plaifender Posted May 10, 2007 Report Share Posted May 10, 2007 Forgive me if this has already been posted but i couldnt find any answers in my search. Are there any Panerai officianados in here that know if there is any real difference between the 1950 Flyback Regatta and the 1950 Regatta Rattrapante? It appears to be that apart from the names written on the dial of each. the only difference is their year of production. 2006 and 2007 respectively. Anyone know anything else?? p.s. anyone here have caseback comparison pics of a gen pam253 vs. a rep? Im just about to purchase a pam253 and was wondering how obviously different the movement of the genuine Unitas looks in the seethru caseback compared to the Asian Valijoux in the reps... would anyone here be able to tell a rep from a gen just by looking at the seethru caseback of a panerai?

In response, i'm already aware of what the flyback and rattrapante functions mean in the watch world. My question is if Panerai distinguishes FLYBACK and Rattrapante as different movements. Some movements on certain chronographs are referred to as Flyback functions even though they are clearly, more specifically Rattrapante or return-in-flight movements(retour-en-vol). I guess my question is if the functions of each chronograph are distinct or if Panerai decided to rename the flyback a Rattrapante to be more specific in it's ability to split seconds. A rattrapante generally needs at least two second hads and both the rattrapante and flyback have 2 second counters...... I'M CONFUSED. In anycase.. does the one button reset apply to the Flyback reps available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
