gioarmani Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Unless I'm just not seeing them, it appears spot-on to the gen: http://www.panerai.com/s_page.xpd?id_lingu...id_categoria=35 Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Compared with the pic in the OP official site, it lacks The 'Automatic' inscription below 'Panerai' at 6 o'clock. But the funny thing is that it is the OP pic that is unaccurate. The pics on all OP official catalogues show a dial exactly like the rep. I always asserted that the 050 is the best out-of-the-box PAM rep, and the 051 is the same level. Possibly it is even better, as the black-on-white marks even look a little thinner than their white-on-black 050 counterparts (a 1 micron too bold font being the only 'flaw' that the pickiest 050 detractors have been able to find -- if any). Even the numbers on the caseback are correct. If you want a rep that even a Panerista could not spot on without opening the caseback, go for it. BTW, I had my Josh 050 tested for waterproof by my watchsmith and it passed the test hands down. Good for swimming and even a few meters occasional diving.

b16a2 Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Unless there are two versions of the gen with different movements, it doesn't say automatic underneamth 'Panerai'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gioarmani Posted May 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 Here's a gen--they don't have the "automatic". Just sprung for the purchase from Josh--can't wait to see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted May 26, 2007 Report Share Posted May 26, 2007 While we are at it, I know that the 44mm bracelet tapers from 24 to 22. Does the gen bracelet on the 40mm taper down from 22 to 20? I know Michael always has one for sale but it is 90 degrees and I am lazy today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknoh Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 Weight is way off on this rep. If you hand it to someone, make sure they don't have one in the other hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
