[Dario33]

Davidsen is now offering the vintage 2533.

Thoughts?

Always been happy with Davidsens offers, that watch is a must in a Panerai collection. But there are so many nice watches out there to buy on my list, can't decide.....

At first glance, the font looks to be off. Not sure about other visible flaws...

Opinions?

I really really do not want to be rude or ruin the watch for you, really... but in my opinion it is totally wrong, the dial markers are too large, the font is off, the hands are wrong, the crown is wrong

this is how its supposed to look like:

Miles off - crystal is totally wrong, case shape is clumsy and not refined at all. The crown is about the only thing that's almost right!!

Well said.. closer to a fantasy than a 2533...

I have also been looking at Davidsens vintage watches and really like them. I have one concern, and that is the screw down crown. Isnt it a risk that you wear it out rather quickly since you have to unscrew it and screw it every day as it is a manual movement?
