest dials (with the sea&sky logo) sausage dial (not sandwich, like the true PAM292 and PAM292J "pig dial" should be), hi-beat 21600 manual movement, and superlumed markers. Even it is a fantasy model, I think Panerai should have released this beauty them selves, I feel it is a model they are missing:-) Or "the ceramic PAM missing link"! Here it is: Edited April 9, 2013 by Smab Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Are they in fact making ceramic cases or using DLC on SS instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atomic_doug Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 (edited) Don't worry, it'll show up eventually. Being a Panerai designer is the easiest job in Switzerland. Take a model that was made more than 20 years ago and: - If it's steel, make a black one, or a titanium one. - If it's 44mm, make a 47mm one. - If it's got sapphire, make one with plexi. - If it doesn't have a logo, add one. - If it's got white lume, give it brown lume. Tell the 'Risti it's a limited edition so you don't have to make too many of them, then repeat ...even it is a fantasy model, I think Panerai should have released this beauty them selves...
