adrianb10 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Wow Took the wife to Italy for a week , whilst there we went to Firenze ( Florance ) had to find the Panerai shop. I was wearing a Gen Tag Monacco at the time so they let me try on a few watches,have to say i have now fell in love with Panerai. I have a couple of Tag Gens and two Breitling reps as well as a Choppard rep, none of them in my opinion come close to the simplicity and workmanship of the Pams. I was that impressed i NEARLY parted with 4400 euros for the Pam 104. I have been reading the posts now for two days about the best pam reps, i am still confused. Can you please help and let me know how to get the BEST Pam rep i can, I am prepared to have mods dome if needed to get a accurate watch. Your help would be much appreciated as this trip to Italy has made me a MAD Pam fan. Ps I also tried the Hublot Big Bang....not impressed.

Watchmeister Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Aah, you have just posed the question for the ages. It will be helpful if you can give us a hint as to what you like - handwid or automatic, model, etc. Most things you can fix with enough time and money - crowns, crownguards, datefont. magnification, etc. A few things you can't - dial, caseback, etc. And depending on the particular model of watch you are interested in you can even figure out a rough estimate of how much to add for mods.

StormTooper4 Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Look for the 104 from our dealers, I'm sure your be pleased with it, Ive got a 229 which is similar, the best thing i did to it was buy an OEM Croc and a good deployant clasp. It really does make the watch Happy Hunting and we look forward to seeing your purchase ST4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Really like the look of the 90 and 104...if i had to choose i would say the 90 would be the BEST. Can you point me in the best direction to get the most accurate REP Thanks Adrian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulw Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Both the 090 and 104 are cool Watches. Think it's something about the hands of the autos compared to the manual wind that sets them apart. I have both and the 104 is more accurate. The 104 case is good. the 090 has a date pusher on the left side which screems fake. There are a couple of versions of the 104 with the best versions currently not available. Hope that helps.

jjfesq Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I think the date window on the autos scream fake and the manual movement is way more reliable than the a7750 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

professor_yaffle1 Posted August 7, 2008 Report Share Posted August 7, 2008 Yes, very good choice - I'm wearing my DSN 111 at the moment solid movement, good lume, etc. It's on rubber today, was on bracelet yesterday - very versatile. You do realise though, that your current dilemma, and the whole "should I get this one, or this one" question will soon fade into insignificance when you realise that, a) you want them all and b ) you can buy as many as you can afford Happy hunting and good luck!
