TeeJay Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Posted January 27, 2008 I agree.. the watch in THIS photo looks like the PVD 127. Domed crystal and polished gold hands. The watch in THIS photo is almost definately a 202/A With regards the watch in the top photo, it does not appear to have the second sweep at 9, although I would agree with your comement about the crystal and hands... That said, I still think the lettering on the lower half of the dial, looks too wide to just read "1950". Perhaps Sly had the good folks at OP put together something new for him

That said, I still think the lettering on the lower half of the dial, looks too wide to just read "1950". Perhaps Sly had the good folks at OP put together something new for him I think it is impossible to see if there is a second sweep at the 9 since the fat hour hand goes over it and the quality of the photo is bad. The text could read 1950 because it is smaller than the text on the top which is probably the Luminor Panerai. Personally I believe that 99% it is Bonati's 127 used for the promotional photos and then he wore the 202 to the shooting. Anyway.. it really doesn't matter the first watch since he wore a 202/A in the movie anyway..
madasboot Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 Can't tell if it's 44mm or 47mm...I'd suspect Sly to not have the biggest of wrists. must be a 47 otherwise he would wear it on the index finger...

Anyway.. it really doesn't matter the first watch since he wore a 202/A in the movie anyway.. That's true about the hour hand, but I think there would still be some sign of the second sweep (the markings, even if not the hand itself) The text is to the width of the '5' and '7' markers, but "1950" is only half-way to those points. Something which could suggest the same case as a 127, is that on the large photo, the crown guards have a light point on the side, which to me, looks more like light catching in the screw-hole, rather than light catching on the lever. Given they build the Daylight for Sly, I'm wondering if this might indeed be a similar scenario, where it could be including things like the 127 case and hands, but with a 'base' dial. It could even have 'luminor' on the top half of the dial and 'Panerai' on the lower half of the dial. That could at least explain the width of the text.
DemonSlayer Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 There are no reps currently for the 202/A or 203 yet are there?
rkdk Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 Come on guys. There is no way that he s wearing a 147 on the first pic. He arms would have to be humungus to make the watch look that small. Its the same watch, and the reflection looking like the crystal on the first pic, is just the bezel. Remember that the pvd coating on the gens is not as matte as on the davidsen reps we are used to. id definetly say pam base pvd of some sort.
Victoria Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 Vic, have you seen Cloverfield, yet? If so, what were your thoughts? Snuck in my opinion in the Lord Rasta thread. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&...st&p=390630 Didn't like it. And I WANTED to. To make this less OT, I saw a man wearing a PAM in the cinema! I was in the concessions stand, and he was milling in the lobby. But clear as day, there was a Luminor PAM on possibly the famous Xa-Mas Vintage strap. My heart raced so fast when I saw it. If I ever see a Fiddy, I think I'd faint.
jkarpas Posted January 27, 2008 Report Posted January 27, 2008 saw the movie last night, i agree with V it is definitely a pan 202 a or a 44mm PVD pam with sweeping secs at nine. Saw some other cool watches the other mercs had, i think i also saw a traser or sth like a tritium military watch. I loved the scene when they synced them My girl caught me staring at these guys wrists, she like sly's watch more though ! i got to buy a pvd pam now..
confused69u Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 Its probably a limited edition one he had customized because I'm sure he can afford to do that. For the tech savvy guys, the cam version it out for download now.
Watchmeister Posted January 28, 2008 Report Posted January 28, 2008 All I know is it is definitely PVD and definitely says Marina Militare on the bottom half of the dial. And I agree the numbers looked like tritium and fat. It could be 44m though. He may have a thick arm but he is only 5 foot 4 inches.
cool-arrow Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Here is a shot of the watch in the second half of the movie.
Dani Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 Kruz is right and its 44mm no question. i saw it as bright as day on the cinema but i em no ekspert in panerai models so cant say exactly wich one.
PATerai Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 the case looks like its shaped like the 47mm case, look at the square parts of the case around the bezel. on the 47mm case they are not as big as on the 44mm, i also spot a domed crystal?
ratchpot Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 came to Hawaii years ago and worked out one day at World gym .... he is actually like 5 ft. 3 or 4 inches ... amazing what camera angles will do You must really be tall because he is 5'9. And, believe me, he is not 5'9" tall... Wide maybe, but not tall... I have been hitting golf balls at Wentworth by his side and he is relatively short. Nice guy, though. He may have a thick arm but he is only 5 foot 4 inches. LOL at the above posts. So according to the above posts, in this picture either he's wearing 6-8 inch lifts or they are all around 5'4. Or perhaps confused69u is closest to the truth (which would mean Sly's wearing 2-3 inch lifts).
The Mentalist Posted February 3, 2008 Report Posted February 3, 2008 I saw Stallone in London once and it amazed me that he was the same height as me. I'm 5 8" so Stallone is probably around that mark.
doc savage Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 It seemed pretty reflective for PVD: This ana-digi watch was quartz: Is this a Luminox?
p550racer Posted February 4, 2008 Report Posted February 4, 2008 OK Gentlemen, From an inside source at Panerai. Stalone used 2 PAMs on the set. The prototype PVD 1950 (AKA Bonti's prototype PVD 1950). Of-course a 47mm. Sly wore this watch mostly for the promo shots and while directing and it also made it in a couple of scenes. However the PAM mostly worn during the shootings of the scenes was the Pre-V 5218 202-A (AKA the base PVD Marina Militare) which is of course a 44 mm. By the way polished PVD does reflect. It is DSN's matte PVD that is the ultimitate stealth machine Carpe Diem

Homer Posted February 12, 2008 Report Posted February 12, 2008 im going to the Rambo UK premier tonite.. il try get slys wrist shot when hes not looking
turboGUATE Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 Here are a couple of close up pics to prove the 202a Cheers!
rower Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 The ana-digi watch is the 5.11 H.R.T. Tactical Sniper Watch For a Demo of this watch: hxxp://www.telford-services.com/demo511.htm (cut and past link and replace "xx" with "tt") This is the Ultimate Snipers tool.
doc savage Posted February 27, 2008 Report Posted February 27, 2008 Cool watch, but I don't know if it's the "ultimate sniper's tool", you'd look pretty silly if you tried to snipe someone with a wristwatch. Nice touch though, using a watch made specifically for snipers for the movie's sharpshooter.
