Guest asad Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I would say it's looks like a GEN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I would say so. Since it is a Tritium dial, it probably came from a Submersible made before 2003. Maybe a 24. Even so, the Dealer is adamant that he is selling gen parts or else you can notify Panerai about this guy. My guess is that he is an AD from Taipei.

beano2004 Posted March 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Im sure it will be expensive..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anton Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 I'm watching it myself as well. If it doesn't end up snatched up by then, I will probably get it for an uncoming project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sssurfer Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Gen. Even the circles in the subdial match. The "T SWISS MADE T" looks a tiny bit too close to the "6", but I suppose it is the pic. (P.S. yes it's a 024). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babola Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 A pure caramel sweetness Gen it is, I agree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAMman Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 (edited) A gen for sure. Get one of the original plain bezel 024 reps, polish the bezel, add this dial, a Swiss 7750, a JF CG, a genuine (Kruzer) or Palp crown and you will have one cracker watch. However, if this gets bid up you will have spent a lot of dosh for a rep, but what's new? Edited March 10, 2008 by PAMman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Beano- You had to go there. Yes it is genuine and it will go for a high price. Here is my project (bezel, 199 improved crystal/cyclops, revised datewheel, gen crown, Jimmy CG, Ziggy dial relume, etc.): That dial is just screaming out buy me. Best of luck to everyone. I can even guess who the bidders will be. I suspect someone is willing to pay more than me as I do have Ziggy's fabulous dial. But there is only one way to find out.

peepshow Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Yep, gen, despite the uneven lume on the "2" in the 12 and the 6... Goes to show that even Panerai doesn't get all their dials perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmeister Posted March 10, 2008 Report Share Posted March 10, 2008 Wow, the listing has now disappeared due to an "error". I know what I offered and someone else has paid more than 1/3rd the cost of a gen. An idiot - but hopefully a happy one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect someone is willing to pay more than me as I do have The Zigmeister's fabulous dial. But there is only one way to find out. I think Fleabay ***ing bidders' IDs is a good thing. That way, when we're bidding for something PAM-related, forum members won't be able to see exactly who it is -- and jack up the price. All kidding aside, I wonder what happened? It smells like he got a private offer OR it was pulled because it wasn't a gen (and he got scared). Given the unanimity of opinions here, I doubt it.

UncleJay Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 It's gen, and by the looks of it was an old dial replaced in service. Note the case says "DESTRO" from another model. The Cartier straps and dial he's selling would suggest he worked in the Vendome service dept. BTW, I will have some gen dials available soon.

The Cartier straps and dial he's selling would suggest he worked in the Vendome service dept. The plastic case doesn't seem to be from dial. It says MX while a dial from the tritium era should say PAV something? Unless it My OEM A series cg is PAV and H series MX I agree though he worked on Vendome service.... BTW, I will have some gen dials available soon. For sale? Well that would be something interesting we have to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UncleJay Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Yes, the case if for a PAM0086 dial. Note the ANTHR on the case. BTW, MX and PAV were for diferent parts. PAV were usually straps and buckles in the early days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK471 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Paying a third the price of a gen seems extreme, but it's not always the cost of these watches that's the draw. Many people here (myself excluded) can afford to have any gen they want. But it's the hunt and the project that makes it fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAV were usually straps and buckles in the early days. case is maybe from a later L dial that has been put to the watch when he replaced the T dial. Also, I have 2 different cgs: the one is pav (a series) and the other mx (h series). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
